Britney Spears claims Justin Timberlake cheated on her with another celebrity, despite popular belief.
For years, people speculated that the ‘Gimme More’ singer cheated on her former boyfriend, who she dated between 1999 and 2002 - which only increased following the release of Justin’s massive hit song ‘Cry Me a River’ in 2002.
As it turns out, pop superstar Britney claims that she was actually the person who was cheated on as part of several bombshell revelations in her new memoir The Woman in Me.

According to TMZ’s sources, Britney doesn’t name the person with whom the NSYNC singer allegedly cheated on her with because she now has a family of her own and Britney doesn’t want to embarrass her. However, this probably won’t stop Britney’s passionate fanbase, who started the #FreeBritney movement which ultimately led to the end of her 13-year conservatorship, from speculating and figuring it out for themselves.
Britney followed-up Justin’s hit with her own heart-wrenching ballad, ‘Everytime’, the following year.
Britney's memoir is a few days’ away from hitting shelves, but it has already caused a frenzy with the singer claiming she became pregnant during her relationship with Justin and ultimately decided to have an abortion.
In her memoir, Britney explained she had plans of starting a family with Justin, but that he insisted they were both too young to become parents at the time.
“It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn't a tragedy," Britney said. This excerpt was also shared with People.
"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 star has also written about the infamous head shaving incident in her upcoming memoir.
In an excerpt published in People, Britney said: “I'd been eyeballed so much growing up.
"I'd been looked up and down, had people telling me what they thought of my body, since I was a teenager.
"Shaving my head and acting out were my ways of pushing back."
In September 2021, after Britney provided a shocking and heartbreaking testimony in court weeks before, Jamie Spears filed to end the conservatorship after 13 years.
Tyla has contacted representatives for Justin Timberlake for comment.
The Woman in Me will be released 24 October 2023.
