<\/p>\nBritney Spears says she is ‘working to feel more compassion’ towards sister Jamie Lynn after they feuded for years.<\/p>\n
The pop icon, 41, who will release explosive memoir The Woman In Me on October 24 – also claims in her tell-all tome that Jamie-Lynn, 32, told her to ‘stop fighting’ her controversial conservatorship which ran from 2008-2021.<\/p>\n
In excerpts obtained by People, Spears writes: ‘She will always be my sister, and I love her and her beautiful family. I\u2019m working to feel more compassion than anger toward her, and everyone who I feel has wronged me. It\u2019s not that easy.’<\/p>\n
The star said her younger sister ‘ruled the roost’ at their home in\u00a0Kentwood, Louisiana, leaving Britney feeling like a ‘ghost child’ to her parents Jamie and Lynne.<\/p>\n
She writes: ‘I can remember walking into the room and feeling like no one even saw me. Jamie Lynn only saw the TV. My mother, who at one time had been the person I was closest to in the world, was on another planet… I\u2019d listen to her spew these hateful words, and I\u2019d turn to my mother and say, “Are you going to let this little witch talk to you like that?” I mean, she was bad.’<\/p>\n
