Following her divorce from Kevin Federline, Britney Spears was in a downward spiral. Perhaps one of the most notable moments of the singer’s struggles was when she shaved her head in February 2007, just months after filing for divorce. All eyes were on Spears’ every move and the paparazzi continued stalking each one — and so did the court system. The New York Times reports that Spears was ordered to undergo random drug and alcohol testing and, in October 2007, a Superior Court judge ruled that Federline would be granted full custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James.
In January 2008, fans all over the globe watched the news to see an ambulance outside of Spears’ home. According to The Guardian, the “Piece of Me” singer was arrested and taken from her home in an ambulance “after refusing to hand her children over to Federline.” At the time, TMZ reported that Spears was transported to UCLA Medical Center where she was placed on a 5150 hold. Spears was permitted to see her boys, although, at least for a period of time, those visits were supervised. “Since they’ve been gone I’ve honestly felt like a huge part of me has died. Like, literally, have no purpose anymore. They were my joy. They were my everything,” Spears said in a now-deleted audio clip she shared on Instagram in September 2022 (via Insider).
