In the screenshot posted to her Instagram story, Aguilera wrote, “These past few days I’ve been thinking about Britney and everything she is going through. It is unacceptable that any woman or human, wanting to be in control of their own destiny might not be allowed to live life as they wish.”

“To be silenced, ignored, bullied, or denied support by those ‘close’ to you is the most depleting, devastating, and demeaning thing imaginable. The harmful mental and emotional damage this can take on a human spirit is nothing to be taken lightly.”

During Britney‘s court appearance she explained that she wanted to have more children with her boyfriend Sam Asghari but can’t because she has an IUD that her conservators refuse to let her remove, because they do not want her to conceive. Aguilera responded to the heartbreaking claims and wrote, “Every woman must have the right to her own body, her own reproductive system, her own privacy, her own space, her own healing, and her own happiness.”

Aguilera wasn’t done and shared another screenshot explaining, “While I am not behind the closed doors of this very layered & personal yet public conversation — all I can do is share from my heart on what I’ve heard, read and seen in the media. The conviction and desperation of this plea for freedom leads me to believe that this person I once knew has been living without compassion or decency from those in control.”
