Britney Spears' sister Jamie Lynn claims she was "pressured to terminate a teen pregnancy " in her new and upcoming memoir.
The 30-year-old actress writes about the distressing time of her life when she announced the news to her family and was told to use pills and doctors in the process.
In Things I Should Have Said, which is set for release in January, Jamie describes the terrible interaction with her family.
According to Blast, she writes: "I came home from school, and Daddy and Bryan were there. A single day had elapsed before Daddy's anger brought out the sense of dread everyone felt about my situation. Once Momma and Daddy told my team, things spiraled out of control pretty quickly. When I walked in, Daddy, Bryan, and Momma were in the house and [a member of] my financial management team was on the phone. There was a whole lot of fighting going on between everyone involved.
"The entire Spears team was already caught up in my sister’s PR difficulties, and everyone around me just wanted to make this “issue” disappear. My family and management pulled me out of school until they could figure out what to do next. They took my smartphone away, fearing the news would get out, and insisted that no one share any information with anyone, especially the press. My daddy and I stopped speaking and the tension was terrible."
Jamie then added that at the time, many people told her: "It will kill your career."
"You are just too young. You don’t know what you’re doing," she continues.
The Zoey 101 star reportedly says in the book that someone told her: "There are pills you can take. We can help you take care of this problem. Think about what you’re doing to your family. Doesn’t the family have enough to deal with? I know a doctor. There are procedures that remedy mistakes like this. You don’t have to do this."
However she reveals a "member of her team" was supportive of her pregnancy, writing: "Y’all can’t force her to abort the baby."
Jamie concludes: "She was the first and only person on my team to show any support for my desire to keep my baby."
