Britney Spears’ Sons Have ‘Forgiven’ Grandfather Jamie Despite Restraining Order Controversy – Perez Hilton


Britney Spears‘ children are making amends with their grandfather Jamie!

As Perezcious readers know, Sean Preston and Jayden James cut ties with the patriarch in August 2019 when Jamie was accused of getting into a physical altercation with Sean, who was just 13 at the time. Per reports, Jamie allegedly broke down a door to get to the teen during an argument and then grabbed him, but there were no bruises left. Regardless, a restraining order was issued. However, the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office ultimately chose not to criminally charge the 72-year-old. Since then, the boys have not been able to see or communicate with their grandfather — until now.

According to their father Kevin Federline’s longtime attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan on Tuesday via Page Six, the restraining order, which was first issued five years ago, “expired on its own terms.” That means the lines of communication are back open, Kaplan confirmed:

“There’s no restraint between Jamie communicating with them or them communicating with Jamie.”

And they have indeed been communicating! The attorney added:

“The boys miss their grandfather. They have forgiven him. […] They have been speaking with him.”

Wow!

On Sunday, a source also told TMZ that the teenagers have plans to go visit Jamie in Louisiana — though nothing has been officially scheduled yet. While the lawyer couldn’t confirm the trip, he insisted Kevin would not “oppose” a visit and that he is “supportive” of his sons reconciling with Jamie. That’s good!

TMZ‘s source also claimed that Jamie’s health issues last year inspired K-Fed and his sons to make amends. After a knee replacement, Jamie came down with a “terrible infection” and had to have his leg amputated. Sickness has a way of pulling families back together, after all. Since making up, the teens have reportedly been having phone calls with Jamie once every 2 weeks, per the insiders. Whoa!

Meanwhile, they’ve also been opening back up to their mother, whom they’ve been estranged from for quite some time. Mark confirmed this reconciliation in June, telling Page Six that the boys had spoken with the Circus singer for Mother’s Day, and noted that it was a “step in the right direction.” They still have a long way to go, though, as he pointed out:

“It’s a process that takes more than just a phone call to accomplish.”

He added that “the good thing is that the boys saw their mom was doing well and have a desire to speak with her.” Seems like positive progress all around for them. Now, we do hope that their reconciliation with the Grammy winner won’t be affected by their mutual desire to reconnect with their grandfather, whom she’s expressed no desire to make up with after the end of her conservatorship. But at least the boys are getting to work on these relationships on their own terms!

Thoughts? Sound OFF (below)!
