Happy birthday, Britney Spears! While she’s known across the globe as an unassailable pop princess, Britney Spears is just “mom” to her two teenage sons Sean Preston, born on September 14, 2005, and Jayden James Federline, born on September 12, 2006. The “Toxic” hitmaker became a mom at a young age — barely 24 years old — while under the scrutiny of the public eye, which resulted in some of the most painful chapters in Spears’ life. During those difficult moments, her parenting was often questioned and shamed by the media, and Spears has had a long road to getting the respect she deserves as a mother.
In 2007, Spears lost physical custody of her sons to ex-husband Kevin Federline. By 2008, her visitation rights were suspended, giving Federline sole physical and legal custody of their sons. Within the past decade, however, Spears has worked hard to be an active participant in her sons’ lives, and to fight for them in court. As of 2019, she retains 30% custody of her two boys with Federline, but with her conservatorship coming to an end, the mom-of-two will hopefully be able to spend more time with her sons and come to a more equal arrangement with Federline.
