Britney Spears' Surprising New Chapter: What You Didn't Know

Since being freed from her conservatorship on November 12, 2021, Britney Spears has made one thing clear: She's human. "I'm extremely weak but through weakness they say you will find the most strength," she wrote on Instagram in August.

The past five years haven't been simple for the Princess of Pop, 44. She's gotten married and divorced and suffered a miscarriage, but she's also found her voice with a bestselling memoir and two standalone singles. After selling her music catalog, she faced a difficult stretch this year, with a DUI arrest followed by a stay in rehab. Through it all, she's been rebuilding her relationship with her sons.

Away from the headlines, a source exclusively tells Us Spears actually "lives a much quieter" life: "Her main creative outlets are dance and Instagram. She wakes up, sets up her tripod and starts recording videos of herself to post. It's like therapy for her."
