Britney Spears ‘violated’ by Kevin Federline posting videos online

Britney Spears’ lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, is coming to his pop star client’s defense after her ex-husband Kevin Federline leaked videos of her allegedly arguing with her teenage sons.

“Britney Spears is a brilliantly talented, extremely hardworking icon, who is rightfully beloved and respected by millions around the world,” the former federal prosecutor exclusively told Page Six.

“The same, unfortunately, cannot be said about Mr Federline, who for reasons that are inexplicable, decided to give a gratuitous interview that has hurt the mother of his children.”

Mr Rosengart adds that the singer, 40, has “faithfully supported” sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15, and “loves them dearly”.

“Whether he realizes it or not, Mr Federline has not only violated the privacy and dignity of the mother of his children, he has undermined his own children, whose privacy he should protect,” the high-powered lawyer, who helped free Britney from her 13-year conservatorship, said.

“Putting aside his ITV interview, Mr Federline’s abhorrent, ill-advised decision to post an old video of his 11 and 12-year-old children was cruel, bottom of the barrel stuff.”

Mr Rosengart has also claimed in his statement to Page Six that Federline, 44, may have broken the law by posting videos in which Spears did not know she was being recorded, since California is a two-party consent state.

“In addition to demeaning himself and violating societal norms, he has now also created various legal issues for himself including, but not limited to, implicating cyber-harassment and cyber-bullying statutes, among other things,” the LA-based lawyer said.

I have told Page Six it has been his “honour” to work with Spears to “suspend her father as conservator, to help her gain her freedom and dignity, and to help protect her from the type of bullying she endured in the past – and we will not tolerate bullying in any area”.

Mr Rosengart also said he is working with Instagram to “ensure” that Federline “adheres to its rules and we are exploring all appropriate relief against him”.

“In the meantime, as Britney herself poignantly said, whatever is occurring between her and her boys should remain private,” he said. “We urge Mr Federline to act with a measure of grace and decency and to cease from publicly discussing private matters, which benefits no one.”

Federline’s lawyer did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment on Mr Rosengart’s statement. Overnight, Federline deleted the three clips from his Instagram of him.

Just hours before, the former backup dancer, who was married to Spears from 2004 until 2007, shared the videos on his platform with the caption, “I cannot sit back and let my sons be accused in this way after what they’ve been through . As much as it hurts us, we decided as a family to post these videos.

“This isn’t even the worst of it. The lies have to stop. I hope our kids grow up to be better than this.”

A source from Spears’ camp exclusively told Page Six in response to the posts at the time, “Kevin is disgusting. He is weaponizing the kids by releasing the videos. But in these clips, Britney is just being a mum.”

The internet widely agreed, with people on social media commenting how Spears appeared to only be trying to discipline her children.

One person wrote, “The fact that Britney Spears has to remind her own kids that she is a WOMAN and she deserves RESPECT tells us all we need to know about Kevin Federline’s parental influence. That man is pure evil and he’s raised those kids in his image of him. Truly tragic.”

Another tweeted, “Dear Kevin Federline. You released a ‘scathing’ video of a mum being a mum. Sometimes mums – gasp – have reactions. They might discipline by taking things away or ask for respect. This is shocking but sometimes mums will argue with their kids.”

Spears herself gave insight earlier this week into how difficult it has been for her to co-parent with Federline after he shared in a preview for an ITV interview that Sean Preston and Jayden James have chosen “not to see” their mother for “a few months”.

The singer called the claims “hurtful” on Instagram, saying it “concerns” her. She added later that her sons de ella would act “hateful” towards her when visiting.

Britney Spears: Kevin Federline posts videos of singer arguing with her children

Britney Spears’ ex-husband, Kevin Federline, has leaked videos of the singer arguing with her children after she complained publicly about them allegedly disrespecting her.

Federline, 44, posted the private footage on his previously dormant Instagram page on Wednesday night, US time.

“I cannot sit back and let my sons be accused in this way after what they’ve been through,” Federline wrote, alluding to Spears’ public remark hours earlier that her teenage sons had been “hateful” while visiting her house.

“As much as it hurts us, we decided as a family to post these videos the boys took when they were 11 and 12. This isn’t even the worst of it. The lies have to stop. I hope our kids grow up to be better than this.”

The two boys, Sean Preston and Jayden James, are now 16 and 15 years old, respectively.

In the first video posted by Federline, Spears can be heard arguing with her sons in the dark.

“This is my house. If I wanna come in here and give you lotion for your face cuz it is coarse, and all you tell me is, ‘It’s fine, it’s fine,’ no it’s not fine!” she says.

“You better all start respecting me, are we clear? And when Robin calls … even Robin is a f*****g kid.”

It is unclear who exactly “Robin” is.

“You all need to start treating me like a woman with worth. I am a woman, OK? Be nice to me. Do you understand? Spears continues.

The second and third videos, filmed during a car ride, show the singer asking one of the children: “Have you lost your f***ing mind?”

“I am shocked as f*** with you, and I don’t know what to do… I don’t know what to say. But I do care, more than you know.”

As the conversation continues it becomes apparent that one of the boys is upset because his phone has been taken away, apparently as punishment for not wearing shoes outside.

“If you really cared you wouldn’t take my phone away,” he tells his mother.

Spears this week ripped Federline for revealing that she is estranged from their sons — while admitting their troubled relationship started “long before” he said.

“It saddens me to hear that my ex-husband has decided to discuss the relationship between me and my children,” Spears said in a midnight Instagram story earlier this week.

“As we all know, raising teenage boys is never easy for anyone,” the troubled pop star wrote of the boys, who did not attend her recent wedding.

Spears lashed out after her ex revealed that she had not seen their sons for months — even though they live just a three-minute drive away from the sprawling Calabasas mansion she bought with new husband Sam Asghari in June.

However, her biggest complaint was that Federline claimed the falling out was recent — and based on the boys’ anger at their mom’s racy naked social media photos.

“It concerns me the reason is based on my Instagram… It was LONG before Instagram,” she insisted.

“I gave them everything,” she insisted. “Only one word: Hurtful.”

In a follow-up post, she wrote, “Reminder that the trauma and insults that come with fame and this business not only affect me but my children as well !!! I’m only human and I’ve done my best.”

In that second post, Spears said her ex should not be speaking out because “whatever is happening outside this home has nothing to do with his home.”

On Wednesday, she wrote that “I know teenagers are hard to deal with but COME ON”.

“There’s being rude, then there’s just being HATEFUL. They would visit me, walk in the door, go straight to their room and lock the door.

“I’m like, why come visit me if they don’t even visit me!

“I don’t know what’s going on in their heads. I always TRIED and TRIED, and maybe that’s why they stopped coming here. I wanted them to love me so much that I might have overdone it.”
