Britney Spears has returned to social media with her first post in three weeks following her arrest.

On 4 March, the 44-year-old was arrested and booked for suspicion of driving under the influence after officers received reports of her vehicle “erratic[ly] braking, swerving and driving with no taillight”.

In an Instagram story shared on Friday (27 March), the singer posed in front of a mirror with her 19-year-old son Jayden.

"Thank you guys for all your support… Spending time with family and friends is such a blessing !!” she wrote in her caption. "Stay kind !!!"
