It’s on, it’s off, and it’s on again. Yes, I am talking about the relationship between Britney Spears and paparazzo Adnan Ghalib. However Adnan has insisted it has always been ‘on’; and his latest claim stands up for the singer’s sanity.

The 35 year old photographer says Britney is neither crazy nor suicidal; and that she loves sons Sean, two, and Jayden, one, too much to kill herself.

The boys were at the centre of a police standoff last month that saw Britney, 26, admitted to hospital. The snapper said: “She was afraid. It’s just helplessness, loss of control. It doesn’t make you crazy. She’s no different from any mum. She needs them.”

Need them or not Britney has been denied visitation rights after missing yet another court hearing regarding the matter. Although she did actually attend court, she fled before seeing the judge. As a result Judge Scott Gordon refused to restore the access rights that were suspended after her breakdown.

Oh dear…
