Britney's love life has always been colourful - as a teenager she famously dated fellow former Mouseketeer and 'N Sync band member Justin Timberlake.
The pair split in March 2002 after a three-year romance that had fans and tabloids in a frenzy.
After they parted ways, Timberlake made reference to the pop star in the video clip to his hit, Cry Me a River.
The clip featured a Britney look-alike and the storyline fuelled rumours that she had cheated on him.
"[The breakup] was horrible,' Britney told People magazine.
'Very upsetting and it took a lot out of me. He was my first real love, and I doubt I'll ever be able to love anyone like that ever again.
'But I'd rather spend two days with my soulmate than the rest of my life with some guy who doesn't mean as much.'
