Spears Detained in Hospital

Britney Spears was taken to the hospital - again - after police were called to her home due to a custody dispute, according to CNN. CNN reports that after three hours, Spears returned the children to Federline and was wheeled out of her home on a gourney and taken to the hospital for psychological evaluation.

Spears was committed to the psychiatric hospital for a 72-hour hold for being a danger to herself or others.

On Sunday it was decided that Spears would be retained in the psychiatric hospital for further treatment, according to Yahoo Music News.

The same report from Yahoo asserted that Court Commisioner Reva Goetz ruled on Friday that Spears' father, James Spears, should take over her financial and personal affairs because Spears does not currently hold the ability to attend to these aspects of her life.

Spears' Family Accuses Dr. Phil of Crossing the Line

The Spears' family asserts that Dr. Phil betrayed them by making public statements about Britney Spears' mental health, after he visited her over the weekend in the hospital.

Apparently, as this report claims, the family asked Dr. Phil to come to the hospital, but they made him aware that they did not want the public to know about his visit or her condition.

However, earlier this week, I saw a preview for a Dr. Phil show on his visit to the hospital with Britney Spears. This article claims that he had, in fact, planned to do this show, but that he dropped it as he thought it may cause the Speares' family too much stress.

Dr. Phil has been quoted as saying Britney Spears needs a lot of help, and he does not regret trying to get her into a quality treatment program.
