I want to be able to get married and have a baby.” “I was told right now, in the conservatorship, I’m not able to get married or have a baby. I have an IUD [intrauterine device] inside of myself right now so I don’t get pregnant,” she said. “I wanted to take the IUD out, so I can start trying to have a baby.”
Britney was freed from her 13-year conservatorship on November 12, 2021.
Congratulations Britney and Sam!
