Britney Spears is reuniting with business manager Larry Rudolph, E! News reports.

Spears and Rudolph worked together for many years off-and-on, and he is credited with shaping her highly successful early career. They most recently parted ways last year after Spears blamed him, in part, for encouraging her to enter Promises rehab center in Malibu.

Of reports that they have decided to pair up again, a source tells E!: "It's true. They are working together."

At the time when Spears parted ways with Rudolph last year, her father, Jamie, sent an email to the New York Post supporting Rudolph despite his daughter's decision to sever their relationship.

"When Larry Rudolph talked Britney into going into rehab, he was doing what her mother, father and team of professionals with over 100 years of experience knew needed to be done," Jamie wrote. "She was out of control. Larry was the one chosen by the team to roll up his sleeves and deliver the message, to help save her life."

Jamie Spears is currently a co-conservator over his daughter's affairs.
