Britney Spears Drops Shocking Bombshell, Claims She Aborted Justin Timberlake’s Baby
Britney Spears allegedly aborted her child because her ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake “wasn’t ready” to be a father.
The ‘Toxic’ singer dated the NSYNC member for three years, ending in 2002, and she has admitted that she became pregnant when they were together. Despite not viewing the “surprise” as a “tragedy,” she claimed the ‘SexyBack’ hitmaker “definitely wasn’t happy,” and insisted they were “too young” to become parents.
According to a People magazine excerpt from Spears’ upcoming memoir “The Woman in Me,” “It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn’t a tragedy. I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated.
“But Justin definitely wasn’t happy about the pregnancy. He said we weren’t ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young.”
The 41-year-old actress, who later gave birth to boys Sean Preston, 18, and Jayden, 17, with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, called having an abortion “agonizing” and said that if it had been up to her, she would have carried the pregnancy to term.
She wrote: “If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it. And yet Justin was so sure that he didn’t want to be a father.
“To this day, it’s one of the most agonizing things I have ever experienced in my life.”
The ‘Gimme More’ hitmaker first met Timberlake when they worked together on ‘The All-New Mickey Mouse Club’, which she was cast on when she was just 11 years old, and she recalled how she and the ‘Can’t Stop The Feeling’ singer first locked lips during a sleepover.
She wrote: “Being in the show was boot camp for the entertainment industry: extensive dance rehearsals, singing lessons, acting classes, time in the recording studio, and school in between.
“The Mouseketeers quickly split into our own cliques, divided by the dressing rooms that we shared: Christina Aguilera and I were the younger kids, and we shared a dressing room.
“We looked up to the older kids — Keri Russell, Ryan Gosling, and Tony Lucca, who I thought was so handsome. And I quickly connected with a boy named Justin Timberlake.
“It was honestly a kid’s dream — unbelievably fun, particularly for a kid like me. But it was also exceptionally hard work: we would run choreography thirty times a day, trying to get every step perfect.
“[Once] at a sleepover, we played Truth or Dare, and someone dared Justin to kiss me. A Janet Jackson song was playing in the background as he leaned in and kissed me.”
A Timberlake spokesperson has not yet responded. Timberlake and wife Jessica Biel have two sons, Silas, 8, and Phinneas, 3.
