Britney Spears gets the fright of her life as sons prank her – WATCH

Following the release of her most critically-acclaimed album in a decade, Britney Spears is set to play her first UK show in five years at London’s Apple Music Festival next week (September 27) – if her kids don’t give her a heart attack first, that is.

Brit might be one of the most famous people in the world, but Britney has proved that being the Princess of Pop doesn’t give you a get out of jail free card when it comes to troublesome children after sharing a video of her two sons, 11-year-old Sean Preston, and 10-year-old Jayden James, playing a prank on her at home this week.

In a video posted to Twitter, Sean can be seen lying in wait around a corner, as Jaden films proceedings on his superstar mother’s phone.

“We’re about to scare the heck out of mom,” Sean Preston tells the camera. “We just stole her phone and she’s going to go nuts.”

And go nuts she does. After getting the fright of her life and falling to the floor, a shocked Britney shouts “Preston!” as the camera cuts out.

The ‘Make Me’ singer clearly saw the funny side, however, sharing the video to twitter later, alongside the caption ‘My damn kids’
