Yesterday she wrote on Instagram: “My family hurt me! There has been no justice and probably never will be!”

The Sun can reveal the reason it didn’t go to court was over fears that Britney, 42, would be put on the stand and forced to re-live her most embarrassing moments.

Amid concerns for her mental health in 2008, she was put under a ­conservatorship, with her dad managing her financial and personal affairs.

In a statement in court in 2021 before the conservatorship was revoked, she said: “My dad and anyone involved in this conservatorship, including my management… they should be in jail.”

Britney and Jamie are yet to comment on the legal settlement.
