Spears to go to counselling with K-Fed

Britney Spears has been told that she must attend counselling sessions with her ex-husband Kevin Federline as part of their ongoing custody battle.

Spears was ordered to hand over two-year-old Sean Preston and one-year-old Jayden James to Federline earlier this week. She had failed to produce a valid California driver's licence and to make herself available for random alcohol and drugs tests.

A document released yesterday read: "A missed (drug) test, refusal to submit to a test, or failure to respond to the testing agency's call shall be deemed by the court as a failed test."

The 'Toxic' singer has been granted monitored visits to see her sons, but it has now been revealed that she must attend three counselling sessions with Federline before the next hearing in the pair's ongoing custody battle on October 26.
