Britney Spears' ex-lover killed by Afghan Taliban .

 

Pop star Britney Spears is left "devastated" after her former lover and a hero pilot, who helped her quit booze, has been killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan.
John Sundahl's helicopter was shot down near Kabul where he had been working for several months as a private contractor ferrying officials across the war-torn country.
The 44-year-old's brother Karl said: "It's heartbreaking - John went there to try to repair the country.

 

 

Britney, 33, dated John in 2007 after they met at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting in Los Angeles and she has credited him with helping her beat her drink problems, the mirror.co.uk reported.
They remained friends after their romance ended but were said to have reignited their relationship last summer.
A source close to Britney, who has sons Jayden James, 8, and Sean Preston, 9, with ex-husband Kevin Federline, 36, said: "She is devastated. Britney thought he was a lovely man."
Speaking from his home in Los Angeles, his brother Karl told how John died.
"John was on a journey from Kabul when he was shot at and killed. We were told by the State that John had died, they told us the Taliban did it. This is just awful. My family are heartbroken, my parents are elderly so this is very tough for them, and all of us. We know Britney's upset too.
"John was still good friends with Britney, he talked to her regularly. They dated for a while but always kept in touch afterwards," the Mirror quoted him as saying.
John's body was repatriated to the US last week and a small family funeral was held at a Buddhist temple in LA.
