Inside Britney Spears' Relationship With Her Family Today

August 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Since their divorce was finalized in July 2007, Britney Spears' ex-husband, Kevin Federline, has allegedly been understanding when it comes to giving Spears visitation with her sons. But they have had arguments. Per Us Weekly, a source said "they kept their distance from one another and didn't speak at Sean Preston's Little League game in 2011. The exact reason was not reported. They were on speaking terms again by 2013 (via Us Weekly), but in 2018, things got rough again when Federline requested more child support from Spears, Us Weekly reported. The former couple agreed that Spears would increase her child support payments from $20 thousand a month to about $35 thousand per month.

Federline has always been supportive of Spears' goal to improve her mental health. He has stayed out of Britney's conservatorship issues, but released a statement through his lawyer (via E!), saying that Jodi Montgomery, who took over as Britney's conservator in her personal life in 2019, has "done an admirable job."

As the Los Angeles Times pointed out, Britney's conservatorship is two-fold, with oversight over both her personal and professional lives. Jamie was initially conservator over both until September 2019, when he stepped down from the personal side, citing his health. The tabloids, however, noted this change occurred shortly after Jamie was accused of a physical altercation with Sean Preston.
