Amid the singer’s rehab stay, a source close to the family spoke out about the relationship dynamics. The brothers are supporting their mother’s decision to get well and absolutely want what is best for her.
“When she’s not in a good place, it’s almost impossible for her to maintain any kind of steady connections,” a source told PEOPLE this week. “She wants to be a good mom though. She really loves Preston and Jayden and listens to them. For Britney, it’s amazing that she gets to spend time with them again. It makes her very happy.”

The Source Believes Ending the Conservatorship Started the Unraveling
Britney Spears was under a conservatorship from 2008-2021. Fans famously marched and campaigned for the conservatorship to end.
