After Hilton was asked by host Andy Cohen if the two pals had seen each other recently she said: “I saw her this summer. We’ve had dinners, I saw her in Malibu,””I just love her so much,” she continued. “I feel like if you are an adult, you should be able to live your life and not be controlled.”
She continues: I think that maybe stems from me being controlled so much so I can understand how that would feel and I can’t imagine right now if that was still happening to me,” she added of Spears’ conservatorship. “After just working your whole life and working so hard, she’s this icon, and I just feel like she has no control of her life whatsoever and I just don’t think that’s fair.”
Then Cohen asked Hilton if the drama surrounding her conservatorship is “something that you talk to her about as a friend,” to which she replied she doesn’t.
She answered: No, I don’t like bringing things up like that,” she explained. “She is so sweet and so innocent and such a nice girl. We just talk about happy things. Music, fashion … fun things.”
She added: “I never like to bring up negative things and make people feel uncomfortable, so I’ve never talked about it with her.”
Britney’s conservatorship was first placed in 2008 with her father, Jamie Spears, being named the permanent conservator of her affairs and attorney Andrew Wallet the permanent co-conservator of her estate.
The pop songstresses more-than-decade long conservatorship was also recently prolonged on Aug. 19 to Feb. 1, 2021 after a May hearing was previously extended due to the novel coronavirus outbreak.
