(Photo by Chris Polk\/FilmMagic)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/articles\/britney-spears-memoir\/\">Britney Spears<\/a> has hit back at her mother Lynne, sister Jamie-Lynne and father Jamie since exiting her controversial conservatorship and gaining access to her social media accounts again, the pop star interestingly stayed silent on ex-husband Kevin Federline. That may be because up until this week, Kevin hadn&#8217;t attempted to insert himself into Spears&#8217; new life \u2013 but the moment of peace was short-lived.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly, Kevin Federline has given a three-part interview series with iTV and <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-11087695\/Britney-Spearss-ex-husband-Kevin-Federline-says-sons-decided-not-MONTHS.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Daily Mail<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>secured a first-look, releasing a preview article over the weekend. It&#8217;s surprising given Federline has stayed silent about Britney Spears for years now, but Britney&#8217;s husband Sam Asghari alluded to the idea that Federline&#8217;s &#8220;gravy train&#8221; would end soon, suggesting that money may be the reason for the now-interview.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_218696\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-218696\" style=\"width: 605px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-218696 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=605&#038;resize=605%2C1024\" alt=\"\" width=\"605\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=177 177w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=605&#038;resize=605%2C1024 605w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=907 907w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=400 400w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-75885909.jpg?w=127 127w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 605px) 100vw, 605px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-218696\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Britney Spears and Kevin Federline were married in the &#8217;00s, and share two children together.

It&#8217;s been a few months since they&#8217;ve seen her. They made the decision not to go to her wedding,&#8221; he says in the interview series.<\/p>\n<p>Federline also stands by Jamie Spears and the controversial conservatorship he had Britney under, saying it &#8220;saved&#8221; her life. &#8220;I saw this man that really cared, and really cares about his family and wanting everything to be OK. When Jamie took over, things got into order,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, Britney Spears is having none of this. She took to Instagram Stories and her feed to share her thoughts on the interview. &#8220;It saddens me to hear that my ex-husband has decided to discuss the relationship between me and my children. As we all know, raising teenage boys is never easy for anyone,&#8221; she says, adding that she feels the issues between them began &#8220;LONG before Instagram&#8221;.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_218697\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-218697\" style=\"width: 583px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-218697 \" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=767&#038;resize=583%2C778\" alt=\"\" width=\"583\" height=\"778\" srcset=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=2247 2247w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=225 225w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=767&#038;resize=583%2C778 767w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=1150 1150w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=1534 1534w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=400 400w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=155 155w, https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/GettyImages-107462327.jpg?w=2000 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 583px) 100vw, 583px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-218697\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Britney and Kevin share a tumultuous history.
