Bitney Spears’ heartbreaking revelations in court, where she vowed to “sue her entire family”, have sent shockwaves through the Spears clan.
New Idea understands Britney is determined to distance herself from her father, mother and sister in the wake of her allegations, and is instead focusing her attention on undoing the stringent conservatorship.
Following outcry from unhappy fans, last week Britney’s sister, Jamie Lynn, made an emotional statement in which she publicly insisted she was supporting the singer.
“The only reason I haven’t [spoken out] before is because I felt like until my sister was able to speak for herself and say what she felt she needed to say … but now that she’s very clearly spoken and said what she needed to say, I feel like I can follow her lead,” she explained, before clarifying she is backing Britney’s fight against her legal constraints.
“We just want the best for her,” Jamie Lynn continued.
But friends tell New Idea Jamie Lynn’s public comments are a case of “too little too late”.
During her hearing, Britney, 39, told a Los Angeles Superior Court: “My whole family did nothing. I would honestly like to sue my family. I also would like to be able to share my story with the world and what they did.”
