Britney Spears continued to bond with her youngest son Jayden James Federline, following a two-year estrangement, on Father's Day in a snap where his 6ft3in frame towered over her 5ft4in frame.
The 43-year-old Grammy winner was so thrilled to finally reconnect with the 18-year-old high school grad, she bought him a brand new Mercedes AMG SL 63 roadster valued at $187K.
'He is [6ft3in] and his hands are so big now!' Britney - who boasts 148.4M social media followers - gushed on June 8.
'How long am I going to be in shock? It's so incredibly crazy, it's not even funny! I'm blessed! Just please be careful with my heart too!'
Worryingly, Jayden never let go of his iPhone while driving the silver sportscar and glanced down at the screen at least twice during her video despite California 's hands-free driving laws.
Federline is said to be pursuing a career in music production, and her team is concerned he may be taking advantage of Spears and her industry connections.
'Everybody is wary that he is using her for financial gains and for his career,' a source exclusively told the Daily Mail last Wednesday.
'The fear is this could hurt her and be the last straw for her.'
Coincidentally, Jayden got back in touch with the semi-retired pop star last November - the same month she made her final $20K child support payment to second ex-husband Kevin Federline.
Meanwhile, Britney and the 47-year-old former back-up dancer's 19-year-old son Sean Preston Federline remains 'guarded' after her 'favorite' son Jayden confessed to the Daily Mail in 2022 that she 'struggled giving us both attention and showing us equal love.'
'We've both been through so much pressure in the past that this is our safe place now, to process all the emotional trauma we've been through to heal, heal our mental state,' Federline explained.
Spears - whose 13-year conservatorship finally ended in 2021 - divorced Kevin in 2007 after only two years of wedded bliss, and he amassed $5M in support payments during the 17 years he had primary custody of their children.
In 2022, Federline posted surreptitiously-filmed footage of the Balenciaga collaborator scolding their kids at age 11 and 12 without her consent, and he later admitted it's 'tough' for teenagers to see her posting nearly nude dance videos on Instagram.
Britney will soon release her first-ever jewelry brand, B. Tiny, featuring 'delicate, extremely different, and one-of-a-kind pieces.'
Spears is also said to be very hands on with her fully-authorized biopic for Universal Pictures, which is still in the developmental stage.

On March 23, director Jon M. Chu shut down speculation over whether Ariana Grande, Sabrina Carpenter, Millie Bobby Brown, Emma Roberts, Sydney Sweeney, Addison Rae, Florence Pugh, Tate McRae, or Olivia Holt were in contention to play the Hold Me Closer hitmaker.
'None of this is true,' the 45-year-old Wicked filmmaker tweeted.
'Sounds exciting but have not had one conversation about casting this movie yet. We are way too early in development. Sorry.'
On August 1, Universal 'paid in the low eight figures' for the rights to Britney's NY Times-bestselling 2023 memoir The Woman In Me and music catalogue in the movie from producer Marc Platt.
Simon & Schuster originally paid Spears a $12.5M advance (25% of the net profits) to pen the critically-acclaimed tell-all with three alleged ghostwriters - Ada Calhoun, Sam Lansky, and Luke Dempsey.
