Jamie Lynn Spears gets emotional over Britney in GMA teaser

Jamie-Lynn Spears has broken down into tears while discussing her ‘rift’ with sister Britney.

Ahead of the 30-year-old’s highly-anticipated TV interview with Good Morning America, eager fans have been treated to a sneak peek of the emotional chat as former child star Jamie-Lynn opens up about her ‘complicated’ relationship with Britney for the first time.

In a teaser clip of the long-awaited discussion, the former Zoey 101 star can be seen wiping the tears from her eyes with a tissue as she gets honest about her crumbling relationship with her sister.

Speaking to news reporter Juju Chang, Jamie-Lynn admits: “I love my sister. But things have gotten complicated.”

Chang also quizzed the mum-of-two about what caused the rift between her and Britney – who is currently lapping up her newfound freedom after her 13-year conservatorship finally came to an end last year.

Jamie-Lynn is also expected to open up about her brand-new memoir which is titled, Things I Should Have Said.

The star has initially titled her 240-page book I Must Confess: Family, Fame, and Figuring it Out referencing lyrics in Britney’s 1998 hit Baby One More Time.

But after an onslaught of backlash and abuse from Britney fans who accused Jamie-Lynn of trying to ‘make money’ off her sister’s success, she decided to change the name of her memoir.

The tell-all interview on Good Morning America comes after Toxic singer Britney has continued to publicly slam her family for not supporting her during her 13-year conservatorship – which finally ended on November 12.

Back in July, Britney publicly branded Jamie-Lynn as a ‘mean a**’ for not defending or supporting her during her conservatorship in a scathing Instagram post.

“Not only did my family not do a godda** thing, my dad Jamie was all for it. Anything that happened to me had to be approved by my dad,” Britney insisted.

“And my dad acted like he didn’t know that I was told I had to be tested over the Christmas holidays before they sent me away, when my kids went to home to Louisiana.

“He was the one who approved all of it. My whole family did nothing.”

Britney also hit out at her sister for covering a remix of her 2011 song Till the World Ends at the 2017 Radio Disney Music Awards.

At the time, she said: “I don’t like that my sister showed up at an awards show and performed my songs to remixes. My so-called support system hurt me deeply.”

The sisters have not been pictured together since 2018 amid their complicated rift.
