American singer Britney Spears said that she does not believe in God anymore after losing her faith for the reason of her years-long conservatorship. She also blames her family for the way they treated her.
God would not allow the way my children and my family have treated me: Britney Spears
The 40-year-old singer’s former husband Kevin Federline and one of their sons, Jayden James, spoke on “60 Minutes Australia” regarding their feelings and their relationship with Spears. Jayden James said in the middle of the interview that his relationship with Britney Spears could be “fixed” if she gets “better mentally.”
In a recent voice recording, ‘Princess of Pop’ said “I’m an atheist, y’all.”
The “Oops! I Did It Again” singer almost spent 14 years under a conservatorship managed by her father which controlled nearly every aspect of her life, spoke about losing her faith in a voice memo shared to Instagram on Monday, 5th September.
According to Page Six, which deciphered the audio before it was deleted, spears said “God would not allow that to happen to me if a God existed. I don’t believe in God anymore because of the way my children and my family have treated me. There is nothing to believe in anymore. I’m an atheist, y’all.”
This month Jayden turns 16, and his elder brother, Sean Preston, turns 17. With her ex-husband Kevin Federline, Spears had two boys. Federline was also interviewed and has prime custody of the children.
In June, the two teens refused to attend the wedding of their mother to Sam Asghari. Jayden shared that he and his brother no longer spend time with their mom yet hope to connect again the time she gets “better mentally.”
Further, he defended his grandfather Jamie Spears, saying he “was just trying to be a father” when he placed Spears in the conservatorship.
In the month of November, after the judge released Spears from the conservatorship, she has talked about the sufferings of abuse which she had faced under the legal arrangement, which had not disallowed her father to set out personal, financial and health decisions, and for over a decade the way she parented her children.
Often times Spears has alleged the other family members, including her mother and sister, of failing to safeguard and assist her.
“It saddens me not one of you have valued me as a person,” said the singer of her sons in the clip. “You’ve witnessed how my family has been to me, and that’s all you know. Like I said, I feel you all secretly like to say something’s wrong with me.” [H/T Huffpost]
