Britney Spears has returned to Instagram

Britney Spears has returned to Instagram.

After a string of erratic posts and a public clash with her former husband, Kevin Federline, the 43-year-old pop star appeared to deactivate her account last Sunday (02.11.25), with her page showing a message that it “may have been removed”.

Returning to Instagram on Friday (07.11.25), the Toxic hitmaker reflected on her "crazy" year and encouraged her followers to build "boundaries". 

Alongside a screenshot of one of her videos in racy lingerie, she wrote: “So much has happened this year, it’s crazy … I try to live within my means and the book, ‘Draw the Circle’ is an incredible perspective.

“Get your ballerina, circle, and own your boundaries. It’s incredibly strict and somewhat of a form of prayer but with so many endless possibilities in life, it’s important to do you and keep it simple. I know there is a confusing side too. The devil is in the details but we can get to that later (sic)"

Fans have shown concern since Britney shared videos of herself dancing with visible bruises on her arms and cryptic captions about her sons, Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19.

In one post, Britney appeared in a plunging pink swimsuit and knee-high black boots, posing in front of a mirror in her Los Angeles home.

The background showed piles of clothes on the floor, prompting renewed discussion about her wellbeing.

In another clip last month, she revealed a “horrible” leg injury, explaining she had “fell down the stairs” and her leg “snaps out now and then”.

She said: “Not sure if it’s broken but for now it’s snapped in!!! Thank u god.”

Fans expressed alarm online.

One wrote on X: “Hope she’s getting good care and rest.”

Another added: “Britney needs help, that was painful to watch.”

Britney captioned the same video with a message referencing her faith and her children, saying: “My boys had to leave and go back to Maui… this is the way I express myself and pray through art… father who art in heaven… I’m not here for concern or pity, I just want to be a good woman and be better… and I do have wonderful support, so have a brilliant day !!!”

The posts came amid ongoing tensions with her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, who recently released a memoir, You Thought You Knew, containing new allegations about Britney’s behaviour during their marriage and parenting years.

Kevin claimed Britney once “punched” Sean in the face and, on separate occasions, was seen by their sons standing in their bedroom doorway “clutching a knife”.
