He wrote: ‘This was taken on the 2nd shoot day for her Overprotected (Darkchild Remix) video, he wrote. It was a (planned) 24 hr shoot day and we had one crew clock out after 12 hrs & a new one clock in.

‘At some point during the 2nd shift Brit disappeared and I went to her trailer to fetch her…only to discover her BF Justin had just broken up with her via text message. (Let me recommend to any who reads this: don’t break up via text!)

‘We sat on the floor of her trailer for a minute, talked it out, and then rallied.’ He teased that it was ‘just one of the stories from the shoot…’.

Chris recently spoke to Page Six about the post, offering more details about the message and how Britney responded.

He told the publication that when he walked into her trailer, she showed her the phone, and said: ‘I can’t believe it. Look at it. This happened.’

According to Chris, the message simply read: ‘It’s over’.

Chris revealed how he changed Britney’s mind about stopping work for the day, explaining: ‘If you don’t have it in you, I totally understand…

‘But if you want to go out there and finish this last set-up in the rain, you can show him that he just made the biggest f***ing mistake of his life.’

Extracts from Britney Spears’ upcoming leaked memoir

Sheapparently responded: ‘You know that? That’s a good idea. I’m going to show him that he blew the best thing he ever had.’

Last week, Britney revealed she was devastated when Justin broke up with her through text message.

Britney is getting candid about her private life in the pages of her new memoir The Woman In Me, set for release on October 24.

The New York Times reported Britney wrote in her upcoming memoir, about the end of her relationship with Justin, saying: ‘I was comatose in Louisiana, and he was happily running around Hollywood.’

It came after Britney had finally admitted to cheating on the NSYNC member with the dancer Wade Robson following years of hearsay.

It was rumoured Britney and Justin split up in 2002 after three years of dating because she had a fling with Australian choreographer Wade.

Justin later released his famous single Cry Me A River which includes lyrics that allude to being cheated on.

Britney said of the choreographer on Good Morning America in 2000: ‘He’s just like a child prodigy, seriously… He’s a genius. He’s amazing.’

Yet their relationship was short lived and Britney and Wade had split within the year.

Wade largely stayed out of the limelight in the aftermath but resurfaced in the 2019 Leaving Neverland documentary in which he detailed the alleged abuse he suffered as a child by Michael Jackson.
