James P. Spears, Ms. Spears’s father, who is known as Jamie, first petitioned the court for authority over his adult daughter’s life and finances in early 2008, citing her very public mental health struggles and possible substance abuse amid a child custody battle.

Reproductive rights advocates condemned the situation as a violation of her rights. In her Instagram post, Ms. Spears joked that Mr. Asghari — whom she now refers to as her husband — suggested that she was “food pregnant” after a trip to Hawaii. In explosive testimony last year, Ms. Spears called the conservatorship that had governed her life for 13 years “abusive,” saying the people who managed it had refused to let her get her IUD removed so she could try to have another child. “I want to be able to get married and have a baby,” Ms. Spears said last June. “I was told right now in the conservatorship I am not able to get married or have a baby.”
