Pop icon Britney Spears’ dad Jamie has reportedly been rushed to the hospital with a “bad infection” and is “severely ill”.
It has been alleged that the 71-year-old was admitted for a severe infection and is undergoing treatment for that and some other alleged health issues. A source told Page Six that he may need to undergo surgery to remedy the issue.
A different source told the outlet: “Jamie has been suffering with a bad infection that has required surgery. He has been hospitalised for weeks in a special infectious disease facility.”

In the past it had also been alleged that he had been hospitalised after suffering from complications related to a knee replacement he received in the mid-2000s. It’s said he’s dealing with the infection now following the complications from that alleged surgery.
This comes after Britney was reportedly “furious” when her father allegedly moved back in with her sister, Jamie Lynne Spears, following his stay in rehab. A source close to the Spears family told Daily Mail that the 71-year-old moved to Jamie Lynn’s home in Louisiana after he left rehab in July.
According to the outlet Britney has been left fuming due to the ongoing drama between her and her parents. The source told the publication: “This obviously infuriates Britney for so many reasons.
“She feels betrayed that her sister is putting up her dad and allowing him to watch her kids after what he did to her.” The insider added: “She cannot believe that Jamie is caring for Jamie Lynn’s daughters when he was partially to blame for Britney’s falling out with her two sons.
“Jamie just got out of rehab, but is already drinking again, which worries Lynne and Jamie Lynn.” Britney fell out with her father Jamie after her 13-year conservatorship finally ended in 2021.

In an Instagram post in October that year, she told her father to “burn in hell”. A source told Page Six in August that Britney is now on a healing journey and that “reconciliation with Jamie is not in the cards” for the Circus singer.
