Britney Spears is reportedly planning to release a diary of her marriage to either correct or confirm the tabloid rumours, and about her experiences as a new mum.

Britney and estranged husband Kevin Federline kept a video diary of the start of their relationship - which was turned into the Britney and Kevin: Chaotic tv show - but also kept a written journal during the rest of her career break.

Regarding its future publication, an inside source told Sky Showbiz: “Britney feels this is the honest way to explain to fans her thoughts, fears and hopes over the last few years.”

The diary will not be published until after her divorce from Kevin Federline is finalised, the financial issues settled and custody of their two sons has been agreed in case the revelations affect the case.
