«Britney Spears and her sons: changes in life after guardianship»
5 march 2026 в 23:37
Britney Spears has once again found herself in the spotlight following the conclusion of her highly publicized conservatorship in 2021. Since then, the pop icon has undergone numerous personal changes, including a brief marriage to Sam Asghari, which ended in 2023, and has continued to engage with fans through social media and new projects.
Britney gave birth to her first son, Sean Preston, on September 14, 2005, a year after marrying Kevin. When Sean was 5 months old, Britney was photographed driving a car with her son on her lap instead of using a car seat, which sparked widespread public outcry.
Sean and his younger brother Jayden were still infants when Britney experienced a breakdown in January 2007. Nine months later, Britney lost custody of her sons, which was awarded to Kevin, with whom she had separated in November 2006. In 2008, a custody arrangement was established that granted Britney and Kevin 50/50 custody of their sons. However, in 2019, this agreement changed to 70/30, with Sean and Jayden spending more time with their father.
In 2023, Kevin moved to Hawaii with Sean and Jayden after Britney agreed to the move. Documents obtained by Page Six confirmed that she supported their decision. «Credit should be given to Britney Spears; she will not interfere and agrees to the move», - her team noted at the time. They also added that their eldest son Sean «will no longer be a minor», - while Jayden «is approaching adulthood». The brothers have largely remained out of the public eye as they grew up.
Britney and Kevin became parents for the second time when they welcomed their son Jayden James on September 12, 2006. Two months later, Britney filed for divorce from Kevin, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce was finalized in July 2007, and as mentioned, Jayden and his older brother Sean initially shared 50/50 custody between their parents until their father gained a larger share of custody in 2019.
In recent years, Jayden and Sean have quietly lived with their father, seeing their mother from time to time. However, on March 3, 2020, Jayden made headlines when he went live on Instagram and spoke about his mother’s personal life, his grandfather Jamie, and Britney’s boyfriend, Sam. Jayden referred to Jamie as a «jerk» and said, «he's quite a big jerk». He also added about his grandfather: «he can die».
As for Sam, Britney’s younger son noted, «I like Sam. He’s nice. He’s really a good guy». He then shared some details about his mother’s music career. «Actually, I haven’t seen her do music. I don’t know, dude», - Jayden said. «I remember once I asked her, 'Mom, what happened to your music?' and she replied, 'I don’t know, dear. I think I might just quit it.' I was like, 'What? What are you saying? Do you know how much money you make from this?'»
Despite mostly keeping their lives private, Britney has shared several public moments with her sons over the years. She brought Sean and Jayden to the premiere of «The Smurfs 2» in 2013, where they walked the red carpet together and even appeared in her music video «Ooh La La» for the film.
The singer has also occasionally posted photos with her sons on social media. She shared pictures from a family trip to Hawaii in 2018 and another outing to Disneyland in 2019, although she noted that she tries not to post them often as they prefer personal space as they grow up.
Reports have also indicated that Britney and Jayden have begun to reconnect following the boys' move to Hawaii, and the pair spent time together again during the 2024 holiday season
