Per the title, Britney revealed that she had an abortion while in a relationship with Timberlake because he “didn’t want to be a father.” Yikes. I’m pro choice, but the phrasing isn’t a good look for him.


They were like 17 and 18 years old. Of course he didn't want to be a father.


+1 he made the rational choice that any reasonable 18yo would make. How many people would want their teen-years dirty laundry now aired for the world?


Rational to terminate a viable baby? They were healthy multi-millionaire ADULTS.


That would be born to a mom not equipped to raise children (look at how she's doing with the 2 she did give birth to) and to a dad who didn't want the kid. Sounds awesome.


Again, they were both multi-millionaire adults with more resources than anyone their age. Her own sister gave birth to a beautiful daughter when she was even younger. I guess her sister should have killed the baby too. The fact that her sister didn’t likely underscores the mistake Britney made and adds to her trauma.





So, what? Who cares what the sister did? Different people. Different decisions. And your use of "killed the baby" is inflammatory and unnecessary. Shame on you.



Britney's career wouldn't have ended if she had a baby at 19 or 20. Reese Witherspoon had a few around that age and is still an A-list movie star.


Reese Witherspoon basically had a shotgun marriage to Ryan Phillipe, who wound up being a massive jackoff. She then remarried, had a third child with husband #2, and is now divorcing him.

Acting is a LITTLE different than being a pop star. Reese was also born rich.


You're really twisting yourself into a pretzel. A Justin and Britney baby would have been healthy and beautiful...and fine. There was no good reason to terminate it. It's sad. And it's understandable that such a life event would cause permanent trauma. Especially since she's probably pre-menopausal and knows she can't have enough baby.


she went on to have 2 children that she has little to no contact with.

look, she may have regret. it may have been traumatic for her fragile mental state. Most people terminate and don't really think much of it later.

A baby being raised by a mentally ill parent and another parent who didn't want said child? That does NOT sound like the recipe for healthy and fine.


Sweetie, you have issues. What motives you to type such a disgusting bald-faced lie? Especially in a thread where a celebrity literally just wrote a book detailing her abortion regret from over 20 years ago.


DP but that isn’t a lie. My mom had an abortion and I wouldn’t exist without it. Even if she thinks about the embryo now and then, she thinks and loves me a whole lot more. She feels pretty good that I was raised in middle class comfort and that she could finish her college degree and meet my dad and have us.

So if you want to tell me I’m less of a person than the embryo feel free.


Were you born within 9 months of the abortion?


One thing leads to another in life. My Dad would not have dated my mom had she a baby when they met. In fact, they wouldn’t have met because my mom would have not have still been a college dorm. From my Mom’s perspective 50 ish years later, she doesn’t think about the aborted baby much at all, but she does think about her 3 kids. I’m sorry that upsets you and glad you didn’t have say in it because I’m happy it happened that way.
I’m the other side of the story, the kid of a teenager who had an abortion and went on to live a good happy life. Having an abortion doesn’t have to be horrible.


You are clearly a compulsive liar. No mother told a daughter she was happy she aborted a baby 50 years ago. And millions of young mothers go to college and finish their degrees. And millions of men marry single mothers. Just as a child would not have destroyed Britney's career.


Last, you live in a weird anti-abortion bubble. Every close woman friend I have had in my adult life terminated a pregnancy at one point. I don't know a single woman who ever regretted ending a pregnancy. I regret the unplanned pregnancy, but I do not for a minute regret choosing not to have a child when I was 20.

Occasionally, I wonder how my life would be different if I had made a different decision. and that doesn't mean I would have had a baby...a different decision could have ended in miscarriage; who knows. But I think more about how my life would have been different if I had gone to a different college, if I had taken a different post-college job offer, and if I hadn't broken up with my HS sweetheart.

My son would not exist now if I had not ended that pregnancy 22 years before his birth. I'm very happy with my choice, and I don't know anyone who has had an abortion who doesn't think it was the right choice. Regret about the pregnancy, sure, for most. But regret about ending it? No.


I'm not anti-anything. You are the one calling 41-year-old mother of two Ms. Spears a liar or crazy for having a traumatic abortion regret. You are suggesting this reaction is uncommon. You are on here spreading nonsense about how all of your friends have had abortions and are happier for it. The fact is Britney was a healthy multi-millionaire and Justin was also a multi-millionaire. Aborting that baby was selfish, immature, senseless and Godless. She could have had the child, they both could have kept their bustling careers, she still could have had a couple kids with K-Fed, and Justin still could have married Biel. Maybe it was the daughter she never had; a daughter who would be in college right now. Meanwhile, she sees her sister's daughter growing into a beautiful young lady. I totally understand her pain. Try having empathy for her instead of your wicked crusade to rationalize killing babies.

I don’t know that anyone is lacking empathy for her. She absolutely might regret it and wish she hadn’t made that choice.

I still believe, from the outside looking in, it was the best choice given the circumstances. But that doesn’t mean she isn’t allowed to have regret/feelings/etc

I personally have zero regret, and as many have shared with you, that is not uncommon. Not everyone believes it is a sin or murder. I don’t personally believe in God (though I did learn theology in school and even attended CCD as a child).

Regretting an abortion is a minority view. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. Do we need to explain stats to you?

Lady, yih sound like a cartoon at this point. I have never called Spears a liar. I have no doubt that a tiny minority of women who end pregnancies end up regretting that decision; I just personally am but one of them and of every single close woman friend I have had for the last 35 years (I am now 52) I do not know anyone who regrets ending a pregnancy.

It does not surprise me that a woman who has serious mental health issues and whose life has been characterized by coercion, manipulation, and loss of control would identify a moment like ending an early pregnancy as a point of regret. With so much of her life that felt out of her control, if she felt in any way manipulated into that decision it would be even more emotionally resonant.

But my comment was not about Soears...it was about YOU calling PP a compulsive liar for saying there is no way a mother would tell a child that an abortion had been a good thing.

I certainly will tell my son someday that I ended a pregnancy, and I will tell him how positive and important a decision that was in the trajectory of my life and health. He already understands, at age 10, that bodily autonomy and reproductive freedom are incredibly important.

It is sad that you live in a tiny little judgmental bubble, calling others wicked. As a Christian, I wish you'd actually study the teachings of Jesus Christ for some guidance on how to love your neighbor. (Hint: he never, ever preached against abortion. He actually preached about sinners throwing stones at other sinners.)

A lot of people have had babies at nineteen.

It isn’t too young to be a parent.

They both were adults at the time.

Jamie Lynn had her first child at sixteen & she came out okay even though she is no longer w/her daughter’s Father.

Shaving her head wasn't from a mental break down. Ok, sure.


Pp here and this is what I’m talking about in terms of credibility. The whole Wade Robson thing is fishy too. She’s trying to say she just kissed him? Um no.


She's the furthest thing from a reliable narrator. This many years later and she still doesn't think she has ever had any mental health issues? Come on now.


Suppose she did the current popular thing wrote a revenge song about the abortion Justin wanted and not her. Suppose she expected him to feel guilt about it and publicly called him a jerk and wanted revenge. Would that have been more believable?



Did you even read the article? It would certainly be more believable than that she impulsively shaved her head and smashed at a car with an umbrella then locked herself in a bathroom with her two kids requiring police intervention and yet, was in a totally sound state of mind and has never experienced mentally illness. So...yeah?

Doesn’t matter if millions of people marry single mothers, it wouldn’t have been my dad my mom married and I wouldn’t exist.

So again you are wishing me, a life with 2 of my own kids out of existence by insisting my Mom made a bad choice. Please respect my life.

Her entire career at the time was being marketed as an unattainable virgin. Britney and Justin were a "wholesome" pop couple who were "waiting" for marriage. Had she gone through with the pregnancy, they would have gotten married. That would have been the only way to salvage their careers.

And let's not act like Jamie Lynn came out fine. She was fired from her show, and lived in obscurity until Dancing with the Stars called 18 years later. She may be happy with her decision, but it was a career ending one.

No she didn’t. She was at risk of losing her children to court ordered hair follicle drug testing and got rid of her hair which was the smartest approach given the circumstances

There’s nothing wrong with having regrets. What’s wrong is the way it’s being framed as Justin “forced” her to have an abortion.

Placing a world-famous multi-millionaire under conservatorship is not a trivial thing to pull off. I’m not saying it was right, but there must have some serious problems.

I am curious to see if that is actually the story in the book or if it is the interpretation that people decided to run with.

Not wanting a baby isn’t “forcing partner into an abortion”

Look, maybe he did-I wasn’t there. We also don’t have the full story or facts yet.

My interpretation is she had a choice and the final decision was ultimately hers. I think she made the right one given the circumstances we are aware of.

I am sorry that she regrets her decision. I have zero regrets from when I faced an unintended and unwanted pregnancy. I was lucky that my partner (who did become my husband) supported my choice. I know it is difficult when partners don’t see eye to eye. That said, a child is a huge responsibility and a lifelong commitment-if he wasn’t ready, it is ok and valid. She still could have decided to go forward.
