- Britney Spears and Sam Asghari separated recently
- They have officially settled their divorce now
- The settlement agreed upon is shocking fans
The saga seems to finally be over. In an unexpected turn of events that has fans reeling, Britney Spears, the iconic pop sensation, and her husband, Sam Asghari, the dashing fitness instructor-turned-actor, have officially settled their divorce.
The duo, whose whirlwind romance captivated millions, filed a Stipulated Judgment, signaling a harmonious end to their brief, yet headline-grabbing marriage.
A Swift and Smooth Settlement
Just over a year after saying "I do," Sam Asghari took the bold step of filing for divorce from the 'Toxic' singer in August 2023, sparking widespread speculation about the fate of their union.
However, in a move that surprised many, the proceedings have been anything but contentious. A judge is poised to put the final stamp on their divorce any day now, closing this chapter in their lives.
The power couple had the foresight to sign a prenuptial agreement before walking down the aisle, a decision that has undoubtedly streamlined their separation process. Despite the initial drama, Sam quickly made it clear that he had no intention of contesting the prenup, ensuring a drama-free dissolution to their marriage.
The prenup became a hot topic back in 2021 when Octavia Spencer, the acclaimed 'A Time to Kill' actress, humorously advised Britney to secure one upon her engagement. The comment, intended as a jest, went viral, leading Spencer to issue an apology for any unintended hurt her remark may have caused.
Demonstrating his gracious character, Asghari publicly accepted her apology, acknowledging the light-hearted intent behind her words.
Britney and Sam's journey together may have reached its conclusion, but it's clear that respect and kindness have prevailed throughout their parting. In a world where celebrity divorces often turn messy, their amicable resolution is a breath of fresh air.
"The divorce was amicable and the prenup was not challenged," a source tells 'People' magazine. "Britney is continuing to flex her freedom and is moving on." They also clarified that despite previous reports, Spears is not on Asghari's current lease nor paying his rent. "The report that she is in financial distress is false and she is not on any lease for him," the insider says.
Following his divorce filing, Asghari, 30, spoke out for the first time about his split from Spears, 42, with a statement on social media.
All is well that ends well
"After six years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together. We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always," the actor wrote on his Instagram Story.
Sam told 'People' "it was a blessing to be able to share life with someone for a long time. And people grow apart and people move on. I've always hated people leaving a certain relationship — and at some point they told each other they love each other and they sat at the same table and ate food [together] — so I never understood when people part ways [and] they talk badly about each other."
"That's something I'm never going to do because I had nothing but an amazing experience and a great life, and that's always going to be part of my life, a chapter of my life."
