Britney Spears responds to her son’s comments about her mental health and guardianship

The Grammy winner took to Instagram on Thursday and responded to an interview her 15-year-old son Jayden Federline did for an upcoming British ITV documentary about the Federline family. The documentary has been previewed by the British newspaper DailyMail, and an article about the interview was written by filmmaker Daphne Barak for the tabloid. Photos of the Federline family are shown, including with her father, Kevin, and other family members, including Spears’ other son, Sean Preston, 16.

In the article, Barak writes, “Both are handsome, creative, and curious about what life has to offer.”

Jayden Federline said that even though he decided not to see his mother for several months, he hopes that time will heal his family.

“I love you so much,” Jayden Federline said of his mother. “I hope it’s the best for you. Maybe one day we can sit like this and talk again.”

In Spears’ post, she wrote, “I tell my son Jayden I send you all the love in the world every day for the rest of my life!!!! My love for my children knows no bounds.”

Federline reportedly addressed the challenges both he and his older brother, who did not do an on-camera interview for the documentary, have felt in recent years.

“We’ve both been under so much pressure in the past that this is our safe place now, to process all the emotional trauma we’ve been through to heal, to heal our mental state,” Federline said in the documentary.

Spears appeared to respond to those specific comments in her post, writing, “I am deeply saddened to hear her outcry that I did not live up to her expectations of a mother.”

Spears also took issue with her son for standing up for his father, Kevin Federline, and his parents, Jamie and Lynne Spears.

Spears’ Instagram post comes days after the star posted and then made private a 22-minute audio clip on YouTube in which she addressed her guardianship and the alleged abuse she says her family suffered .

CNN has reached out to Spears’ representatives for further comment.
