Britney Spears Talks ‘Spiritual Journey’ Following DUI Case, Rehab Stay: ‘All a Blessing in Disguise’

The singer was sentenced to probation after taking a plea deal for her March DUI arrest.

Britney Spears made her first public statement since a March DUI arrest resulted in a stay in a rehab facility. Though she did not specifically reference the case or her time in treatment, Spears, 44, was back on Instagram on Saturday (May 10) with a post alluding to recent headlines.

It opened with a story about going to a pet store with her kids to look at a baby snake — with a shot of a beautiful albino ball python wrapped around someone’s hand — before pivoting into a more personal tone. “Snakes are symbolic of good health, higher consciousness, and pure luck … I’m so damn thankful to my friends and so many new beautiful people I have met through my spiritual journey,” Spears said without going into detail about her journey.
