Britney Spears is alleged to have become so hysterical during Thursday's police stand-off that she threatened repeatedly to kill herself.
The pop star reportedly threatened to commit suicide in front of her two children during her three-hour stand-off with emergency services at her Beverly Hills, California, mansion, it has been revealed, after initially refusing to hand her sons back to ex-husband Kevin Federline.
After locking herself and one-year-old Jayden James in a bathroom, her court-appointed monitor called 911 after witnessing Spears' breakdown first hand. The daily Mirror newspaper reports how spears screamed at police to leave her home, or face the consequences of her actions.
According to an unnamed police officer, who was one fo the first to arrive on the scene, Spears said, "Get out of here. Leave me and my babies alone. Get out or I'm going to kill myself. I'll do it. I'll do it."
Spears then demanded to speak with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, but was refused by his lawyer Mark Kaplan. "Britney told Kaplan she wanted to 'sort this out with Kevin face-to-face'. Kaplan said 'no' and she started raising her voice and pacing up and down. She told him: 'Tell him to stop pushing me. Tell him to stop making me feel like I'm not part of my own family. He doesn't want to have to tell his children he killed their mother.'"
To top things off, the pop star even made a last-ditch attempt to get custody of the children by offering Federline a $100m pay-day, another source confirms.
"Britney said that Kevin could have an incredible $100 million if he'd give her the kids and never see them again. He's used to Britney going off on one, but he knew from her voice that this was a while other thing entirely. He hung up straight away and called his legal team in a panic.
"He told them that Britney was capable of anything and admitted that she still kept two handguns at the house... The lawyers called the police immediately."
