The Spears divorce is taking a new turn, with rumors circulating about a possible reconciliation between the pop star and her former sweetheart Justin Timberlake. From that, to various media outlets reporting that Brit has always kept in touch with Justin was just a small step to take.

According to Britain's 'Grazia' Magazine, Justin was aware of how the situation stood between Britney and Kevin Federline even before she mustered the courage to go and file the divorce papers. It seems that she called Justin many times, crying and complaining about the way K-Fed treated her and her children.

'Justin said Britney has called him crying a number of times about her relationship with Kevin. She has gone through an excruciating time. It's very sad. She doesn't want anybody to feel sorry for her as a victim. She has been trying to make it work for the sake of the children', the mag writes, citing an unnamed source.

Proof that Justin knew about the deplorable state of Britney's marriage can also be found in the lyrics of 'What Goes Around... Comes Around' from his latest album, lyrics which reportedly were inspired from his lost love: 'You spend your nights alone/ And he never comes home/ And every time you call him/ All you get is a busy tone/ I heard you found out/ That he's doing to you/ What you did to me'.
