The news comes amid rumors of a complicated relationship between the two sisters that came to light in the final months of Britney’s legal battle to get out of her conservatorship, whichended in November.
In July, the 40-year-old singer wrote on Instagram that her conservatorship had “killed her dreams” and called out her sister specifically. “I don’t like that my sister showed up at an awards show and performed MY SONGS to remixes !!!!! My so-called support system hurt me deeply !!!!,” Britney explained.

“May the peace of the Lord be with you, and your spirit✌🏻❤️,” Jamie Lynn wrote on Instagram. She later deleted the words, leaving only the emojis, after Britney appeared to mock the initial caption in a subsequent post. “May the Lord wrap your mean ass up in joy today,” the singer wrote ona video of herself dancing. Britney later deleted the line.
Just one month before, however, Jamie Lynnappeared to offer her sister supportafter an emotional speech during her court hearing.
“Since the day I was born, I’ve only loved adored and supported my sister. I mean this is my freaking big sister, before any of this bulls—. I don’t care if she wants to run away to a rainforest and have zillion babies in the middle of nowhere,” she said in the video on her Instagram story at the time. “This situation does not affect me either way, because I’m only her sister who’s only concerned about her happiness.”
Last week, Britney took a deep dive into some sensitive subjects involving her family, and how the power of prayer and reflecting on her career accomplishments are helping propel her forward.
“I had an experience three years ago where I stopped believing in God,” Britney wrote. “From every angle I was being hurt for no reason and my family was hurting me. I went into a state of shock and the way I coped was being [in] fake denial. It was too much to really face.”
“Honestly my family embarrassed me and hurt me deeply,” she wrote, adding that “tooting my own horn and seeing my past accomplishments reflecting back at me actually helped” in overcoming her insecurities — appearing to reference how shelisted her achievementsthe week before in a separate Instagram post.
