Britney Spears has prepared the world ably for her upcoming Memoir The Woman in Me with some of the biggest news ever coupled to her storied career.

Spears has shared the events of her apparent abortion while dating Justin Timberlake, an event which caused a rift between the power-couple.

Entertainment reporter Peter Ford told Millsy and Karl on 6PR Breakfast it’s a very personal part of both of their lives, and it’s not clear if Timberlake signed off on the revelation.

“She stopped short of saying she was coerced or forced to do it, but if you red between the lines it’s pretty clear she didn’t want to,” Mr Ford said.
