Wasser spoke to reporters outside the courtroom after another hearing in the custody fight between Spears and ex-husband Kevin Federline. TMZ.com and CelebTV cited court documents signed Friday saying Spears will continue to pay Federline $20,000 in spousal support. However, a legal source close to the case tells People mag that it “was an old document filed for housekeeping purposes… All the financial issues in this case have already been decided.” The source says Federline’s spousal support of $20,000 a month ends in November. “But he still gets child support – an amount that’s already been decided. He can come back and ask for more child support, but he has not yet made that request. The only [additional] money that [his lawyer] has requested is to cover his attorney fees.”
Wasser did not confirm any details about what was discussed at the hearing. Asked if this is a frustrating time for Spears because of the negative reactions to her appearance last Sunday at the MTV Video Music Awards, Wasser said, “Yes. I think she just wants to be a mom, and both of her kids’ birthdays are this week, and I think she would’ve liked to celebrate with them without having to worry about the entire nation – the entire world – being concerned about what’s going on with her personally and her custody battle with Mr. Federline.” Federline’s attorney, Mark Vincent Kaplan, said outside court that, as far as how Federline was faring, “He is doing great.” Asked if Spears’s recent public appearance is helping or hindering her case, Kaplan replied, “I don’t know what thing you are referring to, and I’m not going to talk about any strategy. I think how she is doing is something for her attorneys to address.” Wasser, when asked to address a story that Spears tried to offer Federline a settlement, which he was resistant to accept, replied, “I don’t believe that’s true. They met and are trying to work it out so they don’t have to have a judge make determinations for them regarding their kids. I don’t know that he was resistant or she was resistant. They are both trying to work to come up with something together.” Source: People.com |
Britney Spears “just wants to be a mom,” her lawyer, Laura Wasser, said Friday – adding, “I believe this is a frustrating time for her.”

Britney: I feel sorry for you, having to put up with a greedy ex-husband who is only interested in MONEY. Your former staff workers I feel are doing this for the money. You can do whatever you want when the kids are with your rotten ex husband, but when they are with you should keep out of the public eye, as they are watching you like a hawk. Remember Brit, IT’S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY WITH THOSE PEOPLE. FIGHT FOR YOUR KIDS AND BE THE BEST MOM YOU CAN BE! So you walk around the house nude, who hasen’t? I use to take showers with my kids, does that make me a bad mom, No Way! Keep fighting Brit, those kids belong with you and not HIM. God Bless you! Ps: I am 47 years old have 3 kids and two wonderful grand daughters.

I agree with mom myself, I am 27 years old and have a 7 month old son, I too take baths with him. If you was a normal everyday person they wouldnt care what you were doing, but because you make millions they want a piece of it and will go to any lenghts into getting some.
This is all about publicity for K Fed.
Im behind you 100% you keep going girl, you having a rough time and its about time close frinds and family started standing behind you and helping you, not go against you.
