Britney Spears and Kevin FederlineBritney Spears‘ planned press conference yesterday turned out to be a hoax - but one that only got the rumour mill working harder.

The baby rumours are gathering speed - it’s apparently a girl, due in August and she’s delighted because she wants a daughter but now there is also a story that she is planning to renew her wedding vows to husband Kevin Federline.

It was, apparently, Kevin’s idea: he got down on one knee, promised to stop letting her down then, ever the romancer, proposed the renewal by saying “Let’s f***ing do it again!”.

A friend of the couple told Heat magazine: “Kevin has pledged his eternal love to Britney and swears he is going to stop acting like a jerk to her.”

“Britney is jumping for joy. This is all she’s every wanted to hear.”
