Britney Spears made a horrifying revelation about having an IUD in her body but not being allowed to go have it removed.
“I want to be able to get married and have a baby. I was told I’m not able to get married,” the 39-year-old superstar, who is dating Sam Asghari, told the court in her statement on Wednesday (June 23). “I have an IUD inside me so I won’t get pregnant but this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out.”
Now, Planned Parenthood’s CEO has released a statement standing in solidarity with Britney, and all women who face “reproductive coercion.”

“We stand in solidarity with Britney and all women who face reproductive coercion. Your reproductive health is your own — and no one should make decisions about it for you,” Planned Parenthood president and CEO Alexis McGill Johnson tweeted. She also added the hashtag #FreeBritney.
Dr. Krishna Upadhya, vice president of quality care and health equity at Planned Parenthood Federation of America, told CBS that Britney‘s situation “is unacceptable and highlights the critical issue of reproductive coercion.”
“Unfortunately, it is all too common for people to experience relationships where someone abuses their power and exerts control over another person’s reproductive decisions,” the doctor added. “No one should be pressured into a decision around whether or not they should use birth control, or which method to use and when.”
