Jamie Spears would rather his daughter didn't need guardianship.

This is in any case what the father of Britney Spears said, through his lawyer.

The man has been under fire since the release of the documentary

Framing Britney Spears

, which reveals how he took control of his finances and talks about the efforts of some fans to free her from this tutelage.

But according to his legal representative, Vivian Lee Thoreen, interviewed by CNN, he too would like to end it.

However, he believes that the ball is in his daughter's court and not his.

“Jamie would love nothing more than to see Britney not needing a legal guardian.

Whether or not this tutelage ends really depends on Britney.

If she wants to end her guardianship, she can bring a motion to end it.

Jamie isn't saying he's the perfect dad or that he'll be getting the "Father of the Year" award.

Like all parents, they don't always have the same eye for what Britney might want.

But Jamie believes every decision he made was in his best interest, ”she said.

No comment

Contacted by CNN, Britney Spears' lawyers did not wish to speak on "an ongoing case".

While rumors suggest that Jamie Spears wants to do everything to prevent other people from having an eye on the guardianship and its way of managing it [especially since the appointment of the Bessemer fund as cotutor of the fortune of the popstar , estimated at $ 60 million], Vivian Lee Thoreen says it is just the opposite.

singer's father

simply wishes his family could continue to be involved, for his sake.

“Jamie has never disputed or objected to the appointment of Bessemer as his 'co-curator'.

According to some, Jamie tried at the last hearing to gain more power than his co-conservator, which is completely inaccurate.

What we argued is that Jamie and his co-curator should have equal power, which has always been consistent, ”says the lawyer.

Britney Spears' next guardianship hearing is scheduled for March 17.
