Britney Spears' conservator says she has no was asked to continue to serve as a conservator – and claims the pop star asked her to remain in her role.

"Ms. Spears as recently as yesterday has asked Ms. Montgomery to continue to serve. Ms. Montgomery will continue to serve as a conservator for as long as Ms. Spears and the Court desire her to do so," Wright said in a statement through her lawyer to PEOPLE.

The statement comes days after the pop star's longtime manager and an independent financial firm stepped down from their roles. Spears gave bombshell testimony during a hearing on the conservatorship last month, asking a judge to free her from the legal process that controls her finances and professional decisions.
