Lynne Watched Britney's Breakdown On TV

More details are unfolding from Lynne Spears' new book 'Through The Storm - A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World.' In the tell-all, Britney's mother claims she saw her daughter suffer a mental breakdown on TV just like the rest of the world.

In the book she says, "It was so shocking, so disturbing to see that girl with such despondency in her eyes - it broke my heart in a million pieces."

She adds, "(Britney) refused to speak to me, and our estrangement lasted an excruciating seven months."
