Britney Spears tried to keep a low profile during a recent lunch outing in New York City, but one detail about her visit is raising eyebrows.
The pop star, 44, spent a little more than an hour at the restaurant RinTinTin on Thursday, October 15, where eyewitnesses claimed she drank three glasses of red wine, Page Six reported on Friday, October 16.
Spears appeared to be trying to avoid attention during the outing, covering her face with a scarf and wearing sunglasses inside the restaurant, per the report.
Outside, the “Toxic” singer continued trying to shield herself from photographers while her driver held an umbrella in the rain, according to the outlet. After getting into a waiting vehicle, she was spotted smoking cigarettes and filming something on her cellphone.
The outing came seven months after Spears was arrested for DUI in California.
As Star previously reported, in May, her attorney pleaded guilty on her behalf to a reduced charge of reckless driving involving alcohol, often called a “wet reckless,” per Page Six. Spears was sentenced to one year of informal probation and ordered to complete a three-month alcohol education program.
The singer also recently reflected on her 13-year conservatorship, which ended in November 2021.
“I’m bitter, all the hours, seconds, time, and secretly, subconsciously knowing my capabilities as a woman,” she wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post, Page Six reported.
According to the outlet, the “…Baby One More Time” singer also claimed that the court-ordered conservatorship, which ended in November 2021, prevented her from traveling freely or accessing her own money for years.
Earlier in October, the singer enjoyed a happier family outing with her sons, Sean Preston, 21, and Jayden James, 20, whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline, at Dollywood in Tennessee.
