London
(ANI):
Popstar
Britney
Spears
has
claimed
that
she
was
tricked
into
the
divorce
that
led
to
her
bitter
custody
battle
with
ex-husband
Kevin
Federline.
The
Toxic
singer
is
convinced
that
Federline
planned
an
argument
at
a
Manhattan
hotel
last
year
which
ended
in
their
separation
and
the
fight
over
their
sons,
Sean,
two,
and
Jayden,
14
months.
The
astounding
revelations,
in
the
new
issue
of
the
American
magazine
US
Weekly,
are
expected
to
be
used
by
Britney's
legal
team
to
try
to
refute
K-Fed's
attempt
to
portray
the
25-year-old
star
as
a
permanently
wicked
and
bad
mother.
The
magazine
claims
that
Federline
was
jealous
of
his
wife's
stardom,
which
he
feared
drew
attention
away
from
his
faltering
attempts
to
launch
a
hip-hop
career.He
allegedly
took
advantage
of
her
unpredictable
temper
after
the
pair
had
a
Halloween
2006
argument.
According
Spears" pal
Kalie
Machado,
Federline"s
behaviour
plunged
the
'Toxic
singer"
into
a
breakdown,
during
which
she
desperately
begged
him
to
take
her
back.
“Spears
asked
'Why
did
he
do
this
to
me?"
She
felt
so
unwanted,
and
she's
already
so
insecure,"
the
Daily
Mail
quoted
Machado,
as
saying.
“It
just
made
her
crazy
and
depressed.
“In
the
beginning,
she
really
wanted
to
get
back
together.
She
wanted
so
badly
to
have
the
father
of
her
babies.
Britney
was
calling
Kevin
five
days
in
a
row
nonstop.
“She
would
look
at
Sean
and
Jayden
and
say,
'Where's
your
daddy?
I
need
help.
Where's
your
daddy,""
Machado
added.
