Britney Spears' Ex Donald Jones Slams Justin Timberlake Over Abortion Revelation in Spears' Memoir

Justin Timberlake faces backlash following Spears' memoir revelations, while high school beau Jones shows support, suggesting Spears return to her normal Mississippi lifestyle.

• Britney Spears' ex-boyfriend, Donald 'Reg' Jones, strongly criticizes Justin Timberlake following revelation in Spears' memoir, 'The Woman in Me', stating Timberlake asked her to have an abortion during their relationship in the early 2000s.
• In the memoir, Spears reveals she would have kept Timberlake's baby and that the abortion performed at home was 'excruciating'. She highlights the regret she felt in going through with the procedure, underpinning that Timberlake did not want to be a father.
• Jones, who dated Spears between 1996 and 1998, suggests Spears should return to a more 'normal' lifestyle in Mississippi, away from the influences of Hollywood, which he argues led Spears down a difficult path.
• Jones also critiques Lynne Spears, Britney's mother, claiming she controlled every aspect of Britney's life, even their relationship as teenagers. He still carries affection for Spears and sees a future with her away from the spotlight.
• Justin Timberlake faces severe backlash following these revelations, causing him to turn off comments on his Instagram. Meanwhile, Timberlake's former *NSYNC bandmate Lance Bass urges people to show forgiveness in the midst of the controversy.
