Britney Spears’ father, Jamie Spears, has been hospitalized again amid serious health concerns, according to Page Six. The publication quotes a source saying Jamie is battling a serious infection that requires surgical intervention.
Insider information indicates he has been receiving care in a specialized infectious diseases ward for several weeks, with one confidant describing him as critically ill. This marks a second hospitalization for the 71-year-old in recent months. In August, Spears was admitted for issues related to knee surgery she underwent years earlier, and TMZ later reported that Jamie had lost a noticeable amount of weight.
In September 2021, Jamie Spears was removed from his guardianship over his daughter following Britney Spears’s public testimony about their family dynamics. She has described having limited control over her life, including medical and financial decisions, under her father’s authority. The current health updates add another chapter to the longstanding public conversation about her family’s influence and the conservatorship arrangements that have drawn widespread attention.
Recent developments have also included reports that Britney Spears traveled to a distant location after police were involved at the scene, though details remain unclear. In related remarks, a TV host previously condemned those spreading rumors about Jamie Spears’s health, calling such speculation despicable and inappropriate. These events continue to unfold in the broader narrative surrounding the Spears family and their public roles.
