“It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that we have lost our miracle baby early in the pregnancy,” the duo wrote. “Perhaps we should have waited to announce until we were further along however we were overly excited to share the good news. Our strength is our love and devotion to each other. We will continue to try to expand our beautiful family. We are grateful to you for your support. We kindly ask for privacy during this difficult moment.”
Spears, who has sons Jayden (15) and Sean Preston (16 (16) with ex-husband Kevin Federline, has been vocal about her desire to have another kid, telling the judge in June 2021 that she wants to “get married and have a baby,” but her conservatorship was preventing her from doing so.
“I was told right now in the conservatorship, I’m not able to get married or have a baby,” the “Toxic” singer claimed at the time. “I have an IUD inside of myself right now so I don’t get pregnant. I wanted to take out the IUD to try to have another baby. But this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out because they don’t want me to have children — any more children.”
In September 2021, Asghari proposed for Spears. Two months later, it was announced that her long-term conservatorship had been officially ended. She will now release a book about the long legal battle she had and her turbulent relationship with her family.
“Britney will hold nothing back in the memoir,” a source told Us earlier this month. “Britney feels extremely betrayed by [her sister]Jamie Lynn, as she publicly stated. She will lay out that without her, Jamie Lynn would have no career.”
