Sam Ashgari has filed for divorce from Britney Spears after 13 months of marriage citing irreconcilable differences. News of this split comes during the breakups and botched plastic surgery season of Venus retrograde when we are all tasked with renegotiating what love, worth and commitment look like and consequently cutting ties with those that don’t make the cut.
It’s a breakup, bitch.
Fitness trainer and professional husband Sam Ashgari has filed for divorce from pop star/barefoot bathrrom queen/frenetic legend Britney Spears after 13 months of marriage citing irreconcilable differences.
In his filing, Ashgari is seeking both spousal support and attorney’s fees and is reportedly threatening to release damaging information about his wife if the terms of the couple’s prenup are not renegotiated.
Woof.
The pair’s relationship has been a source of controversy, speculation, social media sensationalization and deep conspiracy theories from the jump.
The pair first met in 2016 on the set of Spears’ music video for the song “Slumber Party.” In typical fire sign fashion, the singer made the first move, calling Ashgari (potentially with her troll father Jamie tapping the line) to ask him out on a date.
Ashgari proposed in 2021 and stood by Spears during her legal battle to free herself from the abusive confines of her conservatorship.
The pair wed in June 2022 in a backyard fairytale ceremony complete with horse drawn carriage, a metric f–k ton of pink roses and celebrity guests like Madonna, Paris Hilton, Donatella Versace, Selena Gomez and Drew Barrymore. The union was Ashgari’s first and Spears’ third.
The singer wed childhood pal turned stalker Jason Alexander in Vegas in 2004 and was married to backup dancer Kevin Federline from 2004-2007. She shares two children, sons Sean Preston and Jayden James with Federline though her relationship with her progeny has oscillated between strained, strange and estranged as of late.Did Britney cheat?
Earlier this year it was reported that Spears had been physically abusive to Ashgari and news of their split coincided with the surfacing of cheating rumors alleging that Spears stepped out on her man.
As Brit’s die hard fans were quick to point out, she’s a bit of a recluse (though by no means a wallflower) and when she does leave the house its typically amid a horde of paparazzi coverage making infidelity not entirely out of the question but certainly unlikely.
Not for nothing, news of this split comes during the ugly cry breakups and botched plastic surgery season of Venus retrograde when we are all tasked with renegotiating what love, worth, wealth, wellness and commitment look like and consequently cutting ties with anything and anyone that doesn’t light us up or push us forward.
