Britney Spears reunites with lookalike son Jayden, 18, for first time in years in tearful scenes

Britney Spears has reunited with her youngest son for the first time in two years. The mum-of-two, 43, has been separated from Jayden, 18, and his brother Sean Preston, 19, since they went to live with their dad, Kevin Federline, in Hawaii. The My Prerogative star lost custody of her two boys in 2007 amid a mental breakdown that peaked with the pop star attacking paparazzi with her umbrella. When Britney and Kevin's divorce was finalised in June 2007, the pair initially reached an agreement to share 50/50 split custody of their kids. However, on August 28, 2019, the former couple agreed to new child custody arrangements before the boys went to live with Kevin last year.
However, Britney reunited with Jayden on Christmas Day in what the singer tearfully admitted was the "Best Christmas of my life". Sharing snaps of her son smiling alongside her in restaurant next to a roaring fireplace, Britney told her 42 million followers: "Best Christmas of my life!!! I haven't seen my boys in 2 years!!!' Tears of joy and literally in shock everyday koo koo crazy so in love and blessed!!! I'm speechless thank you Jesus!!!" Jayden seems a little shy in the clip, but does says "Hello" as his proud mum beams with pride as she kisses her son on the cheek.
The reunion comes shortly after a source informed Page Six earlier this month that the Toxic hitmaker is working towards 'rebuilding' her bond with Jayden and Sean Preston. "She and her sons are really focusing on rebuilding their bond," the insider stated, and added they are on the road to being 'super close' once again. "These things are a process in every family dynamic.".
