Federline chronicled his marriage to Spears and the consequences of his controversial conservatorship in his memoir, which was released on October 21. The exes were married From 2004 to 2007 they have two children: Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19. Less than a year after the former couple finalized their divorce, Britney’s father announced, Jamie SpearsHe placed her under guardianship after she suffered what was described at the time as a general collapse.

According to an excerpt from the former backup dancer’s book she published New York Times On Tuesday, Federline claimed that Sean Preston and Jayden James were afraid to be with their mother.

“They would sometimes wake up in the night to find her standing silently in the doorway, watching them as they slept — ‘Oh, are you awake?’ — with a knife in her hand,” Federline wrote. “Then she would turn and leave without explanation.”

Federline also noted “one of the hardest nights” he claimed to have ever experienced, which included Spears being placed under involuntary psychiatric hold in 2008 after a confrontation involving their children.

“I felt sick about what she was going through,” Federline wrote. “This was someone I loved. Someone I built my life with. The mother of my children.”

Federline also touched on Britney free movement – Public anger at the end of Jimmy’s guardianship over the pop star. (A judge terminated the conservatorship in November 2021.)

In his book, Federline expressed his belief that the movement may be doing more harm than good. He also reflected on his past social media activities.

“The truth is that this situation with Britney appears to be headed toward something irreversible,” Federline wrote. “It has become impossible to pretend that everything is fine. From where I sit, the clock is ticking, and we are approaching eleven o’clock. Something bad will happen if things do not change, and my greatest fear is that our children will be left holding on to the pieces.”

In an interview with New York TimesFederline explained that he had not spoken to his ex-wife “in years,” but stressed that he supported her through some of the most difficult times she went through.

“I was never against Britney once,” he claimed. “I’ve just tried to help my sons have a great relationship with their mother. And it’s hard because when I really think about everything that happened, my kids don’t know the woman I married. And I’ve spent two decades trying to bridge that gap.”

Britney and her children were estranged at some point after her conservatorship was revoked. As a result, Sean Preston and Jayden James moved with their father to Hawaii. However, the singer and her sons were reunited earlier this year.
