Britney Spears’ ex-husband Kevin Federline recalls ‘fearful’ sons finding her ‘watching them sleep with a knife in her hand’

Britney Spears’s ex-husband, Kevin Federline, has claimed the “Toxic” singer would watch their two sons sleep with a weapon in her hand.

Federline, 47, was Spears’s second husband from 2004 to 2007. The two were locked in a long-winded custody battle over their children Sean Preston, 20, and Jayden James, 19, which ended in 2008 after Spears suffered a mental breakdown and was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold, leaving Federline to retain sole custody. In February of that year, Spears entered into a conservatorship with her father, Jamie Spears, who took complete control over her assets.
