Britney Spears 'wants joint custody of kids'

Singer keen for co-parenting arrangement

Britney Spears's dad looks after her estate

Britney Spears is said to be planning to reach an agreement for joint custody of her sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

The singer gave full custody of Sean Preston, almost 3, and Jayden James, 23 months, to K-Fed last month.

But Britney, 26, hopes she'll have more involvement in the boys' lives by the end of the year.

'Britney is doing her utmost to stay out of the limelight and lay low, and just focus on her work,' a source tells the Daily Mirror.

'She is so determined to be taken seriously by the courts, she wants regular drug and alcohol tests to prove she is a reformed mum.

'She thinks by ditching her elaborate pink wigs, and bad boyfriends it will help her case.'

Kevin, 30, is keen for a joint deal, too.

'She has a chance,' his rep tells E! 'Kevin could end up co-parenting the kids together with Britney.'
