Kevin Federline Plans Memoir Addressing Fatherhood, Spears Relationship

Kevin Federline, Britney Spears' ex-husband, is set to release his memoir titled "You Thought You Knew" on October 21, after working on it for three to four years. The book aims to share his side of the story, particularly focusing on his role as a father to their two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden, countering the long-standing perception of him as a "deadbeat" dad. Federline also reflects on his relationship with Spears, detailing their initial romance, their tumultuous divorce, and the years of Britney's conservatorship under her father, which he once viewed as beneficial despite its flaws. The memoir seeks to clarify misconceptions about his life and decisions without attacking Spears, offering insight into his experiences with celebrity, fatherhood, and survival. Federline's goal is to present an unfiltered narrative directly from him, avoiding the distortions that can arise from interviews and documentaries. The book also touches on his efforts to maintain normalcy for his children and keep his other kids out of the spotlight.
