Kevin Federline: My marriage to Britney Spears broke down because of the kids

Rapper says he never knew singer was planning to divorce him

Wednesday, 3 December 2008

Kevin Federline has revealed that having children took its toll on his marriage to Britney Spears.

The couple struggled to find time to spend together because they were so busy looking after Sean Preston, 3, and Jayden James, 2.

‘It's hard enough to be in a marriage, and then have a kid, then kids – it changes everything,’ he says.

‘For me, I'd become more concerned with my children. Not that I ignored Britney, but my kids are always most important.’

Kevin, 30, and Britney, 27, split in 2006. But he admits it was unexpected.

‘We were having complications,’ he tells People. ‘But I was trying to work stuff out with her and she didn't even talk to me and went behind my back and filed [for divorce]. [I was] completely blindsided.’

Kevin is also dad to Kori, 6, and Kaleb, 4, with ex-girlfriend Shar Jackson, 32.
