Britney SpearsBritney Spears has apparently temporarily left the Malibu home she shares with Kevin Federline so he can entertain the children from his previous relationship there without her - and so that she can have some time to think about the state of their marriage.

Britney is reportedly staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel while Kevin spends time with daughter Kori and son Kaleb from his relationship with Shar Jackson.

A source close to Britney revealed: “Things are far from rosy. They’re trying to make it work but there are still issues that need addressing.”

“Britney’s got to be calm for the birth of her second child, so she’s taking time out from their problems and giving herself some space.”
