00:00Justin Timberlake is reportedly standing up for Britney Spears as she faces harsh public
00:05attacks from her ex-husband, Kevin Federline.
00:09The 44-year-old singer is said to find it despicable that Federline is making damaging
00:16accusations about Britney, including claims that she used drugs while pregnant and once
00:22stood over their sleeping children holding a knife.
00:25Federline, a former backup dancer and aspiring DJ, also alleged that Britney was unfaithful
00:32to him and that he caught her calling Justin the night before their 2004 wedding.
00:38Britney's representative dismissed the claims, saying Kevin and others were once again exploiting
00:44her now that his child support payments have ended.
00:47Britney herself posted on X, calling Kevin's comments extremely hurtful and exhausting.
00:54And accusing him of constant gaslighting.
00:58Britney and Justin's relationship dates back to their time together on the Mickey Mouse Club.
01:05They dated for three years before splitting in 2002.
01:09In her memoir, The Woman in Me, Britney revealed that she had an abortion at Justin's request
01:16during their relationship.
01:17Despite their complicated past, sources say there remains a degree of mutual respect between the two.
01:27Justin, now married to actress Jessica Beal, reportedly still cares about Britney's well-being.
01:34Justin thinks it's awful that Kevin is tearing her down with all these cruel stories,
01:40especially when she's already struggling, an insider shared.
01:44They're not close anymore, and he wasn't thrilled when she wrote about their breakup,
01:49but he still feels compassion for her.
01:54Seeing her hurt really affects him.
01:57Justin's always seen Kevin as a lazy opportunist,
02:01and this new book just confirms that.
02:03Justin, first time you don't know what to do,
02:04if you're thinking of being looked into,
02:05it can be done.
02:06If you're listening to the 97-6-3-D in the New York Times,
02:08you will see the Help of a Service League name.
