It might not be pictures. It could be as simple as not detailing whatever cheating happened. I would consider that kind of disclosure more forgivable since he would be merely stating the facts of why they broke up. I don't think she particularly cares about nude photos since they were only censored in the first place to keep from violating Instagram's terms of service. However, confirming cheating rumors would definitely tarnish the halo that her followers have placed over her head.

Would it, though? They're pretty cult-minded and don't seem particularly concerned with facts, just worship. lol

There is a thread on Reddit (R\Entertainment, I think) about this, with actual family-law lawyers weighing in, and it looks like Sam did sign a confidentiality agreement in addition to the prenup. Depending on how it was written, he could be penalized an amount that would make selling inside info not worth the effort. So, I think the question for Spears and her lawyers will be - how scorched earth is he going to feel if she did cheat, he has to keep his mouth shut, and he gets some kind of tiny prenup settlement? It would be better to re-write things and throw a little more money at him.

She posted another twirly dance video in her low rider draws and boots with a caption addressing the break up.

Song choice is interesting.

I think she's a horrible dancer. She always looks so robotic -- even on stage. She doesn't have natural rhythm or flow. There is absolutely nothing sexy about her. These twirly home movies are the worst. She looks deranged.

She's a child in adult skin.

Imo she was such a better dancer when she was younger. Is like she lost her ability to feel the music throughout her.

That's really quite sad that she thinks her Instagram life comes across as perfect.

I saw a statement in the media saying it was rock solid, that he can keep his car(s?) but that he *may* (only) be able to keep the gifts she gave him.

Sam Asghari won't walk away from his marriage to Britney Spears empty-handed. While Asghari, who has signed a confidentiality agreement, will not get a payout or spousal support after he and Spears get divorced, he will be allowed to keep his vehicles and [b[may potentially keep any gifts[/b[ he's received from the singer.

That is all in accordance with the pair's prenup, which a source previously told ET was "rock solid."

The latest update came the week that news of Asghari and Spears' split broke. That same day, ET exclusively reported that Asghari, 29, had filed for divorce from the pop star, 41.

As for what led to their breakup, a source told ET that "the two haven't got along for a while and it finally came to an end after a major blowup" amid cheating rumors against Spears.

"Sam believes that Britney cheated on him," a second source told ET. "He believes he caught her in a lie and it caused him to be done with the relationship."

A third source told ET that Asghari and Spears' relationship went downhill when her conservatorship was terminated in November 2021.

"Britney could be argumentative at times, but also felt like Sam didn't let her do a lot of things without him," the source said. "Before Britney's conservatorship ended, Sam was very supportive. Once it ended, Britney felt very free, but that eventually changed based on certain dynamics in her relationship with Sam."

"Britney felt like things shifted in her relationship with Sam once her conservatorship ended. Before it ended, Britney was more in a set routine, but once she was free, a lot changed," another source told ET. "Britney wanted to embrace her freedom and felt like Sam couldn't necessarily handle that. Britney will never let another person control her, and she felt like that was starting to happen again."

Asghari has broken his silence on the split, writing on Instagram, "After 6 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," he wrote. "S**t happens. Asking for privacy seems ridiculous so I will just ask for everyone including media to be kind and thoughtful."

Asghari's rep also spoke out, denying several reports that had surfaced about their client.

"There are many claims that Sam is challenging the prenup and threatening to exploit his ex-wife with videos. However, all these claims are false," Asghari's rep told ET. "No negative intention has ever been directed towards her and never will be. Sam has always and will always support her."

If any of this is true, sounds to me like Sam just wanted to get the hell outta there after his wife got obsessed with knives and was throwing them at walls and keeping them hidden in couches. Remember what Jamie Lynn said in her book about Britney and knives? I also read elsewhere that she attacked him while he was sleeping and gave him a black eye. I think I'd be wanting to get the hell outta there too.

TOXIC Britney Spears’ husband Sam Asghari ended their marriage ‘after her behaviour plunged to all-time violent low’

BRITNEY Spears’ husband Sam Asghari ended their marriage after her behaviour plunged to an all-time low, pals claim.



The singer, 41, was said to have become increasingly erratic — and had been throwing knives at walls of her home.

The outbursts have left actor Sam, 29, struggling to cope — and he confirmed their split on Thursday.



While showbiz pals rallied behind Britney, one source told The Sun: “Her behaviour has become concerning and everyone is worried about her.



“She has been acting increasingly erratic and is in a vulnerable state. Sam was bearing the brunt and it proved too much.



“It’s all plunged to a new low and is sad to see.”



Another told us: “She’s very volatile, always ranting and shouting at the staff over minor things and making ridiculous demands.



“There’s smashed glass all over the house because Britney will just throw things.



“She has a weird obsession with knives. She has been throwing them at the walls and hiding them down the sofa.



“It is as though she is paranoid someone is after her and she needs the knives as protection.”


They added: “Britney tended to fly off the handle at the smallest slight and that terrified Sam.”



Multiple reports have told previously of mother-of-two Britney having a fascination with knives.



The star’s sister, Jamie-Lynn, said in her autobiography in January that Britney could be “paranoid and erratic”..



Recalling an incident in 2004, Jamie-Lynn wrote: “She said to me, ‘Baby, I’m scared’, and took a large knife from the kitchen, pulled me along to my room and she locked us both inside.”



The Sun’s source added of the marriage split: “Things hadn’t been right for a while.



"At first, Sam wanted to save Britney, help get her through her problems, but it all became too much.”



Britney’s pals Paris Hilton, Selena Gomez and Madonna, who met Sam at the couple’s wedding last year, had all unfollowed him on social media yesterday.



Singer Pink, performing in Detroit, changed the lyrics to her 2001 single Don’t Let Me Get Me to brand Britney “sweet”.



Insiders said Madonna had offered to speak to her friend.



A showbiz source said: “Madonna feels very maternal towards Britney.



"She has always been a rock for her behind the scenes and this is no different.


“She wants Britney to know she’s not alone and anything she needs — legal support or otherwise — she is there to help.”



Court documents filed in the US on Thursday revealed Sam was asking Britney for spousal support and to cover his lawyer’s fees.



His representative denied he would be challenging a pre-nuptial agreement.



Iran-born Sam met Britney, who was married twice before, in 2016 when he appeared as a dancer for the video of her hit Slumber Party.



The couple got engaged in September 2021 and were married in a small ceremony in June 2022.



Confirming their split, he said: “After six years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together.



“We will hold on to the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always.”



Britney became a superstar after her song …Baby One More Time was released when she was just 16.



But she has battled mental health problems and won a bruising court fight to be released from a 13-year conservatorship in 2021.



She did not address the divorce in a Wednesday night post to her 42million Instagram followers, instead writing that she was “buying a horse soon”.



This week, she posted a video of her dancing provocatively around a new pole, saying: “Got this two days ago and last night was my first time on it.”


The Sun contacted Britney’s people for comment.

Britney Spears' PR is already at work.

Page Six is told Asghari has been living separately from Spears for months as one insider said: “Britney wanted a fairytale and she didn’t get it. She felt that Sam’s love was not unconditional.

“Of course she feels let down…anyone would when your partner is not providing for you in the way you feel you need to be provided for.

“She booked great, high-end vacations and paid for everything, they went everywhere on private jet.

“But he was not super present, You only have to ask, where was he when Britney was filming all her Instagram videos? He would just disappear for months to go filming and she would be left all alone. There were times when he would just get up and go.”

Despite reports that Asghari suspected Spears had cheated on him – as well as reports she had attacked him while he slept, the insider denied this, saying: “There was no cheating. And he’s 6ft 2 and she’s 5ft 2, so how could she attack him?

“The honest truth of it is that it’s complicated, this wasn’t a whiplash decision, it’s been in the works for the past month.”

Although Spears remains largely estranged from her family, including dad Jamie, who brought about her strict conservatorship in 2008 at the height of his daughter’s mental health issues, other members of her family have reached out to offer support, we’re told

She also has the ongoing help of a therapist, friends said, and has hired divorce lawyer to the stars, Laura Wasser.

One pal added: “Britney is strong, she’s feeling like ‘woah’, like you would in any break-up when you’ve been with someone for six years, but she’s very clear headed. She’s not holed up all alone crying.”

Another told Page Six: “I think Britney gets a bad rap, she’s a true artist, in the way that she processes things, in the way that she creates. But she’s doing incredibly well under the circumstances.”

I hate bullshit like this. A similar thing was said when Caroline Flack attacked her boyfriend in bed. It's not hard to attack anyone while they are asleep.
Women can abuse men. Not every man would fight back.

She's a mentally ill and fragile woman who was trained at a very young age to use her sexuality as a lure and a weapon. The look on her face as she twirls/performs is horrifying.

It's very, very, difficult for me to imagine a happy ending for this wounded little girl.

Agreed.
The whole statement is a mess of contradiction as well - she seems to be irritated that she's paid for everything but is equally irritated when he goes to work.

I also noted that he "didn't look after her how she wanted to be looked after". Does that mean he was trying to treat her like an adult & not a spoilt child? Adult relationships are about compromise & working together not one party getting everything their own way. Or - let me qualify - healthy adult relationships....

It's kind of astounding that someone would use that as a defense in this day and age.  There are countless stories where a much larger guy takes physical abuse from a smaller, weaker, rampaging partner.

In all honesty, I feel like a deal has already been made after reading what Asghari's rep has said.  That being said, I am not sure why Spears decided to get Laura Wasser involved.
