Britney Spears and Adnan Ghalib Together Again

After meeting at the Beverly Hills Hotel, the couple drove to the law offices of Adam Streisand, the lawyer who, on Britney’s behalf, objected to Jamie Spears being named her co-conservator earlier this week. In court, Streisand had argued Britney wanted the Northern Bank Trust and Howard Grossman, her business manager, to act as conservators, and not her father because she allegedly did not trust him. Following his statement, the commissioner asked Streisand to leave the courtroom giving Jamie the power to remain a co-conservator.

Shortly after arriving at Streisand’s L.A. office, Britney and Ghalib left the building, managing to escape the large crowd of paparazzi who had spent the afternoon following them.

Britney’s first afternoon of freedom began around noon when a private security detail escorted the singer from the hospital, according to the Los Angeles Times, which first reported her release. She was then spotted driving around Los Angeles looking calm and carefree and wearing a short purple dress and plaid fedora.

UCLA Medical Center Media Liaison Mark Wheeler told Us that the hospital will "absolutely not" confirm or deny that Spears was released. Wheeler said the hospital has no plans to release a statement at this time due to patient confidentiality laws.

A law enforcement source told TMZ.com that UCLA released her "because she was no longer required to stay there after 11:30 AM" and that she was no longer deemed a threat to herself or others.

Spears was involuntarily committed to treatment for bipolar disorder on January 31 and was expected to remain hospitalized for another 10 days.
