Britney Spears enjoyed a family day out with her sons Sean Preston and Jayden James at the Dollywood theme park in Tennessee.

The singer, 44, posted a photo of herself on social media wearing a face mask and dressed in a red shirt and denim mini-skirt as she stood between her children.

Alongside the snap, Spears wrote: “Wow wow!!! I didn’t know this place existed, so incredibly cool and exciting… but extremely hot and my skirt is too big for me… family outings!!!

Spears shares her children with ex-husband Kevin Federline, whom she was married to from 2004 to 2007.

The Toxic singer previously reflected on the “hardest years of her life” when she was separated from her sons after her conservatorship case, which lasted until November 2021.

Spears said she believes her marriage to actor Sam Asghari “felt like a fake distraction to help me deal with” the pain of being away from her children.

The couple married in 2022 but split up two years later.

In a post on Instagram, she wrote: “We’re just people so fragile and human.

“The hardest years of my life were my two sons gone for those 3 years… I was cut off from calling or texting and I remember in shock my secret to survival was denial and a lot of tears.

“It’s weird me and Sam were married but it almost felt like a fake distraction to help me deal with it.”

Spears recently wished both of her sons happy birthdays in September.

For Jayden’s birthday on the 12th, she wrote: “I hope I can be the best mommy in the world every day of ur life!!!!”
