As it became known, Britney Spears is divorcing her third husband, bodybuilder and model Sam Asghari. Interestingly, their marriage lasted just over a year.

According to insiders, the reason for the split was rumors of the singer's infidelity to her husband. So, what's known and why are fans deeply concerned about their idol?

Britney Spears is getting a divorce

Britney Spears and Sam Asghari met in 2016 while shooting a music video. There was an instant spark between the singer and the model, and since then, they have been practically inseparable.

It's worth noting that the bodybuilder even actively supported his love, advocating for the freedom of the artist as part of the Free Britney movement, Ukr.Media reports.

However, they decided to get married only in the summer of 2022. Although the event was relatively modest, it was attended by Drew Barrymore, Paris Hilton, and even Madonna.

But some users on the internet claimed even then that their happiness wouldn't last long. Well, now they can confidently say, "We told you so," isn't that right?

The thing is, Britney Spears is getting a divorce. At least the lawyers of both the pop princess and her husband are already working on preparing the relevant documents. But how could this happen?

After all, Asghari actively supported the singer during a difficult period for her, helped her believe in herself, and shared her story with the world.

Divorce and Maiden Name

However, after a few months from the wedding day, the charming fairy tale seems to have disappeared. Arguments began between Britney and Asghari. In fact, there were even several headlines in the media about their potential separation.

Now, it seems that reconciliation and happy selfies on Instagram are no longer on the table. And there's an interesting reason for that.

According to insiders, Sam Asghari accuses Britney Spears of infidelity. Furthermore, the model intends to extort a considerable sum from his soon-to-be ex-wife in exchange for embarrassing information.

He's ready to provide compromising information to journalists at any moment. But whether he will succeed in this endeavor remains a question. After all, it's starting to smell like blackmail, isn't it?

However, Spears herself doesn't seem overly concerned about it. The fact is, the singer has hired lawyer Laura Wasser. She has previously worked with celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Kevin Costner, and even Johnny Depp.

Moreover, it's unlikely that Asghari will manage to take any substantial amount from her. Britney and the model signed a prenuptial agreement. Spears' lawyers have arranged everything in such a way that in case of divorce, the star's millions will remain intact.

However, Spears' acquaintances have a less optimistic view. "There was constant drama between them. It's sad. The divorce will be devastating for Britney," one of the insiders believes.

But whether the singer will go on a spree, as her friends predict, remains unknown for now.

While she hasn't commented on the rumors of a split from Asghari, the artist has already shared another piece of news with her fans about buying a horse. It seems that's what's currently more important to the celebrity.
