Britney Spears just gave fans a sweet—and surprising—peek into her family life. The pop superstar, 44, took to Instagram on January 7 to share a rare photo of her 19-year-old son, Jayden James Federline, and fans can’t get over how grown up he looks.
In the heartwarming selfie, captioned simply “Unicorns,” Jayden beams while holding the phone, towering over his famous mom. Spears, radiant in a pink gown, stands beside him while Jayden keeps it casual in a white tee and gray sweats. The shot marks one of the few times the Toxic singer has shared a glimpse of her sons in recent years.
As Jayden’s gotten older, his resemblance to his dad—Spears’ ex-husband Kevin Federline—has become hard to miss. He’s inherited his father’s tall frame, now noticeably towering over Britney’s petite 5’4” stature.
Though the exact timing of the picture isn’t confirmed, it’s likely recent. Reports say Britney spent Christmas with Jayden, making the holidays especially meaningful for the singer. A source told People magazine, “Britney had a blast celebrating Christmas with Jayden — it’s been such a special holiday.”
Spears also shares an older son, 20-year-old Sean Preston, who reportedly spent the holidays in Louisiana with his aunt, Jamie Lynn Spears. While Britney doesn’t often post photos of her kids, she’s been candid about respecting their privacy. In a throwback Instagram post from 2019, she shared, “My boys are older now, so they don’t like their picture taken ever… so I was thrilled today when they said SURE.”
This latest glimpse into Britney’s life shows a softer, grounded side of the pop legend—reminding fans that beneath the fame, she’s still just a proud mom marveling at how fast her kids are growing up.
