Britney Spears And Sam Asghari Headed For Divorce

It looks like one of the most beloved pop princesses did not find her happily ever after. Singer Britney Spears and her husband, Sam Asghari, are reportedly getting a divorce. The two were married for fourteen months, following seven years of dating. Spears has been through a lot these past couple of years, with the fight against her conservatorship, and it looked like Asghari was someone to lean on during this time. However, this marriage is at its end, and it may not be an easy one.

Asghari filed for divorce on Wednesday. Many news outlets picked up that it was happening before the official filing. The filing comes a week after TMZ reported that the couple had an explosive argument where Asghari accused Spears of cheating. Spears vehemently denies any cheating rumors, and sources say this divorce has put a lot of stress and sadness on Spears. A close source told Entertainment Tonight that “Their issues tend to get worse when they are away from each other and spending time apart. Britney tends to feel that she isn’t being prioritized by Sam at times. Their arguments have led them to become unhappy at times in their relationship.”

There appears to be a lot of drama in the divorce when it comes to the prenup. As expected, due to Britney Spears’ massive wealth, the couple signed an iron-clad prenup before they got married. However, the agreements in that prenup may change. According to Page Six, Asghari is reportedly trying to renegotiate the prenup in his favor. Page Six also reported that Asghari is blackmailing Spears for a prenup renegotiation, and he may reveal some embarrassing information about Spears if she does not agree with him. However, sources say Spears and her legal team are not worried about this possible plan, as she has a lot of protection and a high-profile legal team.

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari’s History

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari met in 2016 on the music video set for her song ”Slumber Party”. Asghari is an actor who has made guest appearances in many television shows and music videos, including Fifth Harmony’s “Work From Home” music video. When everything about Spears’ conservatorship came out, Asghari was her support system. One of the things she wanted to do when she was fighting for her freedom was to get to marry Asghari. The two got engaged in September of 2021 when her conservatorship was ending. In April 2022, the couple was expecting a baby, but Spears, unfortunately, suffered a miscarriage. The couple then got married in June 2022. This divorce feels quick, but there is a lot that people do not know about it yet.

The Marriage History of Britney Spears

This marriage was Britney Spears’ third marriage. Her first marriage was to her childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander in Las Vegas in 2004. The couple annulled their marriage 55 hours later. The two are no longer friends. At Spears’ most recent wedding, Alexander tried to crash it. Her second marriage was to dancer Keven Federline, also in 2004. With Federline, Spears had two sons, Sean and Jayden. Spears filed for divorce in 2006, with the divorce finalized in 2007. This divorce came during Spears’ very public breakdown. Federline retained primary custody of their sons, and the three of them live in Hawaii. Spears has had a rocky record with marriages, which a life in the spotlight has not made easier.

Britney Spears’ Instagram Post

So far, Britney Spears has not commented publicly on her divorce. However, she has made an Instagram post since the news of the divorce came out. The Instagram post was simply a picture of Spears riding a horse, with the caption saying that she now wants to buy a horse. Maybe she is remaining positive, or the horse is a distraction from the harshness of divorce. The divorce will likely not be an easy battle. However, Spears has gained massive public support in recent years, her fans will continue to support her throughout this divorce.
