“All of his friends are still in California and he wanted to come back after graduating high school. Jayden reached out to Britney and initiated the conversation.

He said in a 2022 interview: “I think Mom has struggled giving us both attention and showing us equal love and I don’t think she showed enough to Preston and I feel really bad for that.
