A Breakdown of Britney Spears's 13-Year Conservatorship Battle and How It Ended

In response to Britney's June 23, 2021, conservatorship hearing, her ex-husband and father of her two sons made a statement to People via his attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan. "[Kevin] certainly respects Britney and only hopes the best for her because when the best for her is achieved, it's the best for their kids. The kids love their mother and he wants there to be a healthy and strong relationship."

Kaplan added of Britney challenging her conservatorship at the time, "If it's what's best for her, Kevin supports it . . . If she's strong and healthy and wants to be in control of her own life, and can do that in a reasonable, responsible fashion, then more power to her."
