Their Relationship Today
The “Piece of Me” artist shares rare glimpses into her life as a mom with occasional Instagram photos and videos with her sons. They seem to be close, despite the ongoing drama surrounding their family.
Britney hinted she may want to have more children one day during her June 23, 2021, conservatorship hearing. “I have an IUD in my body right now that won’t let me have a baby and my conservators won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out,” the Grammy winner said. In September of that year, Britney announced she was engaged to boyfriend Sam Asghari. The two later wed in June 2022. However, Britney’s sons did not attend the ceremony.
“Although the boys will not be in attendance, Kevin and the boys are happy for Britney and wish her and Sam all the best going forward,” Kevin’s attorney told TMZ at the time.
It was revealed in August 2023 that Britney’s sons had not seen her in months, with KFed claiming that her risqué social media posts were to blame.
“As we all know, raising teenage boys is never easy for anyone … I gave them everything. Only one word: hurtful. I’ll say it,” Britney wrote via social media, adding that she was “saddened” by her ex’s claims. “Reminder that the trauma and insults that come with fame and this business not only affect me but my children as well!!!! I’m only human, and I’ve done my best.”
Despite the drama, her sons said they think their relationship with their mother can “be fixed,” Daily Mail reported on August 1, 2023, about Preston and Jayden filming a documentary with Daphne Barak. Britney seemingly responded to their rare interview in a message via Instagram, where she said they could hopefully sit down “face to face” one day.
In June 2024, Kevin’s attorney Mark Kaplan told Entertainment Tonight that Sean and Jayden were open to mending their relationship with Britney.
“Reconciliations and the reunification of relationships are difficult and take time. They are sometimes complicated and always a lengthy process. The process has not really commenced, let alone [been] completed,” Mark said. “The good thing is that the boys saw their mom was doing well and have a desire to speak with her. There has been some telephonic communication between Britney and her sons, and we think that is a step in the right direction.”
