Britney Spears has a complicated relationship with her family — having made several accusations against them for their actions during the 13-year conservatorship they held over her — but lately she seems to be trying to heal some of those wounds. After a “wonderful” birthday reunion with mom Lynne Spears, Britney is allegedly also considering reconciling with her father. Jamie Spears has apparently been dealing with health issues, and news of the possible reunion with his older daughter comes amid reports that he recently had his leg amputated.

It was reported in October that Jamie Spears was “severely ill” and had been battling an infection that required surgery. TMZ reports that due to that infection, he had his leg amputated a month ago. The site reports that the Spears patriarch was in the hospital for weeks and underwent five surgeries to attempt to contain the infection, but the efforts were unsuccessful. Doctors reportedly decided amputation was the only way to proceed.
