Britney Spears' reunion with Mum

Britney Spears Rex Features

Britney Spears has finally done what she should have done months ago – called on her mum for some support.

Lynne Spears arrived in LA from Louisiana on Monday and accompanied Britney and her pal, Sam Lufti, to a Mercedes Benz dealership on Tuesday morning, but reports suggest that they were arguing incessantly.

In the evening, Britney left the house to meet Adnan Ghalib, much to Lynne’s chagrin.

A source said: ‘Lynne, at one point said, “I just want to give her a hug. I'm very worried.” Lynne was so nervous and worried, she just kept asking how they could get her daughter back home.’

When the young star did return home, she ‘had a family bonding seesion’ with Lynne, Ali Simms and Sam Lufti, but it all went wrong when she had a blazing row with Sam.

The star was pictured sobbing her eyes out outside the front of her home last night.

Good job she’s got mum on hand to look out after her.

Meanwhile, Kylie has revealed her thoughts on the troubled star’s plight. She told The Sun: ‘I wish someone would write a manual about fame because it’s not easy. I’m always loath to say that because there are a lot more difficulties out there that people deal with every day - but when fame is handed to you, it is unique.

‘It’s not to the same extreme, but I can remember having a mini-meltdown myself - and unless you’ve got good people around to support you, you’ve got a problem.

She added: ‘Who knows what is going on in her life? Britney isn’t that young any more. I think she will still come back but it’s like she’s taken an extended holiday.

‘Whatever help she needs, she should reach out and get it. ‘

i say a better role model would be Simon Cowell or Madonna, definately not her mum who doesnt have a clue. Poor Britney, its only her personal life that seems a bit of a mess but her music is riding high in the charts. If she wasnt in the public eye we would be none the wiser and i'm sure everyone has as many ups and downs in their private life as her. I salute her!!!
