There were rumors about Britney Spears being pregnant because of her increasing girth. We do not know for sure so let’s keep the level at rumors only. Britney has enjoyed a return to popularity as she returned to the sitcom How I Met Your Mother. Britney’s character, Abby, dated Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) but Abby could not make up her mind between Barney and Ted, her other crush. The producer left the ending open in the hopes that Britney would want to return again in the next season.
