PapaZao Gets Sole Custody of Brit Kids





That settles it. Kevin Federline is to receive sole custody of his children with troubled singer Britney Spears in a new agreement expected to get court approval on Friday, the "PopoZao" rapper's lawyer has revealed.

Mark Vincent Kaplan, Federline's attorney, told E! News that the former couple have signed the agreement, which gives the aspiring rapper legal and physical custody of sons Sean Preston, 2, and Jayden James, 1. Spears will continued to have visitation rights.

"The case has been settled," Kaplan said. "The court still has to approve it." Both camps are due in court on Friday.

The agreement means the case won't go to court.

"As of this evening there is a fully executed deal memo ... All the issues that would have been addressed at trial have been settled," Kaplan told E! News. "Can't speak to the exact terms of the deal. Orders in place ... will stay in place."

It's unclear if Spears will receive increased visitation with her kids. She currently enjoys two visits and one overnight per week. A source close to Spears told PEOPLE that the singer will likely get increased visitation right over time.

"Until the kids turn 18, we can expect in years to come that Britney and Kevin will be back in court," says L.A. family lawyer Lynn Soodik, who is not involved with the case. "Britney will have a better chance of winning more custody once she regains her health. This is just the end of Round One."
