(Xinhuanet) -- Pop star Britney Spears on Tuesday was granted in a court hearing overnight visitation rights with sons Sean Preston, two and half years, and Jaden James, 21 months, who are in the custody of her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, according to Web site TMZ.com. The Grammy-winning entertainer hasn't had her children overnight since January following her forced hospitalization at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.
At the closed-door hearing, Spears and Federline appeared before Commissioner Scott Gordon, who took the one-hour proceeding behind closed doors. The pop star and a parenting coach were questioned by Gordon.
Court spokesman Allan Parachini said that at the end of the hearing Gordon ordered the modification to Spears' visitation rights and set another status conference in the case for July 15.
Spears has turned her life around in the past few months after a year of troubling behaviour and two brief hospitalizations for psychiatric evaluation.
