Britney Spears and Sam Asghari are getting a divorce, and the singer’s prenuptial agreement is said to be bad for her ex-husband. TMZ says that the couple’s prenuptial agreement does not include any cash payouts or spousal support. He can keep any gifts he gets and his cars, but that’s pretty much all he can take with him.
But the news source says that Spears might have to give Asghari a going-away gift because he asked for spousal support in his divorce case. TMZ says that Asgahari could challenge the prenup because spousal support is already off the table and is likely to be refused by the court. In another part of the prenup, Asghari agrees that he can’t talk about anything private about his connection with Spears. But if the prenup is overturned, he might not have to follow the NDA, which is something Spears might want to avoid. TMZ says that this hypothetical situation might never happen if the pop star gives Asghari a settlement amount.
Even though Spears hasn’t said anything about the breakup yet, Asghari recently said something about it on social media. “After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together,” he wrote on Instagram Stories, as reported by PEOPLE. “We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always.” Then, Asgharu said, “S— happens. Asking for privacy seems [ridiculous] so I will just ask for everyone including media to be kind and thoughtful.”
Brandon Cohen, a rep for Asghari from BAC Talent, also spoke out. He confirmed the reports that Asghari might try to “exploit” Spears. “There are many claims that Sam is challenging the prenup and threatening to exploit his ex-wife with videos,” he said. “However, all these claims are false, as no negative intention has ever been directed towards her and never will be. Sam has always and will always support her.”
Spears and Asghari met for the first time on the set of her music video for “Slumber Party” with Tinashe in 2016. Soon after that, they started dating, and in September 2021, they got engaged. In April 2022, Spears said she was pregnant with her third child and Asghari’s first. A month later, she lost the baby. Asghari and Spears got married at Spears’ home in California on June 9, 2022. After the wedding, they moved into a home that Spears bought for just under $12 million in Calabasas.
