Kevin Federline has detailed his relationship with ex-wife Britney Spears’ family via E! Online.
In his new memoir You Thought You Knew, the rapper talked about two lengthy text messages his wife Victoria Prince allegedly received from Britney’s sister Jamie Lynn Spears after the “Circus” singer’s controversial conservatorship was terminated in November 2021.
In one message, Jamie Lynn, appeared to share her reaction to Britney “lashing out online” towards her and Kevin’s sons Sean Preston, and Jayden James, as per a copy of the book.
“Honestly, this makes me want to cry because I feel for those boys so much,” the text purportedly from Jamie Lynn to Victoria said. “I’m her little sister by ten years, and I can’t imagine what her actual children must feel like at times, but I am familiar with the feeling of being a dingy trying to survive in a wave caused by another’s ship, feeling like you have to rescue yourself.”
Kevin noted that the Zoey 101 alum stated she “started to resent” Britney, for the way her sons were affected by “how she treated them,” accusing the Grammy winner of being “incapable” of taking “accountability for certain circumstances.”
“I’m still trying to come to terms with how she could be so unaware of anything outside of herself,” the alleged text message continued. “I spent my whole life based around what was best for Britney, and I never wanted to step on any toes as the little sister, so I quietly built my own life and career. I tried to be supportive, but in a way that was healthy for my own well-being.”
Later, Victoria, who married the former backup dancer in 2013, allegedly received a second message from Jamie Lynn after the Sweet Magnolias star bought Jayden a piano for Christmas that year.
“I know I’ve said it so many times, but it’s worth repeating, I’m so thankful the boys have had y’all to raise them to be well-mannered, appreciative, and kind boys,” she texted Victoria, according to Kevin.
“Any parent who’s actually raised their children knows that raising kids is the toughest job on earth, and you both are raising those boys and their siblings while also having to constantly protect and shield them from so much chaos that no one would ever understand unless they lived through it.”
Jamie Lynn allegedly went on to say there was not “enough money or material things in the world” to recognize Kevin and Victoria “for doing what [Britney] couldn’t be bothered to do as a parent.”
“And I’m sure my sister has never thanked y’all for raising her children and still being beyond gracious to allow her so many chances to take part in their lives, even when y’all had more than enough reasons to validate cutting that off,” Jamie Lynn allegedly wrote.
“So I wanted y’all to know how much you are appreciated and supported by those of us who love those boys.”
