Sam Asghari Source Denies Claims He Fed Britney Spears’ Dad Jamie Spears Informa
Transcript
00:00 New allegations are swirling amid the divorce between Britney Spears and her estranged husband,
00:03 Sam Asghari. A new report from the Daily Mail, citing a source close to Britney,
00:08 claims the singer grew suspicious that Sam was allegedly secretly working with her father,
00:11 Jamie Spears, to give him details about her life and keep her in her conservatorship.
00:16 The source reportedly claimed to the outlet, "Britney has reason to believe that Sam was
00:19 secretly working with her dad Jamie since early on in their relationship. Sam would supply
00:23 information to Jamie that would help to keep her locked in the conservatorship. In exchange,
00:27 Sam was given access to her and her money. Britney now feels like Sam was being deceitful all along."
00:32 However, a source close to Sam tells Access Hollywood that, quote, "the rumor that Mr.
00:35 Asghari was feeding information to Mr. Spears is not true and cannot be substantiated."
00:40 Access Hollywood has reached out to reps for Britney, Jamie, and Sam for comment on the claims.
00:44 The report surfaces two weeks after news first broke that Sam and Britney had gone their separate
00:48 ways after 13 months of marriage. Access looks back at the whole story so far, from the initial
00:53 news of their split to everything that's happened since. It's the end of the road for Britney Spears
00:58 and Sam Asghari. A source close to Sam tells Access Hollywood that he and the minor business
01:03 songstress have separated after more than 14 months of marriage. Britney and Sam have both
01:07 yet to speak out on the news, and Access Hollywood has reached out to reps for both for comment.
01:11 Their separation comes two months after the pair marked their first wedding anniversary.
01:15 To commemorate the milestone, Sam shared a photo on his Instagram story of him and his
01:18 wife flashing their wedding bands and wrote, "Happy one year to me and my better half."
01:23 Months prior, the pop star and her beau sparked attention after they were each
01:26 spotted without their wedding rings on. At the time, Sam's rep shut down any speculation that
01:30 they were on the rocks, telling Access there were no marital issues and that he'd merely
01:34 taken his wedding ring off because he was filming a movie. Britney and Sam first struck up a romance
01:39 in 2016 after meeting on the set of her music video for her song "Slumber Party." In September
01:44 of 2021, the singer announced that her longtime love had popped the question. The following April,
01:49 Sam told Access Hollywood's Mario Lopez about picking out Britney's engagement ring
01:53 and told the funny story of how he accidentally almost spoiled his plans to propose.
01:57 You're engaged too by the way? Congratulations. What about the ring? Did you have
02:00 help picking up the ring? I went to this designer in New York and it's a beautiful ring. It's made
02:07 for a princess, but also it's from a hardworking man to a princess. Yeah, it was beautiful, Matt.
02:14 It was. Funny story. Let me tell you the funny story. I never told this. So a day before proposal,
02:22 I went to send, you know on Instagram, you take a video and you send it through Instagram. That's
02:28 the fastest way to do it nowadays. It comes out clearer and everything. So I went to send it to
02:32 my sister, but I accidentally posted it for a few seconds. So the whole world got to see the ring.
02:40 So I deleted it right away. And somebody still grabbed it? Are you kidding me? It was all over
02:44 the news. Wow. That's crazy. How did they do that that quick? So inside the ring, there's a thing
02:49 called lioness because my nickname for her is lioness. It was, you know, it was the ring that
02:56 it was posted and everybody, you know, got a hold of it. The whole entire world saw it. And I said
03:02 to her, I'm still shopping around. You know, I covered it up real quick. You covered it up. That
03:06 was good. I was in a hurry because I already posted it. Right now you're ticking clock. Yeah.
03:11 But still very extravagant and very surprising. You know, I keep a class. Yeah, no, no, no,
03:18 you do, man. And I know you've been going off like seven years, right? Why was now the right
03:21 time? You think it was the right time? Like four years ago, maybe really it's way overdue. Yes. Wow.
03:27 Okay. So good for you, man. Months later in June, 2022, Sam and Brittany tied the knot in a surprise
03:33 ceremony at her California home. AXIS caught up with Sam later that year at GQ's men of the year
03:38 party. And he showed off his wedding ring and told us life was going great. You have some nice
03:44 additions here. Beautiful. I see that's a gorgeous watch. And let's take a look at your ring. You got
03:50 that your wedding ring. Yes, absolutely, man. Absolutely. It is. It's a wedding ring. So
03:55 amazing watch as a man, you have to wear only a few jewelries. If you're not a jewelry person,
04:00 I'm not a jewelry person. So I have to wear my wedding ring and I'm a watch guy. So I love
04:06 wearing watches as well. Watch enthusiasts. Yes, sir. And how is life? How's life going?
04:11 How's everything at home? Life is amazing, man. Everything's going really great. Thank you for
04:16 asking. Britney Spears is riding into a new chapter of her life. Following the news that
04:21 the 41 year old singer and her husband, Sam Asghari, are separating after 14 months of marriage,
04:27 she took to her Instagram to reveal she's quote, buying a horse. Britney shared a photo of herself
04:33 horseback riding at the beach and captioned the post, buying a horse soon. So many options. It's
04:40 kind of hard. A horse called Sophie and another called Roar. I can't make up my mind. Should I
04:46 join the camaraderie and put a pink cowboy hat on? Either way, I think I found my sweet spot with
04:52 Roar. A source close to Sam told Access Hollywood on Wednesday that the pair have called it quits.
04:58 An insider shared with NBC News, quote, they're separated and it's best for Britney. NBC News,
05:05 citing a separate source, also reports that Sam has filed for divorce and moved out of his and
05:10 Britney's home. Sam Asghari is breaking his silence following his split from Britney Spears.
05:16 The 29 year old actor spoke out for the first time on Thursday, one day after filing for divorce from
05:22 the music superstar, issuing a statement on his Instagram story, writing, quote,
05:26 After six years of love and commitment to each other, my wife and I have decided to end our
05:30 journey together. We will hold on to the love and respect we have for each other, and I wish her the
05:35 best always. He began. He then goes on to speak more candidly, acknowledging the public attention
05:41 surrounding the news. Quote, it happens. Asking for privacy seems ridiculous, so I will just ask
05:47 for everyone, including media, to be kind and thoughtful. In an additional statement to Access
05:52 Hollywood, Sam's rep denied rumors about the fitness influencers divorce strategy, saying,
05:56 quote, There are many claims that Sam is challenging the prenup and threatening to
06:00 exploit his ex-wife with videos. However, all these claims are false, as no negative intention
06:05 has ever been directed towards her and never will be. Sam has always and will always support her.
06:10 According to court documents obtained by Access Hollywood, Sam listed his and Britney separation
06:15 date as July 28th and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for their split.
06:21 Sam has requested spousal support and for Britney to pay his legal fees, the paper state.
06:26 Access Hollywood previously reached out to Britney's team for comment.
06:30 As of Thursday, the 41-year-old has not issued any direct statement,
06:34 but that morning she did drop her first Instagram post since the split was confirmed.
06:38 Octavia Spencer's advice to Britney Spears following her engagement to Sam
06:43 Ashgari has resurfaced now that the couple is calling it quits after a year of marriage.
06:47 When the 41-year-old singer announced in September 2021 that she and Sam were heading for the altar,
06:54 Octavia offered a marriage tip in a since-deleted Instagram comment writing,
06:58 "Make him sign a prenup." At the time, the Oscar winner received backlash for her remark,
07:05 which prompted her to post an apology on Instagram, writing in part at the time,
07:08 "Y'all, a few days ago Sam and Britney announced their engagement and me being me,
07:13 I made a joke. My intention was to make them laugh, not cause pain."
07:17 Well, now that the pair have separated, fans are recirculating her advice,
07:22 saying the help star was right. One user wrote on social media,
07:26 "Throwback, she got dragged for this but Octavia Spencer is like an auntie we all
07:31 need in our lives." With another writing, "Everyone say thank you Octavia."
07:35 Pink is seemingly showing her support for Britney Spears amid the news she is getting
07:41 divorced from her husband Sam Ashgari. On Wednesday, the "So What" singer updated the
07:46 lyrics to her hit song "Don't Let Me Get Me" while performing in Detroit. The original
07:51 briefly mentions the circus singer,
07:53 "Tryna be compared to damn Britney Spears. She's so pretty, that's just how you feel."
08:02 During her summer carnival tour stop at Comercia Park, Pink took the opportunity to change "damn
08:08 Britney Spears" to "sweet Britney Spears," according to fan videos from the show.
08:14 The change was met by a loud celebration from the crowd. Earlier that day, it was reported that
08:20 Brit and her husband of just over a year were calling it quits. In February 2023,
08:25 Pink admitted that she is protective of her fellow pop star, telling People,
08:30 "People think I was picking on Britney on my 2001 single 'Don't Let Me Get Me,'
08:35 but I've always felt like a big sister to her. I'm very protective of her and she's
08:39 the sweetest person in the world. I wish her well. I cover her in light all day long."
08:44 Britney Spears has broken her silence. Following news of her breakup from husband
08:49 Sam Asghari, the singer took to Instagram on Friday night to address their public split.
08:54 "As everyone knows, Hassam and I are no longer together. 6 years is a long time to be with
09:00 someone so I'm a little shocked. But I'm not here to explain why because it's honestly nobody's
09:05 business," she wrote alongside a video of herself dancing, adding, "But I couldn't take the pain
09:11 anymore honestly. In some sort of telepathic way, I've been receiving so many messages that melt my
09:16 heart from friends and I thank you." The 41-year-old went on to note that she's playing
09:21 strong for her fans on Instagram, but that's quote "far from reality." Quote, "If I wasn't my dad's
09:28 strong soldier, I would be sent away to places to get fixed by doctors. But that's when I needed
09:33 family the most. You're supposed to be loved unconditionally, no under conditions. So I will
09:39 be as strong as I can and do my best. And I'm actually doing pretty damn good," she concluded
09:45 in part.
