Britney Spears is back in the headlines because of her relationship with her son Jayden James, whom she shares with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. Britney and Jayden, who had been living apart for two years while Jayden stayed with his dad in Hawaii, reunited in November 2024. But now things seem tense again. According to a source, Jayden is not happy with his mom’s Instagram activity.
The source told Star Magazine that Jayden, now 18, finds Britney’s posts, especially her dance videos, embarrassing. He still loves his mom and tries to accept her as she is, but he thinks her social media posts are awkward. Jayden has apparently spoken to Britney directly about how her posts make him uncomfortable and how his friends tease him because of them. The source said Jayden wants to have a relationship with his mother but is also setting boundaries so he feels more comfortable. He understands she will never be a typical mom, but he can only handle so much.
Last November, Jayden visited Britney in Los Angeles, which was their first time together in a long while. PEOPLE reported that spending time with Jayden made Britney very happy. Britney has always supported her kids, including Kevin Federline’s move to Hawaii with them, because she wants them to be happy above all else.
Recently, Britney shared a rare moment with Jayden on Instagram. On June 9, she posted a video of him driving and wrote about how amazed she is that he has grown so tall and how big his hands are now. She said she feels blessed but also asked him to be careful with her heart.
