In July 2021, the Zoey 101 star-turned-country artist took to social media to share a Daily Mail headline that read, “Britney Spears’ Sister Jamie Lynn Shares Photos of Her Home Life… After It’s Revealed She Is the ONLY Family Member Not on the Singer’s Payroll.” For emphasis, Jamie Lynn added, “Facts… now leave my broke ass alone.” So, is it true that Jamie Lynn doesn’t see a dime from her older sister? The youngest Spears sibling has been working for a long time, but by all appearances, Britney at least contributed to Jamie Lynn getting a foot in the door in the entertainment industry—and maybe, it seems, set her up with some swanky real estate. Here’s what we know about Jamie Lynn Spears’ net worth and exactly how she’s made her money.

Who owns Jamie Lynn Spears’s condo?
In the latest twist in this gossip-filled saga, UK’s The Sun reported on July 20 that a condo Jamie Lynn purportedly owns in a high-rise building in Destin, Florida, was purchased by Britney. “According to tax documents… a Destin property is listed under Bridgmore Timber LLC, a company that Britney has owned since 2000,” the outlet claims. “The Destin condo and the LLC are also listed as properties of Britney’s in conservatorship filings from 2009…Britney purchased the penthouse condo in 2001 and it is currently assessed at just over $1 million.” Jamie Lynn has referenced the pad on social media many times over, seemingly insinuating that it’s hers (or at least, something mutually owned among the Spears family). On July 15, a Britney fan account tweeted a screenshot of Jamie Lynn once telling a fan on the platform, “We have a condo in Destin, Florida, and it’s the best getaway!” In 2016, CMT referred to the property as a “family condo,” while Jamie Lynn told the outlet, “We’re pretty blessed with a big condo… I host everyone at our condo.”
Does Jamie Lynn Spears make money from Britney Spears?
Jamie Lynn has denied profiting from her famous big sister, though Britney claimed in her June 2021 court hearing that her entire family makes money off of her. That same month, Jamie Lynn said in a series of Instagram Stories, “Since the day I was born, I’ve only loved adored and supported my sister… I don’t care if she wants to run away to a rainforest and have zillion babies in the middle of nowhere, or if she wants to come back and dominate the world the way she has done so many times before, because I have nothing to gain or lose either way. This situation does not affect me either way, because I’m only her sister who’s only concerned about her happiness.” That said, Jamie Lynn has been a custodian for Britney’s SJB Revocable Trust, which protects the funds Britney sets aside for her sons, Sean Prestonand Jayden James Federline. In August 2020, while Britney was pushing back on her father’s control of her conservatorship, Jamie Lynn also applied to become a trustee of Britney’s entire estate, which means she could potentially oversee all of the “Toxic” singer’s assets. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean she makes money off of Britney directly—at least, as far as anyone knows. In October 2021, a new controversy arose when Jamie Lynn announced that she’d be releasing a memoir in January 2022 titled I Must Confess: Family, Fame and Figuring It Out. Britney’s fans immediately called foul—and cited the book’s title as another example of Jamie Lynn making money off Britney—since “I must confess” is a lyric from her biggest hit, “… Baby One More Time.” Jamie Lynn’s publisher claimed in a statement that the title was released in error and quickly stated that the memoir will instead be released under the moniker Things I Should Have Said.
