But, after being blindsided by the split from her husband Sam Asghari last week, she is now set to reveal all about her marriage breakdown.
She is also set to release new music, which pals say is taking her mind off the split.

A source said: “To have such a major moment in her life omitted from the book would be senseless. Her fans want to know what was behind the split.
“Britney is keen to ensure she takes control of the narrative, and there is no better way than to say what happened in her own words in her book.”
After being released from the conservatorship that had ruled her life for 13 years in 2021, Spears finally found the freedom to tell her own story in what insiders say is a “blockbuster memoir”.
So explosive is the manuscript, the troubled pop superstar’s hopes of telling her truth lied not with her but with her lawyers.
But last week, following news of husband Asghari filing for divorce, publishers Simon & Schuster were busily trying to arrange for her to cover the split before the book goes to press.

The split – 14 months after they married – came amid claims of Spears’s infidelity, a reported series of explosive rows and her worrying behaviour online.
Asghari filed for a divorce citing “irreconcilable differences”.
The Iranian-American actor listed July 28 as the date of separation.
Asghari’s petition asks that Spears pay for his attorney’s fees, but any hopes he had of speaking out are ended by a “watertight” non-disclosure agreement he is said to have signed before tying the knot.
Spears has hired celebrity divorce attorney Laura Wasser – who boasts A-list clients such as Kim Kardashian, Kevin Costner and Johnny Depp.

Despite the heartache, Spears is said to be “in great spirits despite everything going on” working on a number of projects.
The ‘Toxic’ singer is reported to have “an upcoming writers’ camp and is getting songs from some big artists”.
“Ideally, she would love to do a new record soon, and maybe a powerful song for the book’s release,” said a source.
A manager for Asghari has declined to comment.
A representative for Spears has not responded to requests for comment.
