Britney Spears has reportedly found love with waiter Michael Marchand, who works at the popular Mirabelle resturant in Los Angeles, where the new couple had dinner together.

A source revealed; “Michael came in a little after midnight, and she came in right after wearing black and dark glasses. They were being discreet.

Forty-five minutes later, they left the restaurant together. He was charming, he made Britney laugh and looked at her with this secret smile. They left in separate cars.”

When the handsome man was asked about his recent romance with the pop star he replied; “I can’t talk about that right now.”

Britney reportedly fell instantly for Michael while dining at the exclusive resturant earlier this month.

A source revealed to Life & Style Weekly; “Their chemistry was immediate. He’s very attracted to her. They’re always texting each other.”

Meanwhile, Britney has been forced to step up her security in order to protect her children from the constant media frenzy that surrounds her every movement.

The troubled singer is worried her battle for custody of her two children, Sean Preston and Jayden James, is going to create more interest and in the end will but her kids at risk.

Sorrell Trope, who is Britney’s attorney, told People.com; “Recent aggressive actions by individuals who have followed (Spears) and blocked her access, with and without the children, have resulted in her decision to take certain security measures which she hopes will only be necessary temporarily, for the protection of the children.

Ms. Spears hopes that she and Mr. Federline will be able to reach an agreement as to all matters concerning their children.

She hopes that by not commenting on court proceedings the media attention in those proceedings will subside, which she requests for the safety and well being of the children”.
