A 26-year-old former marketing executive was arrested in India for k!lling his girlfriend's 7-year-old daughter because she was becoming a "disturbance" to his private time with her mother.

According to Times of India, the accused, Darshan Kumar Yadav, was arrested by police in Kumbalagudu, Bengaluru on Monday evening, October 27, 2025.

The victim is Siri S, a class 2 student at a govt school in Ramasandra village near Kengeri and daughter of Shilpa S K. 

The accused was absconding before his arrest near Tumakuru Road. 

According to police, Darshan, who earlier worked for a paints company, was in a relationship with Shilpa, a business development officer at a private firm. 

Shilpa, separated from her husband Balaji, lived with Siri and her foster mother. 

After the foster mother's d3ath in August, Darshan began pressuring Shilpa to admit Siri to a hostel, claiming she was interrupting their intimacy.  

When Shilpa refused, Darshan frequently fought with her, assaulted her, and even threatened to k!ll both mother and child.

Shilpa, hearing her daughter cry over the phone, rushed home around 6.30pm, only to be assaulted and locked in a room by Darshan. 

She managed to break free, only to discover Siri lying motionless in a pool of blood.

Investigations revealed Darshan had repeatedly slammed the child's head on the floor and then smothered her to d3ath.

According to Darshan's confession, he was married to Shilpa, but she claims to be his girlfriend in her complaint. 

Police said Darshan had a history of befriending multiple women on Instagram and getting involved in abusive relationships.

South Korea rolled out an extraordinary welcome for U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday, October 29, presenting him with the nation's highest decoration, the "Grand Order of Mugunghwa," and gifting him a replica gold crown.

The display of hospitality came as Trump arrived for the final leg of a high-profile tour through Asia, with crucial trade talks scheduled with President Lee Jae Myung and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

The honors began immediately upon arrival. U.S. and South Korean warplanes escorted Air Force One, and a military band greeted Trump on the tarmac with a rendition of "YMCA" alongside a gun salute.

The South Korean presidential office stated that Trump was awarded the Grand Order of Mugunghwa, named after the national flower (the Rose of Sharon), in recognition of his role as a "peacemaker" on the Korean peninsula.

Trump, who repeated his invitation on Wednesday, October 29 to meet North Korean leader Kim Jong Un again, was reportedly eager to accept the glittering award, stating, "I'd like to wear it right now."

A South Korean official confirmed he is the first U.S. president to receive the honor. President Lee further tailored the welcome to the American leader, wearing a custom gold-colored tie that his office said "reflects President Trump's taste for gold."

The leaders met in the historic city of Gyeongju, the ancient capital of the Silla kingdom. There, Trump was gifted a replica of the golden Cheonmachong crown, a symbol intended to represent a new era of peaceful coexistence and common growth between the two nations.

The diplomatic courtship extended to the working lunch, which featured several nods to the U.S. President's personal preferences. The menu included mini beef patties with ketchup and a "Korean Platter of Sincerity," along with grilled fish prepared with a glaze of ketchup and gochujang (red chilli paste).

Thousand Island salad dressing was included as a nod to Trump's "success story in his hometown of New York," and the meal concluded with a "Peacemaker's Dessert," a brownie adorned with gold. 

The day was set to wrap up with a dinner for the leaders of Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Thailand, and Singapore, where the wine list featured Trump Chardonnay and Trump Cabernet Sauvignon, from a winery run by Trump's son.

Trump's visit, which precedes the main Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) leaders' summit scheduled for Friday and Saturday, caused some logistical disruption. Diplomatic sources indicated that several leaders had to change their schedules to accommodate Trump’s early arrival and departure.

While the city of Gyeongju is not a typical venue for such large international events, South Korea's Foreign Ministry disputed reports of room shortages for staff, stating only about half of the available local accommodation was booked.

A father-to-be was k!lled with a single punch following a brawl outside an Arizona bar mere weeks before his baby was due.

Thomas John “TJ” Pizzitola was found lying unconscious on a sidewalk outside of a bar in Scottsdale around 2:15 a.m. on Oct. 11, the Scottsdale Police Department told The Post.

Pizzitola, 29, and two friends had been kicked out of Pattie’s First Avenue Lounge that night for being rowdy, and while outside, one of the father-to-be’s friends allegedly bumped into a woman, according to court records obtained by Fox10.

The bump sparked an argument that escalated into a fight between the group and five suspects, prosecutors said.

In the melee, 24-year-old Drew Meneses allegedly threw a punch that caused Pizzitola to suffer a fatal brain injury, cops said.

“TJ was hit in the head and fell immediately to the ground,” police said in a statement.

Pizzitola was rushed to the hospital, but ultimately succumbed to his injuries, authorities said.

The five suspects, Julia Husser, 27; Krista Molina, 27; Tony Becker, 26; Mark Whitford, 23; and Meneses were arrested last Wednesday in connection with the deadly bar fight, police confirmed.

Meneses faces second-degree murder charges, while the rest of the crew was booked on varying assault charges, court records showed.

A GoFundMe for Pizzitola said he was expecting a child with his wife, Krisan, in a few weeks when the fatal sucker punch occurred.

Just before he was k!lled, Pizzitola messaged Krisan to tell her he was proud of her, the local outlet reported.

“I texted him that I had gotten home, and he texted me back and said that he wished that I was there … but that he was so proud of me for staying home and taking care of our baby boy and that he loved me,” Krisan told the outlet.

“About 3:30, I saw that his location changed to the emergency room and dropped everything and ran down there in my pajamas,” the grieving widow recalled.

“All he ever wanted to be was the best father ever and the best husband,” Krisan said. “But he wasn’t finished.”

Pizzitola was also able to save five people’s lives through organ donation after the shocking incident, his family recalled.

Meneses told the court at a hearing that he was simply having a “bad night” when he allegedly threw the fatal blow.
“I just, it was a bad night. It was not supposed to happen like that at all, and there was no malicious intent for that at all,” he said.

He is being held on $1 million bail, the outlet reported.

A woman who faked that she had a baby to her family and friends has now reportedly fled her home and gone into hiding. 

Kira Cousins from Airdrie in Scotland has been bombarded by hateful messages online after she deceived her loved-ones into believing a plastic doll was her newborn baby. 

She had spent months wearing a fake bump to give the impression she was pregnant before she pretended to give birth alone. 

The 22-year-old was eventually exposed after family members discovered her tiny daughter, named Bonnie-Leigh Joyce, was in fact a realistic Reborn doll, when Kira's mum found it in her bedroom. 

People close to Kira had spent heavily on gifts for the baby and many were left angered. To escape the anger of her loved ones, she has now left the house she shares with her mum in Airdrie, Lanarkshire. 

“We haven’t seen her in days. Everyone is just wanting questions answered, as to why she would do such a thing," a former friend told The Sun. “She obviously needs serious help. Her mother was heartbroken and I don’t think they’re speaking. She is an only child, so this was the first ‘grandchild’. It’s just a very sad situation and people are worried about her.” 

Kira posted images of baby scans and videos of her lavish gender reveal party in the leadup to the “birth” on October 10. She claimed to have given birth to her "daughter", weighing 5lbs 4oz. 

In the weeks before, Kira uploaded what is believed to be AI-generated footage of the "baby" kicking in her tummy and a series of pictures of newborn clothes and items loved ones bought, including a £1,000 pram and a car seat. She also described hospital visits, even claiming that ante-natal tests had picked up a heart defect in her baby. 

Kira eventually shared a post saying: "I wasn't pregnant. There was no baby. I made it up and kept it going way too far. I faked scans, messages, a whole birth story, and acted like a doll was a real baby. 

"I know how bad it is, I f****d up. I just didn't know how to stop once I started. I don't have a proper excuse. I wasn't in a good headspace, but that doesn't make what I did okay. I know this is gonna stick with me for a long time and that I've probably lost friends I'll never get back. 

"I'm trying to figure myself out and get help because this version of me isn't someone I want to be. I know I've ruined a lot of trust and that "sorry" won't fix everything but it's all I can say right now." 

Kira went on to apologise to all of her loved-ones who she lied to. She continued: "I'm so sorry. You were there for me through it all. You cried happy tears, picked me up, brought me places, believed everything I said. 

"You didn't deserve to be lied to like that. None of you did. Everyone who came to the gender reveal, all the people who gave me gifts or support - I f****d up and I hurt a lot of people. And to everyone I made look bad along the way - the dad and his family especially - I'm sorry. I made you out to be horrible people when really, I was the one in the wrong. Completely." 

Pal Neave McRobert noted that those closest to Kira first became suspicious after no one had heard the "baby" cry in a video filmed on October 16. She also told of how Kira refused to let anyone touch her as she claimed Bonnie-Leigh had recently visited Wishaw General Hospital for checks due to ill-health. 

Neave said: "I noticed Kira had deleted every picture and video of Bonnie-Leigh from our chats. I asked her why and she ignored me. I then asked the baby's dad 'Is this a doll?' and he said, 'Yes, it’s a doll.' She even went to the extreme of texting him saying, 'Bonnie-Leigh di£d'. 

"I can’t imagine how he must feel right now and everyone else who has been lied to for months and months. Everybody believed her. She had a gender reveal, she posted scan photos and even said the baby had a hole in its heart. Then she texted me saying the baby was born. We were all so happy.” 

Screenshots of Neave's conversations with Kira about Bonnie-Leigh were shared online, alongside others showing the doll in a series of now-deleted posts from the "new mum". Neave also spoke about how she met "baby" Bonnie-Leigh when she took her former friend and the doll to a supermarket. 

She continued: “I feel worse because I’m one of the few people to meet this 'baby'. I feel totally used and drained. Everyone got conned by her.”

An “aggressive” monkey infected with COVID and multiple s£xually transmitted diseases is reportedly running loose through Mississippi in the US after a truck overturned on an Interstate and released a pack of the diseased lab primates.

The truck carrying the cartload of rhesus monkeys from a research center affiliated with Tulane University careened into a ditch north of Heidelberg Tuesday afternoon, according to the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department.

The 40-pound monkeys carry COVID, hepatitis C, and herpes and are “aggressive to humans,” the department warned. Humans should not handle the animals without PPE, it added.

The truck itself was wrecked, leaving a hole just large enough for the primates whose cages were broken during the crash to escape into the Mississippi valleys, according to a photo shared by the sheriff’s department.

It’s unclear how many monkeys were packed into the truck, but all those who escaped were quickly seized and euthanized, except for one still on the lam.

The department advised anyone who sees the fugitive monkey to call 911 and stay as far away from it as possible.

However, Tulane University refuted the sheriff’s department’s report that the animals were infectious.
“Non-human primates at the Tulane National Biomedical Research Center are provided to other research organizations to advance scientific discovery. The primates in question belong to another entity and are not infectious. We are actively collaborating with local authorities and will send a team of animal care experts to assist as needed,” the university said in a statement.

The sheriff’s office was still scouring the area for the loose monkey with assistance from the Mississippi Wildlife and Fisheries and an “animal disposal company” as of 2 p.m. Tuesday, according to its post on Facebook.

Singer Sia's estranged husband is requesting full custody of their child, whom they welcomed in March 2024. 

On Monday, Oct. 27, Dan Bernad filed for sole custody of his and Sia's child, Somersault Wonder Bernad, 19 months, who they refer to in the court documents as "Summi." 

In the documents, Bernad alleged in the documents that the 49-year-old singer is "an unfit and unreliable parent struggling with substance abuse and addiction." 

In Sia's response, filed on Tuesday, Oct. 28, she claimed she's been sober for six months. 

"I have been fully sober for over six months and working my program which includes weekly testing and a sober companion," the filing read. 

"My recovery has been a cornerstone of my life and one of the primary reasons I chose to separate from Dan, whose ongoing engagement in a nightlife and recreational drug-use lifestyle is incompatible with a healthy environment for our child." 

Elsewhere in the court documents, Bernad alleged that the musician did not take a "primary caregiving role" with their son, adding that she "delegated nearly all child-rearing responsibilities to a revolving team of nannies while she maintained control from a distance." 

"This dynamic in Sia's house and the control she exerted put Summi at the center of a one-sided and highly managed environment," Bernad claimed. "To my knowledge, this has not changed since I moved out of the house. In fact, Sia's nannies have handled every single custodial exchange since the start of the divorce." 

Bernad alleged that there were always a lot of people in the house, including staff members and collaborators, and friends of Sia, who were "competing for time with Summi, and, consequently, infringing on my time with our son." 

In response to his claims, Sia alleged that her son "has always been in my primary care and custody," adding that Bernad has never "had custody of Summi for more than two hours at a time and [was] always monitored" from the onset of a criminal investigation for possessing child pornography by the LAPD and the Department of Child and Family Services. 

While she acknowledged that she understands that the investigations have been inconclusive and closed, she stated that it "does not appease my concerns of Summi spending unsupervised time with Dan." 

"Furthermore, given Dan’s lack of prior experience and time with Summi and Summi’s very young age at 1.5 years old, it is not in Summi’s best interest to have any custody arrangement other than a gradual step-up in time with an experienced childcare provider present," Sia claimed. 

Bernad denied "any involvement with this alleged contraband." The investigation centered around a hard drive containing inappropriate images, which Bernad claimed that Sia "planted" to restrict his time with their son. He claimed that he "never even visited the storage unit" where Sia's assistant and friend Hayley found the hard drive, alledging that Sia and her employees acquired it. 

In addition to sole custody, Bernad is requesting Sia to submit to regular drug testing, enroll and participate in co-parenting classes for six months and have monitored visitation three times per week for two hours. 

Bernad, who claimed that he is currently unemployed and doesn't have an income, is also asking for $77,245 per month in child support and for her to be fiscally responsible for all uninsured medical expenses, extracurricular activities, tuition and childcare costs. 

"As of 4/1/25, I have been unemployed and have no source of income because Sia ceased all funding of our joint venture, Modem Medicine, including my salary," Bernad wrote in the documents. "I am totally financially dependent on Sia." 

The singer — who adopted two 18-year-old boys in 2019 — claimed in her filing that she believes Bernad is financially motivated, and that she has already paid him $300,000 since they split in March. 

“To date, every request by Dan for additional custodial time has been directly tied to financial gain rather than a genuine effort to foster a meaningful parental relationship with Summi,” she wrote. 

Earlier this month, Bernad filed a petition in court requesting $250,856 per month in spousal support, plus $300,000 for legal fees and $200,000 for forensic accounting fees.

Syria’s interior ministry has announced that security forces have seized about 11 million Captagon stimulant pills smuggled into the country from neighboring Lebanon, one of the largest drug busts since the fall of former ruler Bashar al-Assad.

In a statement, the ministry said that “the anti-narcotics branch in Homs province seized a vehicle coming from Lebanon containing approximately 11 million captagon pills.” Authorities said investigations were ongoing to identify those involved and to uncover the criminal networks linked to the operation.

Captagon, a highly addictive amphetamine-type stimulant, became Syria’s most lucrative export during the civil war that began in 2011, serving as a key funding source for Assad’s government. Since his ouster in December, the country’s new authorities have reported several major seizures of the drug, though neighboring states continue to intercept large shipments originating from Syria and Lebanon.

In Lebanon, Hezbollah, a close ally of the former Syrian regime, has also faced accusations of using the captagon trade to finance its operations. In September, the Lebanese military seized 64 million pills in eastern Lebanon, marking one of its largest operations against the illicit trade.

The synthetic drug continues to flood the region, prompting calls from neighboring countries for Syria and Lebanon to intensify efforts to dismantle the networks behind its production and smuggling.

Crowds gathered outside the trial of an Algerian woman charged with the r@pe, torture, and murder of a 12-year-old girl, demanding that she be sentenced to de@th.

Dahbia Benkired, 27, an Algerian migrant living in France, is currently facing the rare sentence of life imprisonment after allegedly luring schoolgirl Lola Daviet into her apartment on October 14, 2022, before s£xually ass@ulting and killing her. 

The verdict is expected to be delivered this afternoon.

Before the final hearing of the six-day trial began on Friday morning, dozens of people congregated in front of the courthouse, holding placards with slogans reading: 'The de@th penalty saves lives,' and 'Let's hang Dahbia, let's save Lolas'. 

Benkired, who had been homeless and reportedly earning money as a pr0stitute at the time, is accused of forcing the child to perform a s£x act on the her 'for her pleasure' before partially severing Lola's head and stuffing her body into a suitcase.

Speaking in court on Wednesday, Benkired gave a chilling recount of how the fateful day unfolded, revealing that Lola had even begged not to be hurt by the woman before being led into her apartment.

According to the accused, Benkired had fallen into an argument with 'the love of her life' ex-partner Mustapha M. 'I said to myself in my head I'm going to hurt someone,' she recalled.

The alleged killer told the court how she had even planned to sho0t Mustapha using his own gun she claims he had in his home.

'I wanted to hurt him, but not little Lola. He hurt me so much that I wanted revenge, I hated him,' she said. 'I love him very much, but I wanted to hurt him. He had a gun at home, I was planning to shoot him, but not to kill him'.

But just 15 minutes after the pair had fought, seething with rage, she crossed paths with Lola as she was returning home from school.

'I passed a woman with her baby. And then Lola. I asked her to open the door for me because I didn't have a badge,' Benkired told the court. 

Lola then allegedly helped the woman take her suitcases up to her apartment, as Benkired admitted she already knew in that moment she was planning to hurt her.

She pulled on Lola's arm to get her into the elevator up to her apartment as she begged: 'Madam, please don't hurt me.' Benkired chillingly said she told the child 'don't worry, I won't hurt you,' in response.

Once Lola was in Benkired's home, the accused woman told the court she asked her to undress and take a shower, admitting that Lola appeared 'scared' during this time.

Benkired went on to explain how she s£xually assaulted her and 'slammed her head against the shower wall with my hand,' insisting it was 'really not hard'.

'In the shower, for me, she turned into a ghost. She said nothing, she didn't talk,' Benkired recalled. 'I was told that when I taped her up, she was still alive. For me, she was de@d'.

After several minutes of slow agony, the child d!ed of suffocation from the tape. Her body also showed signs of knife mutilation. 

'There are a multitude of wounds on Lola's body, at least 38. At least two blows with scissors perforated the rib cage, causing unimaginable suffering,' the Attorney General said on Friday. 

'Her (Benkired's) goal was to inflict acute physical and mental pain on her victim, denying all human dignity. This is the very definition of acts of torture and barbarity'. 

During Monday's hearing, several family members were forced to leave the court as images of Lola's injuries were shown, while other shocking details came to light, including that she had 'visible traumatic injuries' on her genitals. 

The 12-year-old girl was 'vaginally and anally penetrated' while she was still alive, according to the medical examiner's examinations. 

But throughout her trial, Benkired admitted to forcing oral sex on Lola but continues denied any act of penetration, despite forensic findings.

After forcing Lola to perform s£x acts on her, the accused said she then 'started to slap her' because she was 'afraid she would tell her family. All the hatred I had inside me, I took it out on her... Either way, I knew she was going to die'.

'It's not that I wanted to kill her, but that I wanted to hurt someone. But since I had raped her, I might as well kill her,' Benkired said.

The schoolgirl suffered 38 stab and scissor wounds on her back and neck before dying from asphyxia, a doctor told the Assize Court in Paris on Monday.  

'There was hemorrhagic trauma to various parts of the body,' particularly to the child's private parts, the doctor said.

Lola also had a 'large wound' on her face, a severed neck and a slashed back, likely caused by knives, while her 'head was partially severed'.

'There is physical, psychological and moral suffering', the doctor added , as images of Lola's injuries were shown to the court on day two of Benkired's trial.

'Asphyxia is very anxiety-provoking, it goes beyond physical pain. There were probably one or more impacts to the head, which creates physical pain.' 

But on Wednesday, Benkired claimed she had brutally stabbed the girl after she 'began to see her as a sheep'.

'The skin was hard, like a sheep's,' explained the accused, who added that it was at this point that she wrote the numbers 0 and 1 on Lola's feet. 

According to respected French newspaper Le Monde, Benkired allegedly told investigators that she saw a 'ghost' in Lola and acted out of 'fear' of this 'devil incarnate.' The probe showed she had conducted searches online into witchcraft days before the murd£r.

On Wednesday, Nicolas Estano, 47, a clinical psychologist and expert witness, told the court that even though 'sexual sadism is something quite rare,' he believes Benkired's actions expose 'an almost s£xual pleasure in the abuse inflicted on someone'. 

Following the alleged murder, Benkired bound the child's legs, feet, wrists, and face in scotch tape, before stuffing her body into a plastic suitcase. 

Benkired then allegedly dragged her body around Paris in the plastic trunk, before dumping it on the street where it was found by a homeless man. 

Police in Spain have reportedly arrested two people, including Real Madrid legend Iker Casillas’ housekeeper, on suspicion of stealing five designer watches worth £175,000 from his Madrid home.

The unnamed woman is said to have tried to dupe the former Spain goalkeeper by substituting original timepieces for cheap imitations.

According to the Spanish press, the other person police have held works as a security guard at the upmarket estate where the 44-year-old lives.

Casillas reportedly called in police after discovering the ruse before police set a trap for the suspect and arrested her after she fell for it.

Respected Telecinco TV show El Programa de Ana Rosa said on Friday: 'Police have already handed the suspects over to the courts. They wanted the watches to sell them for parts.

'Iker is shocked by the great trust he had in those two people who worked in his home.'

Pozuelo IN, who cover the upmarket municipality of Pozuelo de Alarcon where Casillas lives, said: 'The arrested individuals, who have already been brought before the courts in Pozuelo, devised a plan to steal the watches without arousing suspicion.

'They replaced the originals with cheap imitations. Among the stolen items are several gold Rolex watches valued at more than €50,000 (around £43,500) each, although investigators do not rule out that the total value of the stolen goods may be much higher.

'The couple did not sell the watches as they were, but dismantled them to sell the parts separately, which made them difficult to trace.

'It was Casillas himself who, after noticing irregularities in some of his watches, one of his great hobbies, alerted the police and triggered an investigation that has culminated in the arrests.'

It added: 'Casillas kept his collection in different rooms of his home, without a detailed inventory.

'His love of luxury watches is well known, and he has even collaborated on campaigns for specialist brands. Upon discovering the counterfeits, the former goalkeeper filed a complaint, and the police began discreetly monitoring his home environment.

'Suspicions soon fell on the employee, who knew exactly where the collection was located and how many items it contained.

'In a controlled operation, the officers prepared a trap that allowed them to confirm their suspicions.

'At the couple's home, investigators found fragments of dismantled watches and parts matching models in Casillas' collection.'

Police are understood to have taken statements from Casillas as well as his journalist ex-wife Sara Carbonero as part of their investigation.

The Spanish goalkeeper, who is widely regarded as one of the best goalkeepers in footballing history, made 510 appearances during his 16 years with Real Madrid before signing for Porto.

He announced his retirement from professional football in August 2020 following a heart attack in May 2019 while training with Porto.

Britney Spears’ ex-husband, Kevin Federline, has alleged that their two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, have once again stopped speaking to the pop star after witnessing disturbing things while visiting her home.

Federline, 47, made the claims during an appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, saying the boys were “terrified” and that one of them even told him, “Mom is going to die.”

“[Britney] saw one of my sons one day this year, and he decided not to go back over there because of what he saw,” Federline said, referring to 20-year-old Sean Preston.

He added that 19-year-old Jayden also stopped visiting her a few months ago, saying, “That’s not my story to tell — it’s my sons’. But the things they’ve seen are shocking.”

The revelation comes shortly after troubling footage showed the singer looking unsteady at a restaurant and swerving into the wrong lane on a highway, amid reports that Federline’s new memoir, You Thought You Knew, has sent her into a “tailspin.”

Federline told Piers Morgan that his sons were worried for their mother’s life, adding, “One of my sons called me and said, ‘I don’t know what to do. I’m afraid Mom is going to die.’”

When asked if substance abuse was part of their concern, he replied, “Absolutely.”

Federline insisted that he isn’t trying to bring Britney down, saying he wants her to rebuild her relationship with their sons: “This isn’t about attacking her. This is about telling the truth and trying to build her back up.”

The pair, who were married from 2004 to 2007, share joint custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James. Following their split and Britney’s 13-year conservatorship, Federline took primary custody and later moved the boys to Hawaii.

In his memoir, Federline alleged that Britney once punched their son, knowingly gave Jayden shellfish despite his allergy, and even watched her children sleep while holding a knife. He also accused her of using cocaine while breastfeeding.

Britney’s representatives have denied the allegations, describing them as attempts to “profit off her.”

A spokesperson for the 43-year-old singer told Daily Mail: “With Kevin’s book out, once again he and others are profiting off her now that child support has ended. All she cares about are her kids and their well-being.”

Britney herself responded online, accusing Federline of “gaslighting” her and writing, “I 100 percent beg to differ.”

In a follow-up post on X (formerly Twitter), she wrote: “Why is HE so angry? The boy hates me, and it is deep anger to literally say the things he is saying.”
