Britney Spears is celebrating her 43rd birthday in style with an international getaway!
On Monday, December 2, the global pop sensation decided to mark her special day with a vacation, setting her sights on a sunny retreat in Mexico.
“Britney decided to treat herself to a fun birthday vacation. She loves Mexico and is excited to enjoy some time in the sun,” a source told Richreport.
Earlier that day, Spears shared a glimpse of the start of her birthday celebration, posting a picture with “red lips and delicious wine” before dinner. A few hours later, she took to Instagram again, showing off a “very cute baby, baby cake,” topped with fresh strawberries and encased in a delicate chocolate lattice.
Spears has spent birthdays in Mexico before. Back in 2021, she celebrated her 40th birthday in Cabo San Lucas with her then-fiancé, Sam Asghari. She shared her gratitude with fans on social media, posting, “I’m so blessed and grateful!!!! Tears of joy today.” She added a crying emoji and thanked everyone for the birthday wishes, including, “Psss I didn’t even drink the champagne 🥂 no lie!!!!”
This year, however, the singer’s birthday marked another milestone. On Monday, she was officially declared legally single, seven months after her divorce was finalized in Los Angeles on May 2, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.
In addition to her birthday getaway, Spears has also been reconnecting with her family. In November, the “Overprotected” singer reunited with her youngest son, Jayden, who is now 18. Jayden is one of the two sons she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline; their other son, Sean Preston, is 19.
“Spending time together has made her really happy,” a source told PEOPLE about Spears’ bonding time with Jayden at her Los Angeles home. It seems that this year’s birthday celebration is not only a moment for Spears to relax and enjoy but also a time for family reflection and connection.
