Washington, Feb 25 (ANI): Britney Spears' ex-hubby Kevin Federline is all praise for the troubled star's father Jamie for getting her life back on track.

Britney was recently granted permission to visit her sons on 23rd Feb in the presence of her father and a psychiatrist after she and Kevin reached an agreement on 22nd Feb.

The meeting was made possible after K-Fed's insistence that the boys should be re-united with their mother.

Eliot Mintz, the rapper's spokesman has now praised Jamie for providing his daughter some much-needed help.

"Jamie Spears went a long way in terms of stabilising an environment that surrounded Britney which was wildly in a flux. It's clear that Britney is in a different place now than she was two weeks ago," Contactmusic quoted him, as saying.

The 'Toxic' star was hospitalised under a mental health order this month and her father was subsequently given conservatorship of her estate. (ANI)
