Britney Spears is addressing her estranged father's leg amputation after three years. In a since-deleted Instagram post shared on Sunday, September 13, the Princess of Pop shared a throwback picture of her walking with her two sons, Sean and Jayden, as she held the latter's hand.
In the post's caption, Britney appeared to draw parallels between her father's leg amputation and her own symbolic inability to use her own feet until she broke free of her 13-year conservatorship. The 44-year-old reflected on her past struggles and the strict control she faced under her family's legal guardianship.
The Grammy-winner continued, 'For 15 years I was never allowed to say my name in the land of the free and travel spontaneously.' Britney added that her recent trips to Mexico awakened her 'inner child,' revealing that she 'never felt so alive' despite the lingering trauma of her past.
Jamie Spears had his right leg amputated following complications from his knee replacement surgery. He was recently seen attending family events in a wheelchair, pictured alongside his ex-wife, Lynne Spears, and Britney's eldest son Sean Preston.
