Kevin Federline praises Britney Spears

Britney Spears’ ex-husband "commends" her for checking into a mental health facility.
The ‘Toxic’ hitmaker has reportedly sought treatment as an in-patient after becoming "distraught" over her father and conservator Jamie Spears’ ongoing health battle, and her decision has been praised by Kevin Federline – the father of her sons Sean Preston, 13, and 12-year-old Jayden – who hopes the whole family are back on the right track soon.
Kevin’s lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: "Kevin commends Britney for recognising that she needs to take a step back and that she is taking the reasonable steps to dealing with her situation in a responsible way. He wishes everyone well."
Britney’s boyfriend Sam Asghari – who has been dating the singer since 2016 – has also praised the 37-year-old pop star for showing "absolute strength" by seeking help.
He wrote: "It isn’t weakness, It’s a sign of absolute strength, people should only be inspired by this, at least I am (sic)"
Sam also shared the same Instagram post as Britney, a quote which read: "Fall in love with taking care of yourself. Mind. Body. Spirit."
The ‘Womanizer’ hitmaker had the same quote on her social media site and added the caption: "We all need to take time for a little "me time." 🙂 (sic)"
Sam is said to have been "very helpful in making sure Britney did whatever she needed to feel better" recently after a tough few months – which has seen her put her Las Vegas residency on hold to care for her dad – with the pair said to be "very much still together".
A source told E!: "Sam has stuck by her side throughout all of her recent struggles and knows that this is just a phase in Britney’s life that they will have to adjust to right now."
Insiders claimed on Wednesday (03.04.19) that Britney checked herself into the facility about a week ago, and is expected to stay there for a month.
In January, she announced she was putting her Vegas run of ‘Britney: Domination’ at the Park MGM resort on hold until further notice due to her dad’s health, which has seen him undergo two major surgeries after his colon ruptured in November.
