Britney Spears' eldest son has changed his name after long-awaited reunion with mom
Britney Spears recently reunited with her eldest son, Sean Preston, after a few years of estrangement. But now, it seems that things could be getting better for the pair's relationship.
Sean, 20, is one of two children that Spears shares with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, the other being his younger brother, 19-year-old Jayden James.
In the years following the dissolution of her conservatorship, Spears has been open about the fractured relationship with her two sons, who have spent most of their lives in the custody of their father.
But after a recent reconciliation, it seems that Sean Preston has made a big change, perhaps signalling a closer relationship with his mother.
Why has Britney Spears' eldest song changed his name?
Following his reunion with his mother, Sean Preston Federline has now changed his name on Instagram - from Sean Preston to Sean P Spears - according to reports from TMZ.
Sean was reunited with Spears on a yacht getaway, with the pair sharing snaps on social media of the pop princess with both of her sons.
Throughout the years, Spears has been pictured with her youngest son, Jayden James, moreso than with her eldest son.
But if the pictures posted to Instagram make anything clear, it's that the two could now have a closer relationship than ever before.
What is Britney Spears' relationship with her sons like?
The new pictures come after Spears was recently arrested on March 4 - being taken into custody on suspicion of a DUI (Driving Under the Influence) in Ventura, California.
The chart-topping pop sensation was released the following morning, per arrest records from the Ventura County Sheriff's Office.
Page Six reports that, following her arrest, Spears was being supported by both of her sons.
They cited a source, who said that: "Her sons are with her right now. They love her and want to support her and just want her to feel better."
Spears has often used her Instagram to stay in contact with her fans over the last few years, and posted one such update after her arrest, sharing a snap with her son Jayden James.
"Thank you guys for all your support," she wrote. "Spending time with family and friends is such a blessing!"
Spears is one of the most popular and endearing pop superstars of her generation, known for game-changing, chart-topping hits such as 'Baby One More Time', 'Oops, I Did It Again!', and 'Toxic'.
