"I love my sister. Guess what? I am her biggest fan. On Tuesday, January 18, the Zoey 101 alum stated that sisters are sisters or whatever. "I was born into this family. This was not the choice I made. It's almost like I was riding in the waves trying to survive. So that was how my life was: "Just survive this moment."
Britney and Jamie Lynn, 40, have been publically tense ever since Britney's explosive testimony in June 2021 about Britney's conservatorship. Britney has claimed that Britney tried to help her during her mental health struggles. However, Britney has also accused her siblings and parents of exploiting her. Britney had already reacted to the allegations in Jamie Lynn's memoir on Tuesday after her Nightline interview earlier this year.
Jamie Lynn released an Instagram statement saying, "I hate to burst the bubble of my sister, but my book not about her." It's not hard to remember that I was also born a Spears, and that some my experiences involve my sister. Since I was a teenager, I have worked hard and built my career despite being my little sister.
Britney ended Jamie Lynn's claim that she once locked her younger sibling, Jamie Lynn, in a room with knives. Britney wrote on January 15: "Jamie Lynn... congrats! This is a new level of low... Please stop telling these lies to Hollywood! Only now do I realize that such things are only possible because of a scumperson.
Britney was then urged by Jaime Lynn to call Britney so they could have a private discussion. However, Jamie Lynn's interview on "Call Her Daddy", which consists of two parts, could lead to more tension between the sisters. Jamie Lynn also spoke out about the alleged knife incident.
She said, "I think people should remember that I'm telling this tale about what I experienced, regardless of who pulled me into that room. You have to understand that it was an experience that was really frightening and made me feel really unsafe."
Britney has not yet responded to Jamie Lynn's podcast interview. Part 2 of Britney's interview will be available on Wednesday, January 19.
