Britney Spears is speaking out about Jamie Lynn’s memoir following an interview Wednesday on Good Morning America. The “Toxic” singer didn’t like her little sister’s words and has given her opinion about it on social media, even going as far as unfollowing Jamie Lynn. “She never had to work for anything” Britney has said harshly about her sister.
Recently, Britney Spears broke free from her father’s guardianship and broke her silence by lashing out at him, criticizing and denouncing him for 13 years of severe surveillance. However, the pop star has also spoken out about her mother and sister Jamie-Lynn Spears for doing nothing all this time. The release of Jamie-Lynn’s memoir has driven a bigger wedge between her and Britney.
Jamie-Lynn Spears went on Good Morning America to promote her memoir, Things I Should Have Said. In it she recounts events and breaks her 13-year silence about her sister’s guardianship. The actress who made her name on Zoey 101 told the show that her “love is still there 100 percent. I love my sister. I’ve loved her and supported her, doing the right thing by her. She knows that, so I don’t know why we’re in this situation right now.”
However, the pop star has not been convinced by this explanation and accuses her sister of “doing nothing” during these 13 years. Jamie-Lynn doesn’t understand her sister’s stance and on Good Morning America explained that “When it started, I was 17 and about to have a baby, so I didn’t understand what was going on. I wasn’t even focused on it. I was thinking about the fact that I was going to be a mother at 17.”
Jamie-Lynn said, “It was very important for me to separate myself from my family to focus on the family I created.” She also said, “I fought very hard and worked very hard to establish myself and build the life I have today,” to which her sister responded that “She never had to work for anything.” Britney says she has felt alone during this time and is not convinced by her little sister’s justifications, let alone her book.
The relationship between them has been in one of the worst phases for some time now. To stop arguing through the media Jamie-Lynn “May the peace of the Lord be with you, and your spirit” on Instagram which she subsequently deleted. And her sister, the pop star replied with a “May the Lord wrap your mean ass up in joy today”, in a video dancing, but that she also deleted. The relationship is not going well but it also seems that they regret what they say.
