According to People Magazine, which quoted an excerpt from the book, Britney did not want to terminate the pregnancy but ended up having the abortion because Justin didn't want to be a father.
"It was a surprise, but for me, it wasn’t a tragedy. I loved Justin so much. I always expected us to have a family together one day. This would just be much earlier than I’d anticipated. But Justin definitely wasn’t happy about the pregnancy. He said we weren’t ready to have a baby in our lives, that we were way too young," People quoted an excerpt from the book.
