Britney Spears’ memoir is finally available to the public after pre-release excerpts sent shockwaves through the entertainment world.
Before its release on October 24, Spears’ autobiography, titled “The Woman in Me,” appeared to accidentally go on sale in Mexico.
It is published by Simon and Schuster in the UK.
Among the biggest headlines from the book so far is the claim that Spears had an abortion while dating Justin Timberlake.
She also detailed the fallout from their breakup, from the fallout from Timberlake’s hit song “Cry Me a River” to her affair with Irish actor Colin Farrell.
One topic that doesn’t appear in “The Woman in Me,” however, is Spears’ recent divorce from ex-husband Sam Asghari after 14 months of marriage.
Spears reportedly gave her final approval to Simon and Schuster just weeks before announcing that Asghari had filed for divorce, meaning she “has no right to request any further changes.”

Hilary Liftin (Tatum O’Neal) or Ariel Levy (Demi Moore)? Instead, Spears is said to have chosen Sam Lansky: journalist; novelist; (as far as we know) first-time ghostwriter.
