Bikini-Clad Britney Spears Admits She's 'Feeling Uninspired' to Make New Art After Ex Kevin Federline Makes Shocking Claims About Her in New Memoir

Britney Spears is taking a creative pause following shocking claims from her ex Kevin Federline in his new memoir.

"Unfortunately, I don’t feel respected at all by the most unbelievably horrible things being said about me," Spears, 43, captioned a video clip posted via Instagram on Sunday, October 26.

She continued, "So I’m not inspired or motivated AT ALL to show new art… but here’s some pretty work from my past that I think was pretty meaningful."

In the throwback video, the "Lucky" singer sat on a sunny balcony in a turquoise bikini top as she worked on an abstract painting while overlooking a garden. The clip then cut to another throwback video of her sons smiling and giggling while painting their own creations at a dining table.

Federline’s memoir, You Thought You Knew, hit bookshelves on October 21 and marked the first time the former dancer spoke publicly about how "he weathered the scrutiny of relentless media coverage, high-profile relationships and the painful reality of raising children under a microscope, all while trying to hold his family together," according to the book's description.

Federline, 47, and Spears were married from 2004 to 2007 and welcomed their sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, during their three-year marriage. In the memoir, Federline reflected on the "last straw" in his relationship with Spears, recalling how he was "crushed" by "late-night calls" he received from her when she was allegedly intoxicated, "with the sound of [his] kids crying in the background."

"Any deep-seated sliver of hope that I’d held onto, that we might still somehow pull it together for the kids, died right then," Federline wrote. "It wasn’t a one-time thing, either. It was all part of that reckless pattern."

After the book’s release, Federline confirmed that Spears' relationship with their sons hadn't improved as the boys had recently stopped wanting to spend time with her after a troubling visit that left them "terrified" and "worried."

"[Britney] saw one of my sons one day this year, and he decided not to go back over there because of what he saw," he claimed of his eldest, adding Jayden had also been visiting his mother recently. "He’s been over there quite a few times over the past year, and he’s stopped seeing her in the last few months because of the situation."

A rep for Spears clapped back at the alleged abuse allegations on October 14, stating: "With news from Kevin’s book breaking, once again he and others are profiting off her and sadly it comes after child support has ended with Kevin. All she cares about are her kids, Sean Preston and Jayden James, and their well-being during this sensationalism. She detailed her journey in her memoir."
