Britney Spears' ex-husband Sam Asghari has opened up about his time with the music star. The couple first met when the original actor who was set to appear in her 2016 music video for Slumber Party failed to turn up at filming. Their friendship went on to blossom into a romance, with many believing that Britney, who had suffered heartache in the past had finally found her forever husband. The pair went Instagram official in January the following year as they welcomed in 2017 together at a party in Los Angeles.
In September 2021, the pair became engaged after Sam popped the question as they took to social media to share their joyeous news. Sam had been at Britney's side throughout her conservatorship and was extremely vocal about his support for the If U Seek Amy songstress.
Throughout the Free Britney movement, he used his social media handles to speak out in hopes of Britney being released from the court-mandated conservatorship which her father, Jamie Spears, had held against her. Now, in a new interview, he has stated that he will never say a bad word about the pop princess.
Sam, who is set to star on the US version of The Traitors said: "I think it's the bare minimum you can do as a partner, to be a backbone to someone and to be their biggest supporter, biggest cheerleader, the biggest… The biggest everything." The pair married at her California home on June 9, 2022. However, she filed for divorce the following year citing irreconcilable differences, with their divorce being signed off on December 2, 2024.
