Britney Spears' youngest son, Jayden James Federline, was spotted grabbing a smoothie and groceries at Erewhon in Calabasas, California, on Wednesday as the pop star receives treatment in rehab following her March 4 DUI arrest.
The 19-year-old high school graduate is helping house-sit his 44-year-old mother's $9.8 million, 21-acre mansion in Thousand Oaks. Spears' other son, 20-year-old Sean Preston Federline, who now goes by 'Sean P Spears' on his private Instagram account, is also involved.
Jayden, who stands 6 feet 3 inches tall, is reportedly pursuing a career in music production. The Grammy-winning singer publicly showcased his piano skills in 2024. On January 8, Spears wrote on Instagram: 'Sending this piano to my son this year! I will never perform in the US again because of extremely sensitive reasons but I hope to be sitting on a stool with a red rose in my hair, in a bun, performing with my son in the UK and Australia very soon. He's a huge star and I'm so humbled to be in his presence! Godspeed, little man!'
On Monday, a source told the National Enquirer that the semi-retired pop star's sons staged an intervention. 'The boys sat her down and were brutally honest. They told her, 'We need you. We want you healthy.' And that hit her harder than anything. She realizes she hit rock bottom, and she knows strategically this will look good in front of the judge.'
Spears is due back in Ventura County Court on May 4 after reportedly being caught driving erratically at a high rate of speed while 'on a cocktail of booze and Adderall.' Her representatives previously called the arrest 'an unfortunate incident' that was 'completely inexcusable.'
In a statement, they added: 'Britney is going to take the right steps and comply with the law and hopefully this can be the first step in long overdue change that needs to occur in Britney's life. Hopefully, she can get the help and support she needs during this difficult time. Her boys are going to be spending time with her. Her loved ones are going to come up with an overdue needed plan to set her up for success for well being.'
On Wednesday, Spears' third ex-husband, Sam Asghari, who had not spoken with her, told TMZ: 'I think it's great. I think anything that has anything to do with healing and great things. And as long as the person is in charge of that, it's all great.' The Mississippi-born singer was married to the 32-year-old Traitors contestant for 14 months; their divorce was finalized in 2024.
On April 13, Spears' second ex-husband, Kevin Federline, told TMZ: 'I'm happy that she is getting help and that the decision appears to be one that she made and not one imposed upon her by others if it was. The key is that whatever the recommended treatment plan is that she follows it and completes it.'
The former child star's 48-year-old former back-up dancer amassed an eye-popping $5 million in child support payments during the 17 years he had primary custody of their sons. The ex-couple were technically married for only two years before their 2007 divorce.
Federline claimed he was 'not involved' in Spears' 13-year conservatorship, which ended in 2021, despite her former manager Larry Rudolph reportedly describing him as a 'necessary party' to the 2008 intervention after her meltdown over their custody arrangement. Most conservatees are deemed 'gravely disabled' by the court and unable to meet their basic needs of food, clothing, and shelter, while the blonde bombshell was put to work recording four studio albums, a judging gig on The X Factor, and a grueling two-year Las Vegas residency.
Last October, Spears revealed she would be launching her jewelry brand B. Tiny 'soon' as well as an 'extremely wicked' oil scent in a decorative vial. Wicked director Jon M. Chu is developing the avid dancer's fully-authorized biopic based on her 2023 memoir The Woman In Me for Universal Pictures.
Spears, who still pulls 47.1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, originally began her career at age 11, starring as a Mouseketeer in the final two seasons of The All-New Mickey Mouse Club from 1992 to 1994.
