The star also shared that she had no idea her now ex-husband Kevin Federline had a baby when they were expecting a child of their own.

The release of the book, telling Britney’s story in her own words following the end of her controversial conservatorship, has shone a spotlight on her family life, including her sons.

Here is everything you need to know about Britney and Kevin’s children.

How many children does Britney Spears have?

Britney has two sons – Sean Preston Federline, 17, and Jayden James Federline, 16 – whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

Music seems to run in the family, as an insider told Us Weekly ‘They usually listen to rap and EDM.

‘Sean Preston, in particular, is a big fan of synthesizers and likes to toy around with deejaying in his spare time.’

Additionally, Jayden has said that he wants to be a producer when he is older.

Britney previously said that her sons are ‘very private’ and don’t like her posting about them on her social media – but this doesn’t stop the Womanizer singer sharing the odd throwback picture and gushing about them in the caption.

In March, Britney shared an emotional post, claiming that her son’s don’t ‘need’ her anymore now that they have grown up.

Fans flocked to the comments to comfort the star.

‘No matter how grown they are, children will always need their mama!’ said one fan.

Another wrote: ‘They’re just at an age where they are too cool for school. Don’t worry.’

Who is Kevin Federline, the father of Britney Spears’ sons?

Sean and Jayden’s father is Kevin Federline, one of Britney’s former backup dancers.

In June 2023, it was confirmed that Sean and Jayden would be leaving LA with their dad, with Britney having agreed to her ex’s request to relocate, and it was reported that they didn’t plan to see their mum before they left.

TMZ added that Kevin – whose wife Victoria Prince headed with them to Hawaii – ‘wasn’t going to force them to sit down with their mum if they weren’t up for it’.

Britney and Kevin met in 2004 – and after just three months of dating, the pair announced their engagement in July, 2004.

The duo got married that September in Studio City, California.

However, the whirlwind relationship was short-lived, with Britney filing for divorce from Kevin a mere two months after Jayden was born in 2006.

She lost custody of her young sons the next year following a mental breakdown but gained some of it back once she had recovered.

Britney and Kevin had 50/50 custody of their sons until 2019 when Kevin filed a report accusing her father Jamie of being involved in a ‘physical altercation’ with her eldest son Sean.

In a 2019 agreement between the former couple, Kevin was awarded 70/30 custody of the boys, with court documents which were filed and obtained by TMZ stating as much.

Throughout the years, the two have maintained an amicable relationship, with Kevin saying in a 2008 interview: ‘Britney is an awesome mom. That’s one thing I never really have to worry about.’

He added: ‘It’s good for the kids to see that Daddy does care about Mommy, and Mommy does care about Daddy.’

The Woman In Me has seen Britney share her shock at learning Kevin was expecting a child with another woman when they began dating.

She wrote that Kevin was expecting a baby with Shar Jackson when he and Britney began dating in 2004.

Britney was accused of being a ‘homewrecker’ when she and the ‘bad boy’ began dating, but insists in her new memoir: ‘I had no idea when we met that he had a toddler, nor that his ex-girlfriend was eight months pregnant with his second baby.’

Kevin shares daughter Kori Madison Federline, who was born in 2002, and son Kaleb Michael Jackson Federline, born in 2004, with Shar.

He has also welcomed two daughters with his wife Victoria Prince – Jordan Kay, born in 2011, and Peyton Marie, who arrived in 2014.
