Sam Asghari, the fitness model and actor who was married to Britney Spears for a brief time, is opening up about his experience during their marriage. The couple, who wed in June 2022, called it quits the following year, finalizing their divorce in 2024.
In a recent appearance on the Sibling Revelry podcast with Kate and Oliver Hudson, Sam discussed the challenges he faced while supporting Britney, especially during her infamous conservatorship.
“One day I start learning about what the conservatorship is, and that’s when I was like, ‘Wait a minute. I thought I’m in America. What do you mean someone over the age of 18 needs permission from their parents?’” Sam shared. “That was the most difficult and weird spiral thing that I’ve witnessed in my life.”
He also talked about how he supported Britney throughout the difficult time, saying, “I think the best thing to do is to provide support in that moment and that’s what I did, I provided as much as I could.” His experience was a lesson in patience and empathy, as he continued, “This was my experience in life that I had to go through very gently because if you do anything wrong, you say the wrong thing…”
Sam’s reflections offer insight into the emotional toll that the conservatorship had on both Britney and those close to her. It’s clear that while their marriage ended, Sam’s understanding of the situation has only deepened.
