Britney Spears' Inner Circle 'Scared' for Her Well-Being After Rep Denies She Had Chaotic Outburst Post-Rehab: 'People Are Running Out of Answers'

Britney Spears' inner circle is allegedly in crisis mode.

Though the signer's rep shut down allegations she was wielding a knife and scaring people during an outing at a Los Angeles restaurant, an insider claimed the denial is just a front for the public.

Even more troubling, the alleged incident occurred after her stay in rehab, which followed her March DUI arrest.

"People around Britney are exhausted, scared, and running out of answers," an insider spilled to Rob Shuter's Substack. "If this is how she behaves in public, imagine what happens behind closed doors."

According to the source, her inner circle had high hopes that getting help would finally set her on a good path, but they now fear things are just getting worse.

As OK! reported, prior to dining out, the mom-of-two, 44, was seen buying alcohol despite leaving rehab just two weeks earlier.

In an initial report, sources claimed the pop star was yelling and barking like a dog while out to dinner. They alleged she left the table a mess and even tried to light a cigarette inside.

One man who claimed they sat near Spears during the ordeal called it "a WILD experience."

"She just left and everyone in the restaurant turned and started talking about it. An INSANE dining experience," he wrote on X. "One diner feared for her life. This is not a joke…"

However, her rep declared the allegations were being "completely blown out of proportion."

"Britney was enjoying a quiet dinner with her assistant and bodyguard. She was simply telling the story about how her dog was barking at the neighbors," they expressed in a public statement. "At no point did she put anyone in danger with a knife. She was cutting her hamburger in half."

"This constant attack on everything that she does and this is exactly what happened 20 years ago when the media tried to depict Britney as a bad person," they continued. "This is ridiculous and it needs to stop now."

When the Woman in Me author was first pulled over for swerving while driving in March, her manager, Cade Hudson, called the arrest "an unfortunate incident that is completely inexcusable."

"Britney is going to take the right steps and comply with the law, and hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney’s life," he shared. "Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time."

At the time, he added her loved ones were "going to come up with an overdue needed plan to set her up for success for her well-being."

Up until the May 13 reports, it seemed Spears was on a better track, as she went to rehab — but left early — and reconnected with her two sons, Jayden James, 19, and Sean Preston Federline, 20.

Earlier this month, the "Toxic" crooner pleaded guilty to a "wet reckless" charge instead of a DUI, resulting in 12 months probation. She was also ordered to one day of jail, but it was credited as time served.
