Britney Spears has entered a treatment facility in the United States weeks before she is due in a California court on 4 May over a DUI charge, with her representative confirming the move and reports claiming to link the decision to an intervention by her sons.
The development follows Spears' arrest on 4 March after authorities reported her BMW was being driven erratically at high speed on a motorway. California Highway Patrol said she showed signs of impairment and took field sobriety tests after being pulled over.
