Britney Spears, who often shares her thoughts on social media, wrote a note on Instagram during Christmas criticizing her family.
“Merry belated Christmas to my beautiful family who have never disrespected me, harmed me, ever done anything completely unacceptable or caused unbelievable trauma, the kind you can’t fix,” she captioned a photo of a Christmas tree.
“To my sweet, sweet, innocent family… I’m so sorry I was busy this Christmas, but I’ll definitely show up and surprise you guys soon… I can’t wait… hello, beautiful Ivy… I just want to hold you, my love… Godspeed, friends,” she concluded.
However, this did not go down well with her family, reports say. Although she didn’t name a specific person, an insider says Daily Mail, “The blow landed. It was painful and came out of nowhere. It was like a punch in the stomach. And also during the holiday.”
The Grammy winner’s mother, Lynne Spears, and sister Jamie Lynn, are the most injured.” The source explains that the post comes as a shock to them as they believe their relationship is on the mend.
“They thought she was doing better, that maybe there was some reconciliation going on. So to get into trouble like that was a surprise, especially when they didn’t feel like anything bad had happened.”
Another insider tells the newspaper that Britney should have expressed her criticism privately instead of publicly. “It just hurts. But it is what it is. I’m sorry she feels that way, but she has everyone’s number and can pick up the phone and talk to everyone in the family, instead of posting something like that for the public to see and have an opinion about.”
“She reaches out when she wants to, and she keeps her distance when she wants to. And she often chooses to make her point publicly rather than privately,” the source concludes.
