Britney Wins More Time With Sons

Posted May 7, 08 7:00 AM CDT in Gossip 

(Newser) – Pop princess Britney Spears will be seeing more of her two young sons, the AP reports. Dad Kevin Federline will retain custody, but a court yesterday extended Britney's visitations rights, a sign of the progress she has made since her father took over the singer's affairs. Federline's attorney, who did not reveal details of the new arrangement, said K-Fed "welcomes" his ex-wife's "progress and consistency."

"We are so pleased with Britney's progress," said a statement from her parents. "And we are very appreciative of the court's recognition of this progress."

In an interview that hits stands Friday, the pop star tells Rolling Stone magazine, “I feel like an old person now. I go to bed at, like, 9:30 every night. I don't go out or anything.” But when she does, she's carefully guarded: The singer’s dates are chaperoned by an assistant and her manager’s colleague, and she is never left alone during interviews.
