Britney sends message to ex Justin Timberlake after 'world's biggest break up'

Pop princess Britney Spears has praised her ex-boyfriend Justin Timberlake as a “genius” before claiming that they had “one of the world’s biggest break ups”.

The Toxic songstress boasted that there were no hard feelings between the former flames as she danced to Justin’s hit single Filthy, before complimenting the singer turned actor.

Britney, 38, has recently been treating her Instagram followers to a string of videos and yesterday was no different.

Spears and Timberlake famously split up in 2002 after three years of dating, with the pair going on to release love songs which fans were convinced had been written about their relationship.

Acknowledging her former lover, Spears continued: “PS I know we had one of the world’s biggest breakups 20 years ago …… but hey the man is a genius!!!! Great song JT !!!! Pssss if you KNOW WHAT’S GOOD.”

The pair met as children on Mickey Mouse Club House, alongside Christina Aguilera and were deemed to be the “perfect” couple when their friendship blossomed into romance.

Her post soon sent fans wild, with one commenting: “Britney just referring to JT is everything I need.”

While a second went on to add: “I cannot handle this while quarantined.”
