Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears met when they were just kids, but just a couple of years after hitting stardom the two entered into a relationship. The revelation of the Prince and Princess of Pop dating took each other took fans by surprise and they were soon declared the It couple back in 1999.
However, their fan-favorite relationship was short-lived and turbulent, as Spears’ recent tell-all memoir revealed. Despite making some of the wildest claims about their relationship, the Toxic hitmaker has now apologized for writing such things about the former NSYNC member and even praised his music amidst divorce rumors with his wife Jessica Biel.
Britney Spears Apologizes To Justin Timberlake
Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears were in a relationship from 1999 to 2002 and were one of the most popular celebrities back in the day. From attending each other’s events to matching outfits, they were certainly the iconic pair who everyone shipped with whole sincerity.
But just like all the other happy relationships in Hollywood, the seemingly happy couple led a pretty turbulent life behind the scenes. In her bombshell memoir, The Woman in Me, Spears went on to make several private and shocking revelations about their romance.
From falling pregnant and getting an abortion, to him cheating on her several times and then breaking up via a text as she was busy filming a music video, the memoir has been ground-shattering when it comes to Timberlake’s public image.
However, the singer seems to be regretting her words amidst the rumors floating around of Timberlake having marriage troubles after Spears’ memoir was published in October 2023. In a recent Instagram post (via Just Jared), the singer shared a clip of Timberlake from The Tonight Show and captioned it,
“I wanna apologize for some of the things I wrote about in my book. If I offended any of the people I genuinely care about I am deeply sorry… I also wanted to say I am in love with Justin Timberlake’s new song ‘Selfish’ 🌹 It is soo good and how come every time I see Justin and Jimmy together I laugh so hard ??? Ps ‘Sanctified’ is wow 🤩 too.”
While the fans are shocked over her sudden 180° turn, Timberlake is reportedly facing marriage troubles.
Justin Timberlake And Jessica Biel Heading For A Divorce?
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have been happily together for 16 years now, but if the rumors are true, their glamorous relationship too has reached an expiry date. Married for 10 years now with two sons, their relationship too had a few bumps along the way but they have managed to stay strong all this while.
However, the biggest bump on the road was reportedly Britney Spears’s memoir, which started a string of rumors of them breaking up. Despite the rumors in October 2023, the two attended the screening of Trolls: Band Together, and Biel even posted photos of them on her Instagram.
But despite them being spotted together several times, the rumors don’t seem to die. As per an insider, via Life & Style, even couples counseling cannot seem to fix their underlying issues. Reportedly in their last efforts to make it work, the couple’s recent appearances seem to be stating otherwise.
Biel not only posted a TikTok of her listening to her husband’s latest single Selfish, but she also reportedly changed her style a bit to support him on his latest appearance as a musical guest on Saturday Night Live following his upcoming solo album release (via PageSix). Thus, them heading for a divorce only seems to be a hoax, but since Hollywood is infamous for being deceptive, we will just have to wait and see.
