Britney and Justin to get back together?

Britney Spears wants to get back together with former boyfriend Justin Timberlake, according to a source close to her.

Both singers have recently split from long term relationships - Spears' marriage with Kevin Federline had broken down by the end of last year, while Timberlake and Cameron Diaz announced their split earlier this month.

“Britney would love to have Justin back," a friend said. "They still talk a lot and she's been telling friends for months about how good Justin was for her.”

Despite the claims, reports suggest that Timberlake is pursuing an interest in actress Jessica Biel, and the pair have been spotted together recently.
