"Sam is thrilled that Britney finally has the opportunity and freedom to speak her truth with her book."

Britney has regularly displayed concerning behavior on Instagram in various dance clips this past year, worrying fans with rumors of drug use ensuing from ex-husband Kevin Federline.

SAM'S STRUGGLES

Hesam Asghari, who now goes by Sam, was born on March 3, 1994, in Tehran, Iran but moved to the United States when he was 13 years old.

Sam has shared concerning statements of his own on his Instagram page while posting images of his naked torso and snaps from a movie set.

A clip Sam posted on April 9 showed him sitting at the wheel of a Toyota Corolla in Atlanta, Georgia while he was shooting a movie.

During his monologue, the actor said the car reminded him of his youth.

Sam confessed he had felt “ashamed” when he pulled up to school or football practices in a car that was different from his friend's luxury ones.

He went on to explain: “It’s what you bring with yourself. Driving a better car does not make you a better person.”

Psychologist  told The U.S. Sun: “On his Instagram feed, Sam changes from showing off his body to a seriously expensive watch, to humble bragging about the Toyota Corolla.

“In other videos, Sam criticizes the US health service for offering power to patients.

“Sam is covering all bases — being humble on the one hand and bragging on the other.

“Sam is clearly hedging his bets if he splits with Britney."

BRITNEY AND SAM

Britney and Sam were first romantically linked in 2016, meeting when he starred in a music video of hers.

They got engaged on September 12, 2021.

Previously, her conservatorship hadn't allowed them to wed, nor was she allowed to expand her family.

The fitness trainer and actor has defended the pop star throughout her #freebritney conservatorship battle and beyond.

On November 12, 2021, Los Angeles County Judge Brenda Penny ruled in Britney's favor to end her conservatorship.

On June 9, 2022, Britney and Sam tied the knot in a private ceremony in California.

Since they tied the knot, the two have remained supportive of each other.

In July 2023, Spears was involved in an incident with NBA player Victor Wembanyama's security guard when he hit the singer in her face.

Britney has since shared her take on the incident, as did her husband, who took to Instagram to defend his wife.

Asghari wrote on his Instagram story: "Self-defense can be unavoidable, but the defense of any woman, especially my wife, is not debatable.

"I consider my reaction subdued considering what occurred, and I hope the man in question learns a lesson and changes his disregard for women. Thank you for your support."

The pop star wore Versace when she celebrated her big wedding day, with friends like Madonna and Selena Gomez attending.

Britney's two sons Sean, 16, and Jayden, 15, didn't attend. Neither did her mom, dad, or sister, Jamie Lynn.

This is Britney’s third marriage.

She tied the knot with her childhood friend Jason Alexander in 2004 only to divorce 55 hours later.

In 2004, she married dancer Kevin Federline - with whom she shares her two boys - but divorced in 2007 ahead of the conservatorship.

Unfortunately, her third wedding did not go without issue as The U.S. Sun revealed that Britney's ex-husband, Jason, crashed the event at her home.
