Kevin Federline, the second ex-husband of Britney Spears, is reportedly requesting an increase in child support ahead of their son Sean Preston’s 18th birthday. According to TMZ, Kevin receives $40,000 per month in child support for their two sons, Sean and Jayden, but with Sean reaching adulthood, the amount may decrease to $20,000. In light of this, Kevin is considering taking the matter to court to seek modifications, sources tell the publication. It seems that when the support terms were initially agreed upon, Kevin did not anticipate having full custody of the children, especially since Britney was freed from her conservatorship in late 2021.

It’s believed that if the former backup dancer successfully proves that he needs more financial assistance for the care of their other son, Jayden, the support for both children could potentially increase. It’s also worth noting that child support for Jayden will continue until he graduates high school in 2025. A previous report claimed that Britney was relieved to no longer have to pay Kevin large monthly sums as the children have now relocated to Hawaii with him, where child support laws differ from California — but can potentially extend support until the child is 23 if they are enrolled in college or vocational school.
Kevin’s attorney previously stated that the children had stopped communicating with Britney due to media scrutiny surrounding her conservatorship. But if child support matters weren’t bad enough, Britney is now going through another divorce after her estranged husband Sam Asghari pulled the plug last month. The ongoing legal battle over child support has raised questions about the extent of communication between Britney and her sons since their move to Hawaii.
As Sean Preston’s 18th birthday approaches, Kevin Federline’s child support battle with Britney Spears has become a topic of interest. While child support for Sean is set to end on his birthday, Kevin is contemplating taking their ongoing legal dispute back to court. Currently receiving $40,000 per month in child support from Britney, Kevin is seeking changes specifically regarding their son Jayden James, who is under his full-time care.

The family’s recent relocation to Hawaii could potentially work in Kevin’s favor due to differences in child support laws compared to California. The estrangement between Britney and her sons has been widely publicized, with media attention surrounding Britney’s conservatorship appearing to have an impact on their communication. With Sean turning 18 and no longer requiring financial assistance, the focus now shifts to Jayden and how his support will be determined moving forward. As Britney continues her musical comeback and navigates her new chapter after her separation from Sam Asghari, fans and legal experts eagerly await the outcome of this ongoing battle over child support.
