Dancing with the Stars bosses are said to be furious at\u00a0Jamie Lynn Spears’ early exit \u2013 because they had said to be planning for an ‘incredible’ on-screen reunion between the actress and her estranged sister Britney Spears.<\/p>\n
Jamie Lynn, 32, was brutally eliminated after receiving the lowest combined scores during Latin week\u00a0on Tuesday night, alongside her professional partner Alan Bersten, becoming the second celebrity to get the boot.<\/p>\n
Her untimely departure has left frustrated producers seething over the missed opportunity of facilitating a spectacular ‘united front’ between the siblings, according to a source, with hopes that Britney would join the studio audience.<\/p>\n
But bosses are believed to be hopeful at the prospect of snagging their mom Lynne, 68, for a future season.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The show’s bosses are said to be annoyed by Jamie Lynn’s exit as it thwarted their plans to facilitate a reunion between her and her estranged sister Britney Spears\u00a0<\/p>\n
A source close to the show exclusively told DailyMail.com said: ‘Producers hate that Jamie Lynn has been voted off so early on the show, they really thought that they would have had a chance to get Britney to the ballroom and come to the show to not only support her sister but support her book release.<\/p>\n
‘Now neither will happen and it is a lost opportunity that could have been incredible television.<\/p>\n
‘If they couldn’t get Britney, they wanted someone in her world to get her in the ballroom.’<\/p>\n
The insider added: ‘The show has had Britney Night in the past and they are enamored with her like the rest of the world, they thought if they could get her sister, or her mom cast it would lead to a chance to get Britney on the show or at least do a taped message or talk about the show.<\/p>\n
‘There are so many emotional stories that come with the contestants and their individual seasons that if there was even a chance to get Britney on the show and show a united front with her family or a chance to reconcile past issues it would be the best-case scenario.<\/p>\n
‘It didn’t work out to their liking but they are happy that they at least tried. And who knows, maybe Britney’s mom will do the show in future seasons.’<\/p>\n

Dancing with the Stars producers were reportedly hoping to get Britney to the ballroom to support her sister<\/p>\n

They’re now said to be keeping their fingers crossed for the sisters’ mom Lynne Spears to sign up to compete in a future season\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jamie Lynn’s premature exit from Dancing with the Stars came amid reports that her ailing father\u00a0Jamie has moved in to live with her following another failed stint in rehab for alcoholism \u2013 which is said to have caused further friction between her and Britney.<\/p>\n
Jamie – whose lengthy battle with booze was first detailed by his ex-wife Lynne in her 2008 book Through the Storm – left rehab in July after completing a 30-day program, according to a Spears family insider, who claims that the father-of-three has since struggled to stay sober.<\/p>\n
The 71-year-old has since been living in a guest house at Jamie Lynn’s property in Hammond, Louisiana, with her husband Jamie Watson and their daughters Ivey, five, and Maddie, 15.<\/p>\n
According to the source, Jamie Lynn’s decision to welcome her father into her home has done little to mend her already-fractured relationship with her sister, who they said is ‘extremely bothered’ by the set up.<\/p>\n

Britney has reportedly hopped on a plane to a luxury getaway in French Polynesia\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘This obviously infuriates Britney for so many reasons,’ they claimed. ‘She feels betrayed that her sister is putting up her dad and allowing him to watch her kids after what he did to her.<\/p>\n
‘She cannot believe that Jamie is caring for Jamie Lynn’s daughters when he was partially to blame for Britney’s falling out with her two sons.’<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Britney has reportedly jetted off to a private island in French Polynesia to decompress.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to TMZ, the Toxic singer\u00a0is staying at the famed Brando hotel where she won’t be bothered by onlookers.<\/span><\/p>\n A source told the publication that\u00a0Britney needed some ‘serious rest and relaxation’ after coming under fire over a video which showed her dancing around her home waving knives so she headed to the luxury retreat with her pals.<\/p>\n
