A spokesman for Britney Spears and Kevin Federline has said that the couple are not under investigation following a visit by child protection officers to their home.
The reason for the visit seems to relate to an incident in which Spears' son, Sean Preston, fell from his high chair whilst in the care of a nanny, at the star's Malibu home. The singer apparently became concerned that the child had sustained a head injury when she noticed that he seemed ill and sleepy, and took him to hospital. It's thought that he had indeed suffered a trauma to the head, but is now back at home with his parents.
The subsequent visit by authorities is a normal procedure when a child is admitted to hospital. Spokesman Marty Singer explained that "they determined that the parents were not involved in any injury and nothing improper was done in the home," adding that the Department of Children and Family Services have concluded that there was "no problem".
Debra Glafkides of the sheriff's department confirmed: "It's a very standard, routine patrol request. We just roll out with them. We stood by, we took no action, no report or anything."
