During Monday morning’s episode of "The View," Walters told the audience that "There is a man named Sam Lutfi, who is the manager and very good friend of Britney. He has been staying with her constantly. He got in touch with us, I can't vouch for this. He seemed to be very knowledgeable and he certainly was very nice. He said Britney was suffering from what he describes as mental issues which are treatable. He said that she has been to a psychiatrist and I assume she is starting some kind of treatment. She has been having mood swings. She has been having some kind of trouble sleeping."

Moreover, the pop star is "in touch with her mother, because we had heard she wasn't, and her mother has been very supportive of whatever it is Britney is going to do," the 78-year-old co-host said. In fact, Lynne was spotted by various photo agencies, arriving into LAX airport on Sunday, probably to visit her daughter.

Also showing her support publicly, is Britney’s "cousin" and former assistant, Alli Sims, who told People at Saturday’s Hugo Boss/Glamour Studio Glam suite, that Britney will be alright.

"She does seem happy," Sims said of the 26-year-old singer. "I’m sure obviously she’s going through some things, and a lot, right now. That definitely gets to you. I’m not saying that everything is fine. Obviously, she’s worried about stuff, like we all are. She’s hanging in there. I’m not worried. She’ll get back. She’ll be fine."

Sims says she and Spears are still really close and absolutely nothing is wrong with their relationship. She even claims she and Britney have never had so much as a tiny fight.
