Jamie Lynn Spears, 32, has shared her excitement after it was confirmed by ABC that she would be taking part in season 32 of Dancing With The Stars.<\/p>\n
She will be paired with Alan Bersten for the US version of Strictly Come Dancing, making them the first couple officially revealed for this season.<\/p>\n
The sister of Britney Spears was asked in an interview with Good Morning America if she was ready for such a big opportunity.<\/p>\n
She replied: “I don’t know if one can ever be 100% ready to take on something this big; I didn’t realize what a commitment it is, but it definitely is. I’m ready to challenge myself.”<\/p>\n
Jamie Lynn then went on to share that she will not be keeping the weekly salary she gets from the show, but will instead give it to SAG-AFTRA and the WGA amid their ongoing strike.<\/p>\n

What are you doing Mom?\u2019<\/p>\n “But she was like, \u2018Mom, you have to do it.’ She\u2019s an athlete so I think she wants to see me kind of push myself.<\/p>\n “Typically I’d be working on different ventures but I think it\u2019s just important that I have this opportunity.<\/p>\n “And if I get up there and even if I embarrass myself, I’m doing it for a good reason and hopefully giving back to the community that’s literally given back to me since I was a little girl.”<\/p>\n Jamie Lynn has had a very up-and-down relationship with her sister Britney over the years due to the singer’s conservatorship.<\/p>\n In 2008 Britney was involuntarily placed in a conservatorship with her father Jamie Spears, with it lasting until November 2021.<\/p>\n Jamie Lynn then released a memoir, Call Her Daddy in 2022, with Britney sharing her fury over the “betrayal”.<\/p>\n The pair seemed to have fixed their relationship in recent months, with Jamie Lynn telling Variety in July: “I have nothing but absolute love for every single one of my family members.
