Britney Spears and Sam Asghari headed for divorce: report

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari have separated and are heading for divorce, according to a new report.

The separation stems from a vicious fight in which Asghari accused Spears of cheating on him, TMZ reports. It was allegedly the latest event in a relationship that had become toxic.

“It’s only a matter of time before Sam files for divorce,” a source told TMZ.

Asghari, 29, has stuck by Spears, 41, through a turbulent seven years since they met in 2016. He fought alongside her to end the conservatorship that controlled her life for 13 years, then defended her in the face of several post-conservatorship tabloid reports.

“I’ve always respected and supported her privacy with everything I’ve had,” he wrote on Instagram in December 2022. “I ask of you supportive and protective fans to do the same.”

TMZ previously reported in May that Asghari and Spears’ relationship was in “deep trouble,” citing multiple sources. The outlet said Spears became physical with Asghari in multiple fights, and Asghari responded by moving out of their house.

“Britney and Sam have had ups and downs throughout their relationship. They have a lot of love for each other, but they also argue a lot over fundamental issues,” a source told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday. “Sometimes they feel as though each other’s needs aren’t being completely met. Recently, things took a bad turn and their arguments became more serious and real.”

Asghari and Spears met while she was filming the music video for her 2016 song “Slumber Party.” He proposed to her in September 2021, and the couple wed the following June.

The pair reportedly signed a prenup in which Spears would retain control over the millions of dollars she’s earned from her music career. Asghari joked before the wedding that he suggested a prenup to protect his shoe collection.
