In her first public statement since her divorce from Sam Asghari, Britney Spears has spoken out, sharing her sentiments on social media. The pop sensation took to Instagram to express her feelings about the end of her marriage.
Spears began by acknowledging the end of her relationship with Asghari, stating, “As everyone knows, Hesam and I are no longer together … 6 years is a long time to be with someone so, I’m a little shocked but … I’m not here to explain why because it’s honestly nobody’s business.”
Opening up about her emotional journey, Spears admitted, “I’ve been playing it strong for way too long and my Instagram may seem perfect but it’s far from reality and I think we all know that !!! I would love to show my emotions and tears on how I really feel but for some reason, I’ve always had to hide my weaknesses !!! If I wasn’t my dad’s strong soldier, I would be sent away to places to get fixed by doctors !!! But that’s when I needed family the most !!!”
This statement from Spears comes after Asghari also took to social media to share his perspective on the separation. He expressed, “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 also asked for kindness and thoughtfulness from the media and the public during this time.
Their wedding in June 2022 was attended by notable figures like Madonna, Selena Gomez, and Paris Hilton, although it was not without its share of controversy. The couple’s divorce follows just 14 months of marriage and nearly seven years of being together.
The couple had also announced their expectation of a child at one point, only to reveal a miscarriage just one month before their wedding. In a joint statement, they expressed their heartbreak over the loss.
