Britney Spears has addressed the strained relationship she has with her sons and claims they behaved ‘hatefully’ towards her before stopping contact. The drama between the Toxic singer and ex-husband Kevin Federline has escalated this week over their two teenage sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15. Kevin, 44, who was married to Britney, 40, for three years, spoke out about his ex-wife for the first time in an interview, revealing how their sons made their own decision to stop seeing her a few months ago due to being ‘embarrassed’ by her nude social media photos. Britney and her new husband Sam Asghari both fired back at Kevin in Instagram posts, with the pop star saying she was ‘saddened’ that her ex would air their issues publicly, while her fitness trainer husband said there was ‘no validity’ to Kevin’s comments. The Slave 4 U singer has since shared a now-deleted Instagram post explaining why she thinks Sean and Jayden have stopped visiting her.

Vanessa Bryant sobbed in court as details were revealed of how responding officers allegedly showed graphic photos of her late husband Kobe Bryant’s body in a helicopter crash.NBA legend Kobe died aged 41 on January 26, 2020, alongside their 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others when their helicopter crashed in Calabasas, California while enroute to a girls basketball tournament. The basketball star’s widow Vanessa, 40, has filed a federal invasion of privacy lawsuit against the LA County Sheriff’s Department after a deputy and firefighter who responded to the scene, allegedly leaked photos from the crash scene. According to the lawsuit, a deputy is accused of showing photos of Kobe’s body to people at a bar two days after he died, while a firefighter is said to have shown them to off-duty colleagues.The close-up images of both Kobe and Gianna’s bodies were reportedly shared around on at least 28 devices belonging to the sheriff’s department, at least 12 firefighters, while also being shown to people in bars and at an awards gala. The court documents state that Vanessa suffered ‘severe emotional distress’ and even became ‘physically ill’ at the idea of strangers ‘gawking’ at the horrific photos of her husband and teenage daughter’s deceased bodies. Vanessa argues that the officers did not take the photos for official purposes, but ‘for their own personal gratification’. As the trial got underway at a US district court in California on Wednesday, Vanessa’s attorney Luis Li delivered a powerful opening statement, which began with him showing the 10-person jury video footage of Deputy Joey Cruz at the Baja California Bar & Grill in Norwalk, California.  In the clip, Deputy Cruz is seen showing his mobile phone to a
