Britney Spears is said to be “haunted” by fears of losing her freedom again after her recent DUI arrest, with insiders claiming the pop star is grappling with severe anxiety that could reopen the door to the kind of control she fought to escape.

The Toxic singer, 44, was arrested near her home in Thousand Oaks, California, on March 4 after allegedly swerving between lanes.

She was taken to a hospital for testing before being booked into a cell in the early hours of March 5 and released three hours later.

Authorities are also examining Adderall found in her possession.

The incident comes four years after a judge ended the conservatorship that governed Spears’ finances and personal life for 13 years – a legal arrangement she publicly condemned as restrictive and invasive.
