Britney Spears signs $15 million tell-all book deal

[trixie]

I don't think he specifically named Jamie, just "the rest of the family" which of course he had to know weren't invited because Britney's feuding with them all. Not really sure what he meant by that, or if it was just an excuse because he didn't want to say the real reason.

[sputnik]

he had this to say about his grandfather which i think is interesting. given what he said about jamie further down, and lynn and their uncle, i think it's pretty fair to say  he was referring to all of them - including jamie - when he said he wouldn't go to the wedding if they weren't also invited. the whole thing sounds very coached to me. 

“At the time it just wasn’t a good time to go,” Jayden said.

“I’m not saying that I’m not happy for her. I’m really happy for them, but she didn’t invite the whole family, and then if it was just going to be me and Preston, I just don’t see how that situation would have ended on good terms.”

In November 2019 he took out a restraining order against his former father-in-law Jamie following claims of an altercation. But he believes Jamie 'really cares about his family' and the sentiment is one his sons echo, despite having been critical towards him in the past.

Jaden said: 'At first he was just trying to be like any father letting her pursue her daughter's dream of becoming a superstar but I did think maybe the conservatorship went on too long, probably why my Mum was very angry about the whole situation that she was working for too long and I personally think she was. She should have taken a break and relaxed.'

But he adds that Jamie 'doesn't deserve all the hatred he is getting in the media. I love him, with all my heart. He was just trying to be a father.'

He says his mother is 'ceasing to realise how much he cares for her' and cannot parry the manipulative Spears family Britney has portrayed with the relatives he knows.

'When I meet them in person they would not do such things,' says Jayden, describing his fun loving Uncle Bryan as someone who 'always wants to go and play ball in the park' and his grandmother Lynne, who he calls Memow, 'a really nice person'.

'Whenever I see her, she cares about me. They are not bad people! They know what we are going through now. They want our future to be what we want it to be. They just want to watch over us. Memow and Uncle Bryan are a good part of our lives. They have taught me how to deal with things.'

Not that he has always felt this sanguine towards them. In March 2020 Jayden, when questioned by fans on social media, described Jamie as a 'd**k.' Now, however, he says: 'Looking back, I regret saying all kinds of things. I really feel bad. Preston and I feel bad. We want to see him. I want to see him, sit with him next to the piano, talk about my future.'

It could be as simple as he said - that if nobody else in the family was invited, then it was just him and his brother. In that case, they wouldn't know anyone else at the wedding. Assuming his experience with being alone with his mother has been bad and/or chaotic, then I can understand not wanting to be in that situation without any family support. He may not have needed the whole the family to be invited, but with all of them excluded, he and his brother would have to face the situation alone.

I think kfed and boys are being used as leverage to try and get Brit to drop her case against Jamie.

13 years of what I say goes then all of a sudden nada. Of course they have to up the ante. First is to make her look mentally unwell... Interesting someone pointed out in a previous comment they had 13 years to assist Brits mental health. Instead she was overworked.

They must hate that shes remarried and moved house. Mainly because these things were out of their control.

^^^ they don't need britney's help to make her 'look' mentally unwell ... she does that all on her own.

Also, I don't know if they've ever spent time with their mother without a handler being there. So they just didn't want to show up at the wedding alone, with no support. It seems they're uncomfortable with the situation, and seeing her IG rants, who could blame them.

Yes. She looks mentally unwell because she IS mentally unwell. I don't blame the conservators for not getting her all better in those 13 years. People don't just get 'cured' of a mental illness. I'd be willing to bet since the conservatorship ended, she hasn't sought any help or taken any medications that were previously prescribed. A person can't be helped if they're non-compliant.

[cornflakegrl]

Make her look mentally unwell? When did we start serving cool aid around here?

[czb]

^^^ yup.

one of the 10,000 reasons mental fitness is not really addressed.

[chaz]

Well, in terms of saying she has dementia.

[grandknight]

I wonder if her family ever told her what her diagnosis is?  She seems to think nothing is wrong with her. 

[trixie]

lol, of course she thinks nothing's wrong with her. It's a symptom of her mental illness.

Somehow I think if she was told a diagnosis, she would already have denied it on Instagram.

[firebrat1229]

Nothing is ever wrong with them, it's everyone else.

To ask my son, everyone in the world is at fault and he's perfectly normal/fine. And he really believes it.

It's exasperating but after awhile you learn to deal. Some days I have to hide from it when I know my own mental health can't cope.  Those are usually the days he's spouting QAnon or some other Trumper nonsense.  Those are my triggers, since his mother is certainly quite the opposite in that regard.  He refers to me as a crazy liberal.  Well, if being disgusted by QA and Trump makes me that, I'll gladly consider myself one. ha!

Uhm well...I don't recall there being a single terrible picture of her from her time with Pepsi.

*shrug*

I presume it's the new husband who is taking these photos. Someone is behind the camera egging her on.
