Britney Spears Has Rare Reunion With Son Jayden On Christmas
After enjoying a years-in-the-making reunion with youngest son Jayden over the holidays, Britney Spears asked the 18-year-old to gimme, gimme more.
"I hadn’t seen him in 2 and half years or maybe 3 !!!" the "Toxic" singer wrote on Instagram Dec. 31, giving her 42 million followers another look at her time with Jayden. "I’m in shock !!! He came back and he feels older and smarter than me !!! He’s a man and I cry everyday of my life because of the miracle and genius he is !!! When he plays the whole earth shakes !!!"
And the teen truly is a piece of her.
"Mine forever !!!" she added in her New Year's Eve post. "It’s weird we’re like twins but he’s a boy and I’m a girl !!!"
And as Britney has been doing the work to find the woman in her, she's been repairing her bond with Jayden and his older brother Sean, 20, who live fulltime with dad Kevin Federline , his wife Victoria Prince and their younger siblings Jordan, 13, and Peyton, 10.
“Best Christmas of my life,” the 43-year-old captioned her Dec. 25 Instagram post. “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 !!!”

Britney's sons decamped to Hawaii in 2023, with Kevin's lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan telling People at the time, "The boys are ready to get away from the L.A. microscope."
For instance, they had grown used to people wanting a piece of their ongoing estrangement with their mom.
"Reconciliations and the reunification of relationships are difficult and take time," the attorney told Entertainment Tonight in June when asked about where the Crossroads actress stood with her children. "They are sometimes complicated and always a lengthy process. The process has not really commenced, let alone [been] completed."
But with Britney's 13-year conservatorship ending in 2021, continued the attorney, "The good thing is that the boys saw their mom was doing well and have a desire to speak with her. There has been some telephonic communication between Britney and her sons, and we think that is a step in the right direction."
Her kids would agree.
"I 100 percent think this can be fixed," Jayden stressed of their relationship in a 2022 ITV documentary, noting that they have "no hate" toward their mom, but that living with their dad was what was best at that time. "It's just going to take a lot of time and effort. I just want her to get better mentally. When she gets better I really want to see her again."
The then 15-year-old also shared a message directly with his mother, telling the camera, "I love you a lot, I hope for the best for you. Maybe one day we can sit down like this and talk again."
While we wait to see if Britney and her sons will get together one more time, relive their relationship with a look back at their sweetest moments.
Watching Them Grow
"It's so crazy how time flies .... My boys are so big now!!!!" Britney wrote in a March 2021 Instagram post. "I know … I know … it's very hard for any mama especially a mama with boys seeing them grow up so fast !!!! Talk about enough to make you go to your knees ... GEEZ !!!! I'm extremely lucky because my two babies are such gentleman and so kind that I must have done something right !!!! I haven't posted pictures of them for some time cause they're at the age where they want to express their own identities and I totally get it."

"Great time at Disneyland today .... but I don't remember ever getting that wet on splash mountain!!!" the "Stronger" star captioned an August 2019 Instagram photo series.
