Britney Spears’ family and her ex-husband are expressing grave concerns over the possibility of her methamphetamine use.
The famous “Toxic” singer’s erratic and incoherent outbursts on social media have raised alarm among her fans. Now, Kevin Federline, the father of their two sons, Preston (17) and Jayden (16), has openly admitted his fear of receiving a tragic phone call announcing her demise. Both children desperately yearn for their mother to seek help.
In an interview with documentary-maker Daphne Barak, Kevin revealed his apprehension, saying, “I fear she’s on meth—I’ve been praying for someone to expose it so she can wake up. It’s absolutely terrifying. She is the mother of my boys. Every time the phone rings, I dread receiving devastating news. I don’t want the boys to wake up one morning and discover that their mother has overdosed.”
Daphne Barak, who has worked closely with Kevin, Britney’s sons, her parents, and her brother for a new documentary, mentioned in her article for the Mail on Sunday that the boys refuse to meet with the 41-year-old singer. They claim to have witnessed drug deliveries at her residence.
Preston, one of the sons, expressed their heartfelt plea, saying, “All we want is for her to listen to us.”
Britney’s father, Jamie Spears, shares similar concerns that his daughter may suffer a premature fate like the troubled British singer Amy Winehouse, who passed away at the age of 27 in 2011.
In a conversation about the late “Back to Black” singer, Jamie remarked, “Yes, yes, exactly… Britney may die like Amy.”
Despite facing backlash from Britney’s fans due to his role in overseeing her conservatorship for 13 years until November 2021, Jamie asserted that he has always acted in his daughter’s best interests.
He emphasized, “Compare her well-being then and how she is doing now.”
Earlier this year, reports emerged suggesting that Britney would undergo an intervention led by Jodi Montgomery, the singer’s former conservator who remained on her team at Britney’s request. However, the intervention failed to materialize, and Britney took to Instagram to deny its existence.
Daphne recounted, “Jodi had instructed Kevin to prepare the boys for the impending intervention. He was with me, filming, when the moment arrived. I watched him nervously, glued to his phone, waiting for a text from Jodi, signaling that the intervention was commencing. However, no text ever came—only a message stating that Jodi had resigned.”
Contrary to Britney’s public denial of the plan on Instagram, Daphne clarified, “I was there. In reality, she had been informed, and the plan fell through.”
A concerned relative confided in Daphne, saying, “This was their last chance to save her.”
Although Preston and Jayden have had “meaningful conversations” with their mother over the phone, they are not yet ready to visit her. They recalled past episodes of erratic behavior, such as Britney insisting on bathing them when they were 11 and 12 years old. The boys also remembered one particular incident when they found their youngest brother’s bedroom door with their mother standing nearby, clutching a knife.
Jayden disclosed, “She was standing there with a knife.”
Daphne observed, “The boys are striving to focus on their future. It is evident that they feel helpless in intervening in their mother’s life. Their only power lies in keeping their distance, hoping that one day she will comprehend their reasons and they can mend their relationship.”
