Jessica Biel Is Reportedly ‘Turning The Other Cheek’ To Justin Timberlake’s Scandals Because ‘He’s A Different Person Now’

Britney Spears brought all the negative press back to Justin Timberlake with the release of her bombshell memoir, The Woman In Me, and his wife, Jessica Biel, has reportedly “turned the other cheek” in regards to the scandal. The scandal in question? The “Toxic” singer revealed that when she and Justin Timberlake were in a committed relationship from 1999 to 2002, she fell pregnant with their child and at Justin’s insistence, got an abortion.

This isn’t the first scandal that Timberlake has been involved in: back in 2019, he issued a public apology to Jessica after photos of him holding hands with this Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright went viral. Keep reading for more information.

Britney Spears Reveals Justin Timberlake Made Her Get An Abortion

Britney Spears' memoir, The Woman In Me was released in October of this year, and was filled with bombshells pertaining to her relationship with Justin Timberlake, her conservatorship with her father, and much more. Many fans zeroed in on the information on Justin Timberlake, specifically when Spears revealed that he got her pregnant.

"It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn't a tragedy," the "...Baby One More Time" singer wrote. "But Justin definitely wasn't happy about the pregnancy. He said we weren't ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young."

"If it had been left up to me alone, I never would have done it," she continued. "And yet Justin was so sure that he didn't want to be a father."

Justin's Response To Bombshell Memoir

After the memoir came out and Justin started receiving a lot of negative backlash, sources close to him reported that "it's consuming his entire life and making his family miserable." According to this source, "his original plan was to ride this out," but that he was also fully prepared to take Britney to court and make her pay."

"He's furious and looking at legal options," the source continued.

Jessica Biel 'Turned The Other Cheek'

Though Justin may be furious, his wife, Jessica Biel, is ready to move past things. A source told Life & Style that, "Of course, Justin and Jessica were affected by the accusations. Justin makes no excuse for his past behavior, and he's sorry but he's a different person now, with a family, a career, responsibilities."

"Jessica knows that," the source continued.

Of course, the couple is no stranger to scandals. In 2019, Justin Timberlake was caught holding hands with his Palmer co-star Alisha Wainwright on a night out in New Orleans. The pair were seated together on a balcony of the Absinthe House on Bourbon Street, and Justin didn't appear to be wearing his wedding ring. A series of photos shows Wainwright's hand on the "Cry Me A River" singer's knee as well as holding each other's hands while resting them on his knee.

A few weeks later, Justin posted an apology on Instagram: "A few weeks ago I displayed a strong lapse in judgement — but let me be clear — nothing happened between me and my costar. I drank way to much that night and I regret my behavior . I should have known better," he wrote. "I apologize to my amazing wife and family for putting them through such an embarrassing situation, and I am focused on being the best husband and father I can be."

And Jessica obviously forgave him: The couple walked the red carpet together for Justin's new film, Trolls Band Together, on Nov. 15th. The source said, "Jessica has always turned the other cheek, as hard as it was." And of course, "Justin feels grateful for her support."
