Britney Spears is wrapping up a significant chapter in her life by making her final child support payment to ex-husband Kevin Federline this Friday. The 42-year-old pop icon has been diligently making bi-monthly payments for their youngest son, Jayden, who recently celebrated his 18th birthday.
According to sources from TMZ, Britney paid $10,000 at the start of the month and is set to send the last $10,000 payment in just a few days. This marks the end of a lengthy financial arrangement that has seen its fair share of ups and downs.

The child support saga has been quite the rollercoaster ride. Britney's lawyer, Laura Wasser, and Kevin's attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, were embroiled in a legal battle earlier this year over the amount Britney should pay. Ultimately, the two sides agreed that November would be the cutoff date, coinciding with their youngest child finishing high school.
Back in 2007, Britney and Kevin had initially settled on a monthly payment of $20,000. However, this amount doubled to $40,000 in 2018 when Kevin had full custody of the kids, despite their previous joint custody agreement. Things shifted again last year when their older son, Sean Preston, turned 18, leading to a reduction back to $20,000 a month.
While the situation has been intense, it seems like they are finally finding resolution. "She's relieved that this chapter is finally coming to an end," a source close to Britney shared to TMZ. It's been a long and challenging process, but she's happy to have fulfilled her obligations.
Amidst the drama, Britney recently reunited with Jayden after years of estrangement and even made a move to Hawaii. It's heartwarming to see them reconnect, and hopefully, their relationship continues to flourish.
Reflecting on the entire ordeal, it's clear that both Britney and Kevin have endured a lot. Despite the challenges, they've managed to navigate the complexities of co-parenting for the sake of their children. As Britney prepares to make her final child support payment, it serves as a reminder that even through difficulties, resolution and closure can be achieved.
Now, as they both look ahead, we hope they can focus on co-parenting positively and healthily, ensuring the well-being of their children remains the top priority.
