Britney Spears hints at adoption as she shares rare Christmas moment with son
Share:
Britney Spears , 43, has long expressed a desire to expand her family, notably mentioning her wish to adopt a child. In 2021, she stated: "I want to be able to get married and have a baby.". Spears has since shared a heartfelt Instagram post featuring a rare clip of her son, Jayden James Federline, spending Christmas together.
The video, shared this morning, showed Jayden unwrapping a Christmas gift from Spears, and the two appeared to be in high spirits as they enjoyed a cozy festive evening together. Spears captioned the post: "Mamas deserve waaay more respect than they get these days!!!".
She followed it up with another post showing a young girl talking. She wrote in the caption: "I’ve decided I’m going to adopt a baby girl !!!! I’m actually serious !!!". While there is no public indication that Spears has pursued adoption, her ongoing commitment to her sons and her openness about her desire to grow her family suggest that she remains interested in expanding her household in the future.
In 2022, sources reported that Britney and her fiancé at the time, Sam Asghari, were trying to have a baby and were open to adoption as part of their dream to grow their family. The Grammy Award winner – who shared two teenage sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline, 44 – had made no secret of her desire to have another child while she was with Sam.
It was claimed that the couple had already started trying for a baby, with rumours suggesting plans were in motion to add a nursery and playroom to their home. A source previously spoke to Closer about the couple's plans for a family, claiming that Britney and Sam have "made no secret of the fact that they're trying to conceive.".
