In a heartfelt and candid Instagram post, pop icon Britney Spears has opened up about her emotional journey following her divorce from Sam Asghari. The 42-year-old singer shared a throwback video of herself dancing to Madonna’s “Addicted,” accompanied by a lengthy and introspective caption that delved into her post-divorce struggles and her quest to regain her confidence.
Spears, who finalised her divorce from Asghari in May 2024, reflected on the past year, admitting that she had experienced a “false confidence” after the split. “This was me almost a year ago in September!!! I look way younger and way smaller,” she wrote, noting the stark contrast between her past and present self. The “Baby One More Time” singer expressed a need to “brace” herself and slow down to process the whirlwind of events that have transpired since her divorce.
In her post, Spears acknowledged the numerous “WTF” moments she has encountered over the past year, stressing that she, like everyone else, is human and prone to making mistakes. “Trust me, I know we’re all human and make mistakes!!!” she wrote, adding that she feels the need to revisit therapy to help her navigate this challenging period. “I literally need to go back and adjust and possibly do a couple more therapy sessions!!!”
Spears’ relationship with Asghari, a fitness trainer and model, was often in the public eye. The couple, who married in June 2022, cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their separation. Despite the split, Asghari has spoken positively about their time together, describing it as a “blessing” and expressing gratitude for the experiences they shared.
Britney Spears and Sam Asghari’s relationship was a high-profile romance that began on the set of her 2016 music video for “Slumber Party,” where Asghari played her love interest. Their chemistry was evident, and the pair soon began dating, often sharing affectionate posts about each other on social media.
In 2018, Asghari accompanied Spears to the GLAAD Media Awards, where she received the Vanguard Award, highlighting their supportive partnership. After several years of dating, the couple tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in Los Angeles on June 9, 2022.
The pop star’s candid admission has resonated with many of her fans, who have expressed their support and admiration for her honestly.
