Jamie Lynn Spears and Britney Spears have publicly feuded for years. While a lot of their drama has played out on social media, Britney most recently aired out their dirty laundry in her new memoir, The Woman in Me. Ever since the book dropped on Oct. 24, Jamie Lynn has kept quiet about her relationship with her sister. However, that all changed during the latest episode of I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here when contestant Frankie Dettori asked the Zoey 101 star where she stands with Britney today.
Jamie Lynn Spears and Britney Spears’ Current Relationship
Dettori referenced the sisters’ drama by asking Jamie Lynn Spears whether it was “true” that she and Britney don’t get along. The Sweet Magnolias actress didn’t directly answer Dettori’s question, however. It’s possible Jamie Lynn played it coy in order to avoid adding fuel to the fire. So, instead of confirming or denying that she and Britney are on good terms, Jamie Lynn simply said:
I love my sister.

While she may not have said much about their current relationship, Jamie Lynn did open up about their past. TV presenter Fred Sirieix asked the Nickelodeon alum what it was like growing up alongside the “Toxic” singer. Jamie Lynn said she has always admired Britney. She even admitted feeling very protective of her older sister ever since she was a kid.
When it came to my sister, even if I felt anything, if anyone said anything I was ready to go. I was like, ‘Don’t talk about my sister, she’s the best.’

Jamie Lynn Spears’ comments come weeks after Britney dropped her tell-all memoir, The Woman in Me, on Oct. 24. In the book, the singer accused Jamie Lynn of not having her back during her 13-year conservatorship. In fact, Britney said that her sister once told her to “stop fighting it.” She also accused Jamie Lynn of siding with their father, Jamie Spears, who was in charge of Britney’s conservatorship from 2008 to 2021.
Despite everything that happened, Britney made it clear in her memoir that Jamie Lynn will “always” be her sister. She said she “loves” Jamie Lynn and “her beautiful family” and wishes them nothing but “the absolute best.”
I’m working to feel more compassion than anger toward her, and everyone who I feel has wronged me. It’s not easy.
