Singer-actor Justin Timberlake came out in support to his ex-girlfriend Britney Spears, after she recorded a statement in a court, pleading with a judge to end her controversial conservatorship.

“After what we saw today, we should all be supporting Britney at this time,” the 40-year-old singer wrote on Twitter, before alluding to their tumultuous courtship in the early 2000s.

“Regardless of our past, good and bad, and no matter how long ago it was… what’s happening to her is just not right.”

During her 20-minute speech in court on Wednesday, Spears made a series of shocking revelations and condemned her conservatorship and those in control of her life and finances.

Spears told Judge Brenda Penny that she’s forced to use an intrauterine device (IUD), despite wanting to have more children.

 “I was told right now in the conservatorship, I’m not able to get married or have a baby. I have (an) IUD inside of (me) right now so I don’t get pregnant,” told the court.

Timberlake addressed Spears’ comments in his tweet, adding: “No woman should ever be restricted from making decisions about her own body.”

Timberlake wrote that he and his wife Jessica Biel send “our love” and “absolute support” to the singer. “We hope the courts, and her family make this right and let her live however she wants to live.”

Timberlake recently faced backlash for his treatment of Spears following the release of  the “Framing Britney Spears” documentary in February.

“I have seen the messages, tags, comments, and concerns and I want to respond. I am deeply sorry for the times in my life where my actions contributed to the problem, where I spoke out of turn, or did not speak up for what was right,” Timberlake wrote in a statement posted on Instagram. “I specifically want to apologize to Britney Spears and Janet Jackson both individually, because I care for and respect these women and I know I failed.”

Other Hollywood celebrities including Mariah Carey, Khloé Kardashian also showed their support of Spears on social media.
