Britney Spears admits to being unfaithful during her time with Justin Timberlake, according to an exclusive source. The 41-year-old singer opens up about a transgression with dancer and choreographer Wade Robson in her upcoming memoir, The Woman in Me, scheduled to be released on Tuesday, October 24th.
In the book, the insider reveals that Spears reminisces about dancing and kissing with Robson, 41, at a bar in Spain while she was in a relationship with Timberlake, 42. The "Toxic" singer then discloses that she and Timberlake reached an agreement to move past the betrayal, considering the years she remained faithful and solely focused on him.
Rumors of Spears being unfaithful to Timberlake have circulated ever since the release of the music video for his song "Cry Me a River" in 2003, which came out a year after their separation.
The video, featuring a model resembling Spears, appeared to imply that the musician had cheated. Spears later disclosed to Rolling Stone that Timberlake had forewarned her about the release of a "controversial" video.
"He achieved his goal. Personally, I perceive it as a desperate maneuver," she stated to the publication. "However, it served as an effective marketing strategy for the album. He's cunning."
In addition to confessing her own betrayal in The Woman in Me, Spears also alleged in the memoir that Timberlake had been unfaithful to her with another renowned woman. According to TMZ, Spears refrained from disclosing the person's identity due to her current family situation.
Gallery Books/MegaAccording to People, in Spears' new tell-all, she not only accuses Timberlake of infidelity but also discloses that she became pregnant while they were dating in the early 2000s. In an excerpt from the book, she wrote, "Justin was clearly unhappy about the pregnancy. He expressed that we weren't prepared to raise a child at such a young age."
Spears asserted that she opted for an abortion due to Timberlake's lack of readiness for parenthood.
"People may despise me for this, but I consented to not have the child," she penned. "I'm uncertain if it was the correct choice. If it had solely been my decision, I would never have gone through with it. However, Justin was resolute in his desire to not become a father."
Before the memoir is published, an insider revealed to Us earlier this month that Justin will not express satisfaction with it. This suggests that Britney strongly criticizes him in the book.
Contrarily, another source informed Us that Britney has no intention of publicly humiliating anyone. They further explained that she merely shared her personal perspective and presented the facts as she sees them.
Spears and Timberlake were in a relationship from 1999 to 2002. They first met in the early ‘90s during the filming of The Mickey Mouse Club. Timberlake married Jessica Biel in 2012 and they have two sons together, Silas (8) and Phineas (3).
On the other hand, Spears has two sons, Sean (18) and Jayden (17), from her previous marriage to Kevin Federline. Recently, she ended her marriage of 14 months with Sam Asghari, who filed for divorce from Spears in August.
