Britney Spears has ripped ex-husband Kevin Federline for revealing that she is estranged from their teenage sons — while admitting their troubled relationship started “LONG before” he said.
“It saddens me to hear that my ex-husband has decided to discuss the relationship between me and my children,” Spears, 40, said in a midnight Instagram story after Federline’s interview.
“As we all know, raising teenage boys is never easy for anyone,” the troubled pop star wrote of sons Preston, 16, and Jayden, 15, who did not attend her recent wedding.
However, her biggest complaint was that Federline claimed that the falling out was recent — and based on the boys’ anger at their mom’s racy naked social media photos.
“It concerns me the reason is based on my Instagram … It was LONG before Instagram,” she insisted.
“I gave them everything,” she insisted. “Only one word: Hurtful.”

I’m only human and I’ve done my best.”
In that second post, Spears said her ex should not be speaking out because “whatever is happening outside this home has nothing to do with his home.”
However, she again blamed her once-controlling parents for her latest woes with her own kids.

“During my conservorship [sic] I was controlled and monitored for nearly 15 years,” she wrote in her rambling follow-up message.
“I needed permission just to take Tylenol !!! I should embark on doing WAAAY more than going topless on the beach like a baby !!!!” she said of her racy posts that supposedly angered her sons.
“I’m not surprised that just as my family did their share of interviews, they will too,” she said, seemingly referring to her teen sons and their dad.

In his Daily Mail interview, Federline, 44, said that their sons “have decided they are not seeing [their mom] right now.
“It’s been a few months since they’ve seen her. They made the decision not to go to her wedding,” he told the outlet.
He also insisted his ex-wife was “saved” by the 13-year conservatorship by her dad, Jamie, whom Federline said had been “put through the wringer” with bad publicity.
“I would absolutely welcome Jamie Spears back in the boys’ lives,’” he said of Spears’ dad.
