“Right now, all I can say is that I will share my truth — the real truth — when the time feels right for me,” Brittany remarked. “At present, my focus is on myself and the most precious thing in my life, my wonderful son.

“It’s very upsetting to her and she is sick to her stomach over it,” the insider added. “She is shocked that photos surfaced and that they are out in public. Lori was with Brittany through dark days.”
