Britney Spears’ ex-husband Jason Alexander has been arrested, after he tried to “crash” her wedding to Sam Asghari.
According to Sky News, police officers responded to an incident of trespassing at the singer’s home in Los Angeles on Thursday, shortly before she exchanged vows with Sam.
Prior to the incident, Jason had posted an Instagram Live from outside her property in which he said he was there to “crash” the wedding.
He was originally arrested for an out-of-county warrant, but will now face the additional four charges – including two counts of misdemeanour battery, one count of misdemeanour vandalism, and one count of misdemeanour trespassing.
According to the Ventura County Sheriff’s Department, an alleged altercation occurred with security officers, during which items had been broken.
Britney famously married Jason in Las Vegas back in 2004, but their marriage was annulled after just 55 hours.
Britney married her longtime partner Sam at her home in Los Angeles on Thursday, after five years together.
Sam’s representative Brandon Cohen confirmed their marriage to the AP news agency, and said: “I am very ecstatic this day has come, and they are married.”
“I know (Asghari) wanted this for so long. He is so caring and supportive every step of the way.”
It’s understood the couple wed in an intimate ceremony, with about 60 people in attendance.
The singer’s parents Jamie and Lynne, and her sister Jamie Lynn, were not in attendance.
The couple got engaged in September 2021, and were spotted ring shopping shortly afterwards.
At the time, the popstar announced the news via Instagram, sharing a video of her diamond ring, and wrote: “I can’t f***ing believe it 💍💍💍💍💍💍❣️!!!!!!”

In April, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together.
However, just one month later, they shared the heartbreaking news that they had lost their “miracle baby”.
The singer and the model have been dating since 2016, after meeting on the set of her Slumber Party music video.
Britney was previously married to her ex-husband Kevin Federline, with whom she shares two sons – Sean, 16, and Jayden, 15.
