Britney's Dark Family Secret

A shocking secret has emerged from Britney Spears’ past.

Did her grandmother commit suicide during a battle with depression?

Yes, according to Us Weekly’s Jill Martin.

The magazine reports that Brit’s paternal grandmother killed herself in Kentwood, Louisiana in 1966 after losing one of her children.

“She was upset over the death of her three-day-old son,” says Martin. “She committed suicide at the little boy's grave.”

Meanwhile, just as the court reportedly told her not to drive the kids, was Britney behind the wheel and chauffeuring her boys?

Yes – but she took Sean Preston and Jayden James for a different kind of spin. X17online.com snapped the pop star taking the tots for a ride on a miniature John Deere this weekend.

I think that whatever her deal is with her life is her business. Who really cares? Why are we focusing on things like this in the media and not missing children or something greater? It makes no sense. Sounds like the media has their priorities mixed up as well.

This is so rediculous that people get their entertainment from this situation. Some nay not realize it , but this is people’s lives!! There are 2 little boys involved and no matter what anyone says that is always gonna be their mother regardless of what everyone else thinks. How can you put down a child’s parent and exspect them not to feel hurt by it, after all they’re still always a part of that parent, whether they like it or not. So, don’t you think that with all the critcism these boys may one day feel bad about themselves, being that they’re a part of her? Before her and Kevin split she was always with those babies and he was running around doing his thing. Maybe she really isn’t all that self absorbed. Maybe her self esteem is really stomped in the dirt as a result of it all. Most don’t want to see her get herself together, they’re too consumed with the amuzement of watching her life unravel. If there was a camera in my face from the time I woke up to the time I went to sleep, I’m sure I’d be annoyed to the point of giving them a meltdown too. I have accidentally gone down a one-way street and ran a red-light with my kids in the car. I have also let them drink coca-cola. Does this make me a bad mother?? And if I was folllowed constantly by people to the point of not being able to get out of a parking spot for hours I’m sure I’d have ran over feet too. Maybe they’ll give her some room to breathe if they know she’ll run over them. It is truely a sad situation and I think that there should be a law that papparazzi can only get within so many feet of a celebrity. If these things make her a bad mother, then it makes a huge number of other women bad mothers, also. Think about it!! I know it doesn’t seem like she is trying, but we don’t know what she’s really been going thru and still is going thru. So, I pray she pulls thru. I think it’d would be alot easier if everyone would just back off and let Britney try to find Britney again!!

I’m not sure why the media has the need to dig this up. This is a personal family tragedy. It’s obvious that Britney has issues clearly. This might be the root to her ya ya . I hope this girl gets the help she needs and removes herself from the spotlight but that help can only come when a person wants it

I feel that Britney can pull through and she will prevail, but how do you expect for her to act when she got cameras all in her face all damn day. This woman has no privacy at all, I feel that Britney should go to a place where she can get the hell away from Los Angeles, she need to come to the east coast like Atlanta or Miami, she’ll be fine yall just give her some more time.

I used to be a number one supporter of Britney. I felt like she wasn’t getting a break. The paparrazzi should back off, but she is so immature and self absorbed. She is not trying at all. Its like she could care less.

She is a waste and no we will not leave her alone until she gets her act together! She is a selfish and irresponsible mother.
