Kevin Federline thinks Britney Spears’ conservator is doing an ‘admirable job.’
The Toxic singer’s father, Jamie Spears, stepped down as conservator due to health reasons in September 2019 and was replaced by her care manager, Jodi Montgomery and although the Gimme More hitmaker later stated she was ‘strongly opposed’ to having her dad retake control of her affairs, a judge ruled to keep him as co-conservator in November 2020.
Her ex-husband, Kevin Ferderline – with whom she has sons Sean, 15, and 14-year-old Jayden – has ‘stayed out’ of the issues surrounding the conservatorship but approves of Jodi’s appointment.

His lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, told E! News: ‘Kevin has no involvement with regard to Britney and her attorneys asking to remove Jamie as conservator. He has stayed out of the conservatorship issues.
‘He thinks Jodi Montgomery has done an admirable job and he has no other position to state with regard to the conservatorship.’
In 2019, it was agreed that Kevin would have 70% custody of the boys and Britney to have them the rest of the time and the dancer is happy with the arrangement.

The lawyer said: ‘[The children] are doing great and Kevin is enjoying watching them grow up and evolve.
‘Kevin enjoys the full extent of the custody that he has. Both parties are working well in exchanging custody.’
He also noted that Jamie had been abiding by the restraining order Kevin was granted two years ago after he alleged there had been an altercation between Sean and his grandfather, meaning they haven’t spoken since 2019.

Sam is mad: And it comes after Britney’s beau Sam Asghari said her dad was a ‘d**k’ because he would not let them have a normal relationship
And it comes after Britney’s beau Sam Asghari said her dad was a ‘d**k’ because he would not let them have a normal relationship.
Britney has taken time out for herself in recent years ‘to be a normal person’ and is said to be looking into creating her own documentary that will be in her own words.
This comes after Britney was said to be thrilled that she got a chance to see Jayden and Sean on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, TMZ reported, as they take it in turns after Britney had the children last Christmas.
Britney gave birth to Sean in September 2005 and one year later welcomed Jayden into the world.
The couple were married in 2004 and their divorce was finalized three years later.
Kevin has two children with ex Shar Jackson, in addition to two kids with wife Victoria Prince.

Last year Jamie insisted he missed Britney.
He said: ‘I love my daughter and I miss her very much. When a family member needs special care and protection, families need to step up, as I have done for the last 12-plus years, to safeguard, protect and continue to love Britney unconditionally.
‘I have and will continue to provide unwavering love and fierce protection against those with self-serving interests and those who seek to harm her or my family.’
Jamie’s attorney Vivian Lee Thoreen described his relationship with Britney as ‘not that different than your average father-daughter relationship’ and insists they have ‘mutual love and respect’.
She explained: ‘There has always been a mutual love and respect for each other. Until Britney’s court-appointed attorney Sam Ingham abruptly instructed Jamie not to contact Britney a few months ago, Jamie and Britney had spoken often and regularly throughout the entire conservatorship. In fact, they had spoken just the day before and had had a pleasant and collaborative conversation.’
