On April 23, Asghari told TMZ he thinks Spears' decision to enter a treatment facility is "great," calling anything that furthers healing a positive step. He added that it is good when the person is in charge of their own care. Asked if he had been in contact since she entered treatment, he said he had not.
A representative confirmed on April 12 that Spears voluntarily checked into a treatment facility after her March 4 arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence. She was released the following day. A spokesperson described the incident as "completely inexcusable," and said Spears will comply with the law while loved ones work on a plan to support her and that her sons would spend time with her.
