[After a break in the hearing, Mr Ingham said Spears
had told him that now she has spoken
out on the record and made her feelings
on the conservatorship clear,
the star is in favour of keeping future proceedings private.
He also said he will discuss the issues of
formally filing for termination of the conservatorship
with the star and the introduction of
a private counsel to represent her.
Judge Penny said a decision on terminating
the conservatorship cannot be made until
the formal request is lodged with the court.
Stars including Mariah Carey and Halsey were
among those sharing messages of support
online for Spears after the hearing.
"We love you Britney!!! Stay strong," Carey tweeted,
while Halsey wrote: "Bless Britney
and I hope with my whole heart she is awarded
freedom from this abusive system.
She deserves it more than anything.
I admire her courage speaking up for herself today."]
