    In his new memoir You Thought You Knew, Kevin Federline made bombshell claims about the singer, whom he was married to from 2004 to 2007.

    He claimed it’s “impossible to pretend everything’s OK” since her conservatorship came to an end.

    Even though they haven’t “spoken in years,” he has been watching from afar and expressed concern about her current “situation.”

    One of the chapters in his book includes claims about Britney being so erratic that their sons would be afraid to go back to her house.

    The boys would talk about waking up and finding their mother watching them sleep with a knife in her hand, Kevin claimed.

    “They would awaken sometimes at night to find her standing silently in the doorway, watching them sleep — ‘Oh, you’re awake?’ — with a knife in her hand,” he wrote in the memoir, slated to release on October 21.

    “Then she’d turn around and pad off without explanation,” he added.

    They had a long, messy custody battle over their kids, who largely grew up in their father’s care and moved to Hawaii with him in 2023.

    “I’ve never, ever, once, been against Britney,” he told the New York Times in an interview.

    He said he has only tried to help his sons have “an incredible relationship” with their mom, but it’s been “hard.”

    “My kids do not know the woman that I married. And I’ve spent two decades trying to bridge that gap,” he added.

    After an excerpt from Kevin’s book was released, Britney’s team accused him of trying to profit off her since her child support came to an end, as both Sean and Jayden are adults.

    “With news from Kevin’s book breaking, once again he and others are profiting off her and sadly it comes after child support has ended with Kevin,” the representative said.

    The rep said the Grammy winner only cares about her children and their well-being during this “sensationalism.”

    “Honor thy mother and father, but always protect your heart. Only honor them if they have sacredly honored you !!! If not, you find a new family,” she wrote.

    In light of widespread speculation, Kevin addressed claims that accused him of releasing his memoir because the child support came to an end.

    He initially smiled when asked about his intentions behind the book during an interview with Entertainment Tonight.

    “You want to go there right away? Alright. I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t want this book to be successful. I wish I’ll sell a million books or more, or whatever,” he said.

    The father then claimed money wasn’t the “root of this story” and “never has been.”

    Towards the end of his 228-page book, Kevin claimed the current “situation with Britney feels like it’s racing toward something irreversible.”

    “It’s become impossible to pretend everything’s OK,” he added. “From where I sit, the clock is ticking, and we’re getting close to the 11th hour. Something bad is going to happen if things don’t change, and my biggest fear is that our sons will be left holding the pieces.”

    A source said Britney is “not scared one bit” about Kevin’s book because she has already detailed her side of the story in her own 2023 memoir The Woman In Me.

    “Absolutely nothing is going to surprise her,” the source told the Daily Mail.

    The insider claimed the Gimme More singer would let things play out “naturally” with Kevin’s memoir.

    “Now granted, Britney does her own thing and anything can happen with her at the fall of a hat and one late night she could tweet something out there,” they told the outlet.

    “But this is different because she doesn’t want to get into it because of her kids and still wants some semblance of a relationship with them and she feels if she talks back on anything Kevin says in the book, it could provide a fallout, and she doesn’t want that to happen,” they continued.

    Is there a purpose to this book other than to publicly shame Britney?

    Gold digging. Trying to get people to read his book because no one cares about his memoirs. Britney Spears seems like she’s not well but then everyone around her treated her like they were vampires and she was a feeding source, so I’m sure that does some damage.

    My therapist told me when she was in grad school they had told her to not even bother with personality disorders. They're also widely misunderstood. I've spent years in treatment for mine. It's disheartening to see all these people who can actually afford the treatment to still be all messed up. Or people who do seek treatment and pay but still deal with their disorders and or emotional instability. I couldn't tell you how often Bipolar disorder is misdiagnosed or is with a personality disorder. Then they love to give you pills that don't actually fix the trauma. You're still gonna split and or blame shift. The pills they gave me were major sedatives. I won't take those again. Ridiculous. I'm not even manic. I'm emotionally unstable emotional instability not Bipolar. All they want is for you to not be manic so they throw you on dopamine blockers. Motivation blockers that are sedative and cause weight gain at times. A doctor with a degree told me she didn't think I was Borderline because I have "empathy!" I'm like I Split!! Everyday, all day on everything. I'm a Borderline! This is why self awareness is so good and research on your own is so smart. As if a pill will fix your fear of abandonment, self worth and insecurities 🙃 It's sad if my psychologist can't even get it right. My secondary is self defeating. Emotional instability with self defeating personality. She's like Borderlines are like Narcissists. It's not really true. And it depends. They can be both but I can acknowledge my faults an have no need to protect my ego (power and control.) Your secondary matters! We're not all one thing. It's a combo meal deal. Our defenses. Also put Self Defeating back into the DSM!!!!!!

    Any ex who hates someone enough to write a tell-all scandal book for money hates them enough to write a tell-all scandal book, so the profit angle doesn't mean much to me. The fact it's in a book means the allegations are very specific and therefore subject to libel. Do I take his word for any of it? Absolutely not. But for those who care, for whatever reason, okay, now we have his side.

    I’m honestly with the ‘idk what his intentions are, or if he’s really a decent person, but Britney definitely is slowly losing it” people, more and more every day and has been for years. My fiancé and I were listening to some throwbacks and watching the baby dance and get down to the songs last night and ended up talking about her, actually, after listening to a Justin Timberlake song. We both said something about the look in her eyes in her videos. Something broke in that poor girls mind and soul and has not been right since. It honestly so sad to watch someone you idolized as a child go through something like that. I really hope someone gets her some kind of help, whether it be rehab, or a psychiatric facility, or both, she needs something. It’s time everyone stops letting her “do her own thing” and ignoring the signs and help her. After all she’s been through she deserves someone actually looking out for HER because SHE deserves to be the one benefiting for once
