Britney Spears loses custody of her children. David Batty and agencies. Friday 4 January 2008 18.52 EST First published on Friday 4 January 2008 18.52 EST. A US judge has awarded sole custody of Britney Spears' two children to ex-husband Kevin Federline and suspended the singer's visitation rights.
Britneyâs first try at marriage in 2004 to Jason Allen Alexander, ended after 55 hours, earning it an honorable mention in the Guinness Book of World records. The marriage was annulled on the basis that Britney âlacked understanding of her actionsâ. Her second marriage to actor Kevin Federline lasted all of three years, during which time they managed to produce two children. Part of the divorce settlement was that the couple would have joint custody of the children. But, in January 2008, Spears refused to relinquish custody of her sons to Federline.
