Why Jamie Lynn Spears Is Staying Out of Britney Spears Case
A quiet source of support. Jamie Lynn Spears is on board with Britney Spearsâ attempt to end her 13-year conservatorship, but she prefers to offer her encouragement in private.
âJamie Lynn is 100 percent for #FreeBritney,â a source tells Us Weekly exclusively of the Zoey 101 alum, 30. âShe and Britney have always had this special bond as sisters. Jamie supports Britney and has been there for her, listening to Britneyâs speeches, praying for her and sharing encouraging messages with her.â

Since the âLuckyâ singer, 39, gave her explosive testimony in June, some fans have wondered why her younger sister hasnât spoken out more about the conservatorship. According to the insider, however, the Sweet Magnolias star has her reasons for staying quiet.
âWe donât see or hear about every little thing she does, but she is there for Britney as her sister, best friend and support system,â the source explains. âJamie doesnât want to be involved in Britneyâs conservatorship battle since she feels thatâs between Britney and her father, [Jamie Spears], and feels like Britney is strong enough to win this fight.â
After the June 23 court hearing in which Britney accused her conservators of preventing her from getting married and having a baby, among other things, Jamie Lynn waited five days to publicly react to her sisterâs claims.
âI think itâs extremely clear that since the day I was born Iâve only loved and adored and supported my sister,â the former Nickelodeon star said in a series of Instagram Story videos. âI mean, this is my freaking big sister before any of this bullsâ"t. I donât care if she wants to run away to the rainforest and have a zillion babies in the middle of nowhere, or if she wants to come back and dominate the world the way she has so many times before. I have nothing to gain or lose either way. This situation does not affect me because I am only her sister who is only concerned about her happiness.â
The âSleepoverâ songstress also wants to remain a supportive aunt to Britneyâs sons Sean Preston, 15, and Jayden, 14, while protecting her own children, Maddie, 13, and Ivey, 3, from the renewed attention on the Spears family.
âJamie looks up to Britney as her big sister and Jamieâs kids adore her as their aunt,â the insider explains. âSheâs always been protective of her family since they are her priority. She tries her best at living a normal life and raising her kids out of the spotlight.â
