Well-Fed: Britney's ex Kevin Federline piles on the pounds
Last updated at 12:13pm on 05.03.08Britney Spears' former husband Kevin Federline headed out for a round of golf in LA over the weekend, and by the look of his expanding girth, he certainly needed the exercise.
The hefty 29-year-old looked almost unrecognisable as he made his way around the course in long shorts and a stripped yellow T-shirt that hugged a little too snugly around his bulging stomach.
It was a far cry from the toned and lean physique he'd acquired as a back-up dancer during his early romance with Britney.

Federline, who is preparing to ring in his 30th birthday with a party at Las Vegas nightclub Pure, has been locked in an ongoing custody battle with the troubled pop star over their children Preston, 2, and Jayden, 17 months.
Lawyers for both parties reached a new visitation agreement on February 22 and Britney has had three visits with her children since then.

Hefty: the father of two took time out from his parenting duties for a spot of much needed exercise
Federline's spokesman, Eliot Mintz, has credited Jamie Spears with getting his daughter the help she needed.
He says: "Jamie Spears went a long way in terms of stabilising an environment that surrounded Britney which was wildly in a flux. It's clear that Britney is in a different place now than she was two weeks ago."
Britney was sectioned under a mental health order last month and her father was later awarded conservatorship over her estate.

No he does not have to work. He is a leach and is living off of Britney.

Oh please. Like Kevin looks any chubbier than 80% of the males in the 30-55 crowd in this country. I would challenge anyone with greater than 10% BMI to look slim while striking that same pose in golf; watch the golf channel, and you'll see what I mean. In the second picture, he looks like a typical U.S. male. Good for him! To those of you who think he's too fat, just don't look at him, you skinny-obsessed freaks.
