Kevin Federline Blames Depression for Weight Gain

Kevin Federline, ex-husband to Brittany Spears opened up about gaining weight and overeating after the divorce, saying it was brought on by depression. Rumors had been floating that he intentionally put on the weight so he would get selected for VH1’s ‘Celebrity Fit Club: Boot Camp.’ He says this is not the case.

“They called me and they asked me if I wanted to do it and I had maybe 24 hours to decide because the show started taping the next day after that weekend,” he said. “It just couldn’t have come at a better time.”

“Once you get depressed, you don’t really feel like doing anything. You’re kind of discouraged about yourself and then the weight gain too, or that makes me more depressed,” he said. “I mean, it’s a combination of all of those things.”
