Kevin Federline says Britney Spears marriage was "overwhelming"

Former backing dancer Kevin Federline has opened up about his brief marriage to and subsequent divorce from Britney Spears.

The pair split in 2007 after a whirlwind three years with the pop superstar and he told VLAD TV that being in a relationship with Spears was "overwhelming":

"That was a whole different lifestyle than I ever imagined. I mean, just getting around from place to place and having 20 people follow you all day long -- your whole life kind of being told through somebody else's eyes. Everybody wants to put their own spin on it." Federline added: "We like, were caught right in the midst of that whole thing. It was so crazy. I look back at it and it's like, at times it was so overwhelming."

"That time of my life, there's so many different, like, pieces missing because of everything that was going on. That was at the, like, height of everything and you're thrown into this thing and you're thrown into that thing and the in-between stuff. I know it happened. I know why it happened. That's pretty much all that I'm going to say."
