Britney Spears to her mother: “You abused me”

Britney Spears posts an absolutely vitriolic response to her mother.

In an acrimonious exchange between Britney Spears and her mother, Lynne, the pop superstar decides enough is enough and shares a page-long response on her Instagram account.

Among other things, Britney Spears states that her mother had not responded to one of her text messages as she spoke out about her concerns about the increase in medication she was getting since 2019.

Britney strongly accuses her family of abandoning her and not responding to numerous texts, something her mother strongly defends, hence the release of (very slim) evidence that she had responded to her daughter at least once…

Britney was quick to share her retort.

“Yo ma did you also let people know that’s one of the only times you text me back ??? Did you also tell people that you hide the coffee in the morning and there are only pictures of Maddie and Jamie Lynn in the kitchen?”

Britney added a layer by pointing out that her mother was a joke, that she abused her during her greatest period of pain, and that she claims to be a responsible and perfect mother when she is not.

“You released a book and showed my heartbreak when Kevin took my kids… you abused me…,” the singer said.

Meanwhile, a legal war is raging as a trial looms that could shed light on what really happened during Spears’ legal guardianship, led by her father, Jamie, from 2008 to 2021.

Alicia Vikander opens up about her painful miscarriage

One of the characters recently played by the actress has lived the same experience …

Swedish actress Alicia Vikander recently opened up about the painful miscarriage she experienced with her partner, and her testimony is worth sharing. While discussions surrounding miscarriage are still taboo in the parenting community, more and more stars and celebrities of all kinds are lifting the veil on their own experience with this difficult reality of life. These testimonies are always very appreciated, as they contribute to normalize what is experienced by about one couple out of 5.

It was during an interview with the Sunday Times that the actress spoke about her miscarriage.

Today, Alicia Vikander is the mother of a child with her partner Michael Fassbender, and she told us that the road to parenthood was full of obstacles. In addition to experiencing a miscarriage, the actress had a lot of difficulty getting pregnant.

I tried for a long time to get pregnant. I had a hard time during the lockdown. For a while, I thought I would never be able to have a child,” she told the Sunday Times.

Recently, Alicia Vikander revisited the emotions she felt at that moment in her life, as she played a character experiencing a miscarriage in the miniseries Irma Vep. Director Olivier Assayas even confessed to having thought of the role for her. In the series, Alicia Vikander’s character has to quickly get back on stage after her painful experience.

Unfortunately, society still treats miscarriage as a simple medical blemish that can be treated quite well without taking into consideration the emotional and psychological damage it causes. Better therapeutic follow-up and greater resources should be offered to people experiencing a miscarriage.

In any case, we wish peace and love to Alicia Vikander and to all the people who have gone through a similar ordeal.
