Britney Spears and her mother
Lynne had just begun to mend their strained relationship, and yet another thing has happened that has put the two at odds -- and it's a tug-of-war over Britney's little sister
Jamie Lynn!
A recent getaway to Las Vegas had the Spears family trying to get back into the fun groove, when something went terribly wrong. A source tells Celebrity Babylon that Lynne, 52, wasn't pleased with the way Britney, 25, was trying to influence her younger sister Jamie Lynn, 16.
"At night, it was Lynne the babysitter, and Britney wanting to go out and party. She had Jamie Lynn trying on her clothes, strutting around, and then saying they were taking Jamie Lynn out with them, but Lynne put a stop to that," says the source. k
Lynn wasn't shy about telling Britney to leave Jamie Lynn out of her social plans either. According to the source, Lynne loves Britney, but she is disappointed with the way her impulsive behavior has turned into a side-show circus for the world's entertainment.
"She doesn't want Jamie Lynn getting into drugs, or going down the wrong path. Ever since Britney's meltdown and rehab, she has closely monitored the interaction between Britney and Jamie Lynn, and has told Jamie Lynn flat out that until Britney 'gets better,' she should 'stay away from her' unless she is there to supervise." It's one of the things that caused the rift between mother and daughter in the first place, "Britney doesn't like to be told what to do," says the source, "you want her to go left, she'll go right, she's just that way."
Meanwhile, Lynne has her own dreams for Jamie Lynn, and has asked the man who made Britney a star to help guide her little sister to superstardom, none other than
Larry Rudolph. "[Lynne] thinks lightening can strike twice, and this time she'll know the pitfalls better of how to handle what's going on in her daughter's life."
For now, Celebrity Babylon has learned that Jamie Lynn is to have no "alone" time with Britney until her life settles down.
