The Globe spoke with Justin Timberlake’s grandmother Sadie Bomar who insists while Justin and Britney Spears had a nasty blowup, they are still together. Bomar said, “Just before Justin went on tour, they had a big fight. Britney was unhappy about the amount of time they were going to be spending apart, but she has to understand that Justin has to work and so does she. Britney was upset, but it’s not that big a thing. They argue all the time about how much they are apart.”
As for whether their verbal battles mean the end of the line for the *NSYNC’er and Britney’s near three year relationship, Sadie said, “My husband and I argue, but that doesn’t mean we are splitting up – and neither are Justin and Britney.”
