Friends and family of Britney Spears are expressing concern after Page Six reported that the singer is living in a cluttered Thousand Oaks, California, home where apparent dog feces were visible in recent social media posts.
Page Six, citing unnamed insiders, quoted a source saying Spears is “having an episode right now” and that those close to her have “seen this over and over again.” The source said her behavior is being monitored but that family and friends are not planning an intervention. Another relative told Page Six they are “worried” and described Spears as “not doing well at all,” adding that she is “not functioning like an adult would function.” Page Six said it reached out to Spears’ representative for comment and did not immediately receive a response.
The concern follows posts last month in which Spears, 43, shared clips of herself singing and dancing inside her estate while wearing what she described as pajamas. In those videos, which she posted to social platforms and disabled comments on, viewers noted cluttered floors and what appeared to be dog waste. Spears sang covers of Rihanna’s "Unfaithful" and Prince’s "Kiss," and spoke with a British accent in some clips. In one post she wrote, “Messing around with lighting and cleaning my house like no tomorrow 😳😳😳😂😂😂.”
Fans reacted on social media after the posts were shared. One user on X, formerly Twitter, wrote, “God whats happened to poor Britney, is this the price of fame.” Page Six reported that followers expressed concern both for Spears’ well-being and for the safety and care of her pets.
Spears, who ended a 13-year conservatorship in November 2021, has posted more frequently on social media in recent years. Some of those posts have sparked debate and concern, including images in which she was unclothed and videos showing her performing with knives. She has defended her choices publicly at times, and supporters have argued for her autonomy since the conservatorship ended.
People close to Spears told Page Six they have long noticed patterns in her behavior and are watching but are reluctant to impose an intervention. The reports do not include details of any medical assessment or involvement by authorities. There has been no public statement from Spears’ camp confirming the family’s characterization of her current state.
Representatives for Spears did not immediately respond to requests for comment forwarded by Page Six. The singer’s recent social media activity remains public in some respects, though comments were disabled on the specific posts that prompted concern. Family members’ statements and unnamed insider accounts are the basis for the reporting; no medical or legal actions tied to the situation have been reported publicly.
Reporting on celebrities’ private health matters often relies on statements from those close to them and public posts by the individuals involved. Spears’ case has drawn sustained attention since the end of her conservatorship in 2021, and discussions about her well-being continue to surface as she maintains a high profile on social media.
