Britney Spears’ sons are now open to reconciliation with their mother.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Britney’s former husband Kevin Federline’s attorney revealed that their two sons spoke to their mother over the phone and showed interest in reconciling their relationship with the singer.

“Reconciliations and the reunification of relationships are difficult and take time,” said Kevin’s attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan.

Mark stated in a statement, “They are sometimes complicated and always a lengthy process. The process has not really commenced, let alone [been] completed.”

“The good thing is that the boys saw their mom was doing well and have a desire to speak with her,” he continued.

Mark noted, “There has been some telephonic communication between Britney and her sons, and we think that is a step in the right direction.”

Britney’s sons moved to Hawaii to stay with their dad last year who decided to make the movie in May 2023 with his present wife, Victoria Prince.

Earlier in a PEOPLE interview, Britney’s son Jayden, who was 15 at the time, mentioned that he and his older brother’s “safe place” was with their dad.

“We have both been through so much pressure in the past that this is our safe place now, to process all the emotional trauma we’ve been through,” he remarked.

Meanwhile, Jayden added that he hoped to reconcile with Britney in the future.
