Britney Spears' father's leg amputated due to infection

As TMZ learned just now, a month ago, Britney Spears' father, her former manager and guardian Jamie Spears, had his leg amputated. Now the 42-year-old singer, who spent many years feuding and suing her father over custody, is trying to improve relations with him, the tabloid notes.

Sources told the publication that Jamie Spears had a massive infection in one of his legs that left him hospitalized for several weeks. He underwent five unsuccessful surgeries to contain the infection, and doctors decided amputation was the only option.

Jamie Spears is not feeling well right now. It is noted that he had other health problems. In addition, the man was depressed by the stream of criticism that fell upon him because of the guardianship of Spears: he considers all the accusations against him unfair. The tabloid writes that "it was Jamie who moved from Louisiana to care for his daughter in 2007": "Many people who were involved in the case back then say Jamie may have saved Britney's life."

The tabloid's sources say Britney has softened towards her father recently. She said she missed him and wanted to send him money to help. As for Jamie, he dreams of reconciliation with his daughter.

Let us recall that in November 2021, a Los Angeles court ruled to completely terminate the guardianship of Britney Spears and to permanently remove her father Jamie Spears from the artist’s life, who was the singer’s guardian for 13 years and had full control over her personal life and financial matters. Recently, not for the first time, Spears' fans began to suspect that she has mental health problems.
