Rudolph wrote: “It has been over 2 1/2 years since Britney and I last communicated, at which time she informed me she wanted to take an indefinite work hiatus. Earlier today, I became aware that Britney had been voicing her intention to officially retire. As you know, I have never been a part of the conservatorship nor its operations, so I am not privy to many of these details. I was originally hired at Britney’s request to help manage and assist her with her career.”
He added: “And as her manager, I believe it is in Britney’s best interest for me to resign from her team as my professional services are no longer needed. I will always be incredibly proud of what we accomplished over our 25 years together. I wish Britney all the health and happiness in the world, and I’ll be there for her if she ever needs me again, just as I always have been.”
Rudolph oversaw Britney Spears’ career from the mid-1990s when she became one of the world’s biggest pop acts. Rudolph has also managed other artists, including Miley Cyrus, Toni Braxton and Justin Timberlake.
The news comes after Spears’ court hearing, in which she called her conservatorship “abusive.” She has claimed that she had been forced to perform and take medication against her will. The next court hearing is scheduled for July 14.
