Britney Spears has reignited her romance with former criminal Paul Soliz just seven moths after the pop star split from the ex-felon ‘over fears he was using her for clout.’ 

The Baby One More Time singer, 43 – who recently showed off her curves in a bizarre dance clip – was spotted with Soliz, 37, earlier this week on Tuesday as she joined him and two of his kids at Lily Pad Playground in the San Fernando Valley, per TMZ. 

Late last year in October, Paul’s wife of eight years Nicole Mancilla filed for divorce after he was previously called a ‘ᴅᴇᴀᴅbeat dad’ of his nine children. 

Spears notably separated from ex-husband Sam Asghari in 2023 and the pair reached a settlement in their divorce in May 2024. Later that same year in December, the former couple were declared legally single. 

In a pH๏τo obtained by TMZ, Britney could be seen sitting in the pᴀssenger seat of a black Mercedes G-Wagon outside of the indoor playground. 

According to insiders, the luxurious SUV is the same vehicle that the songstress bought for Paul after dating for only one month.

The Baby One More Time singer was spotted with Soliz earlier this week on Tuesday as she joined him and two of his kids at Lily Pad Playground in the San Fernando Valley, per TMZ; Soliz seen in 2023 in L.A. 

While Britney mainly kept to herself during the excursion, sources said that Spears had told others, ‘These aren’t my kids.’ 

Following the outing at the indoor playground, the Toxic hitmaker reportedly paid the bill before the group headed to their next destination. 

Spears has been spotted with some of Paul’s children in the past and in August 2024, she enjoyed time at Sky Zone in Thousand Oaks. 

At the time, the performer was seen jumping at the trampoline park with three of his kids for around 30 minutes before leaving. 

Back in July of last year, a source informed TMZ that Spears and Soliz had broken up and stated, ‘Britney and Paul split around three weeks ago.’ 

‘And they were done once the singer realized her former maintenance worker-turned-boyfriend was only using her for the luxurious lifestyle.’ 

The star had made the decision to split with the ex-felon after seeing his ‘true colors’ and also removed his name from the entry list to her lavish mansion. 

Another reason behind the breakup was due to Britney’s own children: sons Preston, 19, and Jayden, 18 – whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

A separate insider told DailyMail.com, ‘She chose her children and her well-being over Paul. They did not get along and, in fact, he did not treat her how she deserves to be treated.’

‘He was nothing but a rebound and she recognizes this. But she has contact with her children again and this is what is most important to her.’

The source added, ‘This has made her feel whole again and she realized that in their absence she was seeking something or someone to fill the void but no one can.’

‘She also saw how Paul was a ᴅᴇᴀᴅbeat dad and this was a major turnoff for her. But, before anything, she knew that staying with him would only lead her down a dark path. His history speaks for itself.’ 

However, a few weeks later, Spears and Soliz sparked concerns that they were back together when they dined at Soho House in Malibu. 

And in May of last year, Paul’s ex Nicole Mancilla claimed that he fails to support any of his nine kids. 

She further alleged that he cheated on her with Britney and is being chased for child support by Nicole as well as the Los Angeles Department for Child Support Services (DCSS). 

His ex told DailyMail.com: ‘Just let them know that my husband fell in Britney Spears’ p****. He was married, and now he denies his children. He neglects his children for her.’

A separate insider told DailyMail.com , ‘She chose her children and her well-being over Paul. They did not get along and, in fact, he did not treat her how she deserves to be treated’

‘He’s the EBT Nick Cannon,’ she continued, adding that at the time he was residing with Britney but listed his official address at a nearby residence. 

‘He’s on probation, so if he officially lives at her house, they have access to searching her house. So that’s why he still has an address here,’ Mancilla alleged. 

Nicole’s mother Sandra Smith called Soliz a ‘ᴅᴇᴀᴅbeat dad’ and claimed he ‘doesn’t support any’ of his kids. 

And in October 2024, Nicole officially filed for divorce from Paul and cited ‘irreconcilable differences,’ per TMZ.   

Back in May of last year, Spears notably sparked mental health concerns when she was pictured barefoot outside of the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood following an alleged fight with Paul. 

At the time, the pair were spotted at the iconic H๏τel as the pop star was escorted towards emergency services. 

Sources told Us Weekly that close friends of Britney are ‘wary of Paul’s intentions’ while one insider added, ‘They don’t think he’s a good fit for her.’

Another shared, ‘They have tried for months to tell her to stop ᴀssociating with him, but the more they tell her to stay away, it has the reverse effect. She isn’t listening to them.’

During a recent interview on the Sibling Rivalry podcast, Sam admitted that he was ‘not sad’ their marriage came to an end; seen in 2019 in Hollywood 

Her on-and-off romance with the ex-felon comes after her divorce from Sam Asghari. 

The pair had tied the knot in 2022, but after only 14 months of marriage he filed for divorce – and they reached a settlement in May 2024. 

Asghari has since moved on following the separation and is now dating Brooke Irvine. 

During a recent interview on the Sibling Rivalry podcast, Sam admitted that he was ‘not sad’ their marriage came to an end. 

‘Divorce and break-ups suck for anybody but I always had the mindset of “I’m not sad it’s over.” I’m grateful and happy that it happened.’

‘Divorce and break-ups suck for anybody but I always had the mindset of “I’m not sad it’s over.” I’m grateful and happy that it happened,’ the actor added 

He added, ‘It was a very difficult time, we were in a relationship for seven years and there was so much we went through as a couple and it was a beautiful experience. You have to just appreciate that it ever happened than to dwell and be sad.’

He later reflected on her conservatorship which came to an end in 2021 and said, ‘That was the most difficult and weird spiral thing that I’ve witnessed in my life.’ 

However, Asghari explained he did his best to offer support to the pop star. ‘I think the best thing to do is to provide support in that moment and that’s what I did, I provided as much as I could.’ 

‘This was my experience in life that I had to go through very gently because if you do anything wrong, you say the wrong thing…’
