Britney Spears says her sons have been ‘pretty harsh’ for not wanting to see her

Britney Spears has said her children’s decision to spend less time with her is “pretty harsh” in a now deleted Instagram post.

On Wednesday (10 August), the singer posted a lengthy statement to the social media site in response to claims made by her ex-husband Kevin Federline. During an interview with ITV, Federline, who was married to the singer from 2004 to 2007, alleges their two teenage sons want to spend less time with her because of several racy images posted to her Instagram profile.

In her statement, Britney hit back at her ex-husband, saying the situation “should have been 100 per cent dealt with privately and definitely not online.” The singer also described how she became frustrated when her sons Sean, 17, and Jayden, 15, would “walk in the door, go straight to their room and lock the door” during their weekly visits.
