Britney Spears and Sam Asghari reportedly signed an “ironclad” prenup before tying the knot last summer.
On August 16, TMZ reported that the couple had separated after a year of marriage.
According to the outlet, Sam confronted Britney over rumours she was allegedly unfaithful to him, which resulted in a major argument between them.
Britney and Sam tied the knot on June 9, 2022, after five years together.
At the time, TMZ reported that the couple signed a legal agreement before they got hitched, which ensures Sam will not receive a dollar Britney earned before their wedding day, in the event of their split.
After news of their “separation” broke, a source told Page Six: “Britney and Sam signed a prenup in her favor.”
“Any money she made before the wedding is protected.”
Elsewhere, a separate insider told the publication that Britney had hired a “high-powered divorce lawyer”, as her split from Sam is likely to turn into a courtroom battle.
The outlet reported that the Iranian-born actor is allegedly seeking to change the terms of their prenup.
The source alleged that Sam is “attempting to negotiate concessions beyond his prenup and threatening to go public with extraordinarily embarrassing information about Britney unless he gets paid”.
Britney and Sam celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary just a few weeks ago, after having tied the knot on June 9, 2022.
The couple exchanged vows at the singer’s home in Los Angeles in front of 60 guests – which included some famous faces.
Fashion mogul Donnatella Versace was spotted amongst guests, whom Britney had previously teased designed her wedding look.
Drew Barrymore, Maria Menounos and Paris Hilton were also in attendance, along with Paris’ mother Kathy Hilton.
Madonna, who Britney famously kissed at the 2003 VMAs, stepped out at the star’s wedding too.
Other famous faces including Zendaya, Selena Gomez, Kate Hudson and Gwyneth Paltrow were also said to have been in attendance.
Britney announced her engagement to Sam on September 12, 2021, by posting a video of her showing off her massive diamond ring.
She captioned the post: “I can’t f***ing believe it 💍💍💍💍💍💍❣️!!!!!!”
