Britney Spears has finally admitted she cheated on Justin Timberlake with Australian dancer Wade Robson following years of rumours.
The US singer, 41, makes the confession in her new memoir The Woman In Me, according to The Sun.
Robson, also 41, was a dancer for Spears for years, and is known to many as one of Michael Jackson’s alleged victims.
Rumours of Wade and Spears hooking up have been swirling for years. However, this is the first time Spears has confirmed them.
Britney has confessed that she kissed another man while she was with Justin Timberlake.
In her memoir, Spears claims she did cheat one time with the choreographer after finding out that Timberlake had cheated behind her back with a fellow celebrity.
Speaking about the moment, she says in her memoir: “We were out one night and we went to a Spanish bar. We danced and danced. I made out with him that night.”
The singer goes on to claim that she had been loyal to Timberlake for years “with that one exception”.
She also says that she came clean to Timberlake about the incident and that they had agreed to move past it.

‘People will hate me’: Britney Spears drops bombshell in memoir
Just months after Spears confirmed their split, Timberlake released the break-up anthem, Cry Me A River – featuring a lookalike of his famous ex in the music video – leading to plenty of speculation that she had cheated on him.
In her new memoir, Spears talks about Timberlake’s infidelity but refuses to name names as she doesn’t want to “embarrass” the other woman.
Spears has made numerous revelations this week about her life ahead of the release of her new memoir.
Meanwhile, fans were also stunned to learn this week that Spears had an abortion when she was in her late teens after Timberlake said he wasn’t ready to start a family.

“It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn’t a tragedy. I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day,” she wrote, according to People.
“This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated. 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. I’m sure people will hate me for this, but I agreed not to have the baby. I don’t know if that was the right decision.”
