Lynne Spears: Britney was so scarred over break up with Justin Timberlake

Britney Spears’ mom Lynne believes her daughter’s break-up with Justin Timberlake is at the root of her recent troubles.

The pair split in 2002 after dating for 3 years, and Lynn believes the singer struggled to find someone to replace the 27-year-old SexyBack star.

‘I wish they would have parted differently, rather than to hurt each other and leave all those scars,’ she says.

‘Almost 2 years after she and Justin had broken up, Britney was still wounded. She started to act out of pain, in an effort to numb her disappointment and heartache.’

Lynne, 54, admits her relationship with her 26-year-old daughter has been difficult in the past..

‘Britney would lash out at me, accusing me of siding with Kevin Federline and letting him have the boys,’ she says in her new book Through The Storm – A Real Story Of Fame And Family In A Tabloid World.

‘In fact, she refused to speak to me, and our estrangement lasted an excruciating 7 months.’

Lynne Spears: It killed me to witness Britney's downfall

Britney Spears’ mom Lynne says she was devastated when she saw the star being taken to a psychiatric hospital on live TV.

The singer, 26, was filmed as she was carried out of her Hollywood home on a stretcher in January.

‘When I saw her in the ambulance, her beautiful brown eyes pained and haunted, something inside me broke,’ Lynne explains.

‘To see my child like this – at the lowest ebb of her life – almost killed me.

'I was overcome with a feeling of sadness and helplessness.'

Lynne, 54, also watched her daughter shave off her hair on TV last year.

'It was so shocking, so disturbing to see that girl with such despondency in her eyes,’ she says in new book Through The Storm – A Real Story Of Fame And Family In A Tabloid World.

'It broke my heart in a million pieces.’

Lynne Spears Unveils Parenting Book

Britney and Jamie Lynn Spears’ mom has some advice to give.

Lynne Spears’ long-awaited book about mothering her superstar spawn will be available in stores August 16.

The book, promises the cover, is “a real story of fame and family in a tabloid world.”

Through the Storm apparently aims to show the Spears’ life from a mother’s perspective, as opposed to the way the tabloids show their family.

“Lynne was just an ordinary Southern mom when the overnight success of her daughter Britney shoved the Spears family into the blinding limelight glare,” says a press release for the book.

The memoir was set to hit stores over Mother’s Day, but news of 17-year-old Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy put a hold on the release date.
