Britney meets divorce lawyer; Federline plans kids' upbringing

Looks like pop star Britney Spears has had enough of her party animal husband Kevin Federline. The Toxic singer visited a divorce lawyer recently, even as her publicist failed to deny Spears' marriage was as good as over.

According to sources, the two have stopped talking to each other entirely, and Federline spent Mother's Day with ex-lover Shar Jackson, who he shares two children with, instead of being with his second-time pregnant wife and son Sean Preston. “Britney is at her wits end. She's furious with Kevin. Brit has some very serious decisions to make. She really wanted the marriage to work for her family, but it seems to be harder by the day,” a close friend of Spears said.

Rumors say that Spears and Federline are completely estranged and the latter has moved in with his friends. He isn't even aware of his wife's movements and recently, when Spears visited New York with Sean, Federline was nowhere in the picture. The estrangement, however, has done little to faze the aspiring rapper. “She doesn't have the guts to leave me. She's been threatening to divorce me since the honeymoon,” he has been going around saying. In a magazine interview, the 28-year-old also hinted his own music career was being sidelined due to his famous wife's popularity. “The day they judge me as an artiste, not as Britney Spears' husband, that's the day I am looking forward to,” he said.

A source said that the rapper asked Spears to stay off his concert at Las Vegas to prevent her from upstaging him. “It was a full-blown war of words. It was a very bad night for Britney. Kevin didn't want Britney overshadowing him on the red carpet. Britney fled the restaurant and raced up to her suite alone, boycotting his performance,” the source said.

During this difficult time, coupled with her second pregnancy, Spears has found some support in her mother. “As usual, when things go wrong for her, her mom Lynne has stepped in to offer support,” a friend said.

Meanwhile, hubby Federline has already made plans for his kids, both from Spears and Jackson. He wants to teach his children to appreciate the good life by making them work in fast food joints. “My kids are going to have to learn what a real job is, what life is. You don't have it easy with me. Period. My kids are going to work at Taco Bell, dammit,” he said in an interview to a magazine.
Spears and Federline tied the knot on September 18, 2004, and had their first child Sean Preston a year later. Throughout the one and half year marriage, rumors of a rocky relationship between the two have been making rounds. Earlier, the two would deny any discord between them but now, they have chosen to keep quiet about what's transpiring in their lives. Spears, however, has expressed her angst on her Web site in a poem called, Remembrance Of Who I Am, which seems directed at Federline.
