Get ready for some major headlines, pop culture fans! Kevin Federline, famously known as the ex-husband of pop superstar Britney Spears, is set to release a new memoir titled “You Thought You Knew”. This book promises to be “extremely intimate and transparent”, offering readers a deep dive into his life. But not everyone is thrilled about it, as fans are already expressing their unhappiness.
According to reports from TMZ and a press release, Kevin Federline’s memoir will cover his entire life story. He plans to share details from his humble, working-class upbringing to his exciting career as a professional dancer. And yes, as you might expect, a significant part of the book will focus on his years of marriage to Britney Spears and the constant media attention that surrounded them.
In a powerful statement, Federline shared a glimpse into the book’s emotional depth: “I achieved my greatest dreams, dealt with devastating heartbreak and endured constant mockery, all while becoming the father my children needed while experiencing constant emotional turbulence. If you’ve ever had questions, here you’ll find the answers”. It sounds like he’s ready to open up about some very personal experiences and provide answers to questions many people might have.
For those curious about his personal life beyond the spotlight with Britney, the memoir is expected to shed light on his relationships. Kevin was married to Britney Spears from 2004 to 2007, and they share two sons: Sean Preston and Jayden James. After their divorce, Britney faced challenges, losing custody of their sons in 2007 due to a series of “alarming incidents,” and she rarely saw them during her conservatorship, which lasted from 2008 to 2021.
Since his marriage to Britney, Kevin has built a new life. He married Victoria Prince in 2008, and they have two children together. The family currently resides in Hawaii, where Victoria works as a volleyball coach at the University of Hawaii. Before his highly publicized relationship with Britney, Kevin also had a daughter named Kori and a son named Kaleb with his ex, Shar Jackson. His book promises to cover these different chapters of his life.
While some are curious, many fans of Britney Spears are reportedly “furious and hysterical” about Kevin’s decision to release this book. They have been vocal, labeling him as an “opportunist” and a “professional freeloader”. A common sentiment among critics is that Kevin is only putting out this book now because he is no longer receiving child support payments for his sons, suggesting he’s looking for another way to profit.
Comments from readers online echo these strong feelings. One reader, Fabiola, suggested that people will only read the book to find out about Britney, believing that “if he doesn’t talk about her, nobody buys it”. Another, YasS!, directly called him a “vividor” (freeloader). Joselina, a commenter, remarked that “memoirs” have become a “job” for “famous leeches,” implying that it’s an easy way to make money by talking about others, rather than getting a “real job”. There are clear strong feelings of disapproval and disgust from some parts of the public.
As of now, Britney Spears herself has not publicly reacted to the news about Kevin’s book. However, she did post a message on Instagram on a Wednesday night, encouraging her fans to “keep their heads up and follow their hearts,”which some might interpret as a subtle message in light of the situation.
It’s also interesting to note the timing of this release. “You Thought You Knew” is set to debut almost exactly two years after Britney published her own highly anticipated memoir, “The Woman in Me”. This parallel has not gone unnoticed by observers.
For those ready to dive in, Kevin Federline’s “You Thought You Knew” will initially be released as an audio book. It will launch on Listenin, a new platform by Barracuda Baby Productions. If you prefer a physical copy, don’t worry—printed versions will also be available. Mark your calendars, because the book is set to be released on October 21.
While the public reaction is mixed, some believe it will be “interesting to see his side of the story”. It seems that, regardless of the criticism, many people will likely be curious to hear Kevin Federline’s perspective on his life and his most famous relationship.
