Mum’s the word for Britney’s teenage sister

LYNNE SPEARS’ book about parenting has been delayed indefinitely, her publisher said yesterday.

Lindsey Nobles, a spokeswoman for Christian book publisher Thomas Nelson Inc, said yesterday the memoir by the mother of Britney Spears was put on hold last week. She declined to say whether the delay was connected to the revelation that Ms Spears’ 16-year-old daughter, Jamie Lynn, is pregnant.

“I can tell you that we are standing behind Lynne and supporting her decision to be with her family at this time,” said Ms Nobles.
