Britney Spears and Sam Ashgari have finalized their divorce almost a year after Asghari initiated the proceedings. According to TMZ, the former couple reached an agreement through a stipulated judgment, which was filed alongside Britney’s response to Sam’s divorce petition by her attorney, Laura Wasser. The decision is pending a judge’s approval, which will officially end the marriage.

The couple, who have been married for 14 months, had a prenuptial agreement in place, which reportedly leaves Asghari without a significant financial settlement from Spears. The outlet previously reported that Spears reportedly expected to give Asghari a six-figure sum and has been covering his rent. However, the specifics regarding their financial agreement have not been confirmed.
As previously reported, Asghari filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences, and close sources claimed there were allegations of infidelity and physical altercations. Asghari reportedly accused Spears of having an affair with a staff member and alleged footage of them in a compromising situation. Additionally, he accused his former spouse of physically attacking him, with one particular incident where she began punching him as he lay in bed. He was reportedly seen in public with a black eye and bite marks.

Previously, Spears admitted to making mistakes in her marriage and wrote in an Instagram post, “I used to be told all the time by someone I truly loved that there is no looking at that face of yours. My hopes in sharing is that by remembering that I can try and understand why I never feel good enough and to know it’s ok to get inside my brain try to figure it out…. Honestly there is an all knowing spiritual eye that knows the truth and triggers to why we do things as people. It’s important to go in there and figure it out yourself !!!”
Meanwhile, Asghari has been actively engaging with public life, including participating in a photo shoot with PETA. His involvement seemed to subtly address his recent personal experiences, with captions emphasizing lasting love and the responsibilities of pet ownership.
