Quarrel with Jamie Lynn Spears
During what Britney calls her forced trip for rehabilitation at the beginning of 2019“My father said that if I didn’t go, I would have to go to court and it would be awkward for me,” she writes. She recalls being prescribed lithium and being kept there “against my will” for months.
“I couldn’t go outside,” she continues. “I couldn't drive. I had to donate blood weekly. I couldn't take a bath alone. I couldn't close the door to my room.”
Britney wrote a message from the institution Jamie Lynn Spearspleading for help, she writes. Her younger sister's response, according to the book, was: “Stop fighting it. There's nothing you can do about it, so stop fighting it.”
Britney felt betrayed and wrote: “I didn’t understand how Jamie Lynn and our dad had such a good relationship. She knew that I was turning to her for help… I felt that she should have taken my side.”
In early 2022, the siblings publicly feuded over Jamie Lynn's memoir. Things I should have said.
Jamie Lynn “made salacious stories about me, many of which were hurtful and outrageous,” Britney reiterates in her book. But, she concludes, she loves her sister, adding: “I try to have more compassion than anger for her and for anyone who I feel has wronged me. It's not that simple.”
Eh! News has reached out to Jamie Lynn for comment. She said on E! Daily Pop in 2022, she and Britney “go back and forth, but at the end of the day, love and support will always be there.”
