As the ice melts between Britney Spears and her children, the singer sent a sweet message for their birthdays

The friction between Britney Spears, her parents and her sister, Jamie Lynn, has been well-documented by the pop star, as she has made some huge allegations about his family on social media and in his memoirs The woman in meUnfortunately, this isn’t the only family drama Spears is dealing with, as she’s reportedly estranged from her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James. Recently, there have been signs that the ice is starting to melt, and the sweet birthday message she sent them seems to be a good sign.

Britney Spears and Keven Federline’s eldest son Sean Preston turned 19 on September 14, just two days after his younger brother Jayden James turned 18 on September 12. Spears celebrated birthday without having to pay child support When it came to her ex-husband, the “…Baby One More Time” singer had a more candid opinion, choosing to honor the boys on Instagram with photos of them with her. She wrote:

This month is my boys birthday!!! Happy birthday 🎁 babies and I hope you all get your wishes and more!!!

It’s a very sweet sentiment, and it certainly reflects reports in recent months that she may be on the path to repairing her relationship with her now-adult sons. In June, Kevin Federline’s attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan shared an update on their situation that sounded promising, saying AND:

The good news is that the boys have seen that their mother is doing well and want to talk to her. There have been phone conversations between Britney and her sons and we think that’s a step in the right direction.

There have been a lot of drama between Britney Spears, Kevin Federline and their two children over the years, but it took a fairly public turn in 2022. Their youngest child, Jayden James, opened up about his relationship with his mother in an interview, including why he and sean preston didn’t attend her wedding to Sam Asghari. It was clear from his comments and response that there was still a lot of tension, but that both were looking forward to a relationship in the future.

It was thought that a The reunion could take place before their move to Hawaii with their father in 2023. Many insiders claimed at the time to have information about mother-son relationship after agreeing to their move. Since the boys were under 18 at the time and her custody agreement was ongoing with Kevin Federline, the “Lucky” singer was forced to sign their move.

However, Britney Spears understands better than most how difficult it can be to repair a damaged relationship, and K-Fed’s lawyer said the healing is in its early stages, commenting:

Reconciliations and reunions are difficult and take time. They are sometimes complicated and always a long process. The process has not yet really begun, much less been completed.

It’s not just their mother that Sean Preston and Jayden James are looking to reconnect with. They’re also reportedly reconciled with their grandfather Jamie Spearsfrom whom they were also separated. The news comes amid reports of multiple health issues for Britney’s father, who recently had to have your leg amputatedand the singer was reportedly a little hurt by her sons’ actions, as her own feelings towards Jamie remain complicated.

Of course, there’s probably a long way to go, but it seems clear from Britney’s birthday message that she remains hopeful about developing a relationship with her sons.
