Britney Spears Admits to 'Divorce Process' "I Couldn't Bear the Pain"

Global pop star Britney Spears (41) has acknowledged that she is entering the divorce process with her husband Sam Asghari (29), who is 12 years her junior.

On the 19th (local time), according to local media, Spears revealed on her Instagram account the day before, "As everyone knows, I am no longer with Asghari."

It is known that Spears and Asghari have already separated and that Asghari has filed for divorce. Spears stated, "Six years is a long time to be with someone," adding, "It's a bit shocking, but honestly, no one else’s business, so I am not writing this to explain the reasons."

Spears met Asghari while filming a music video in 2016 and started dating, eventually marrying him in June last year. She did not explain the reason for entering the divorce process with Asghari. However, she said, "Honestly, I could no longer endure the pain." She continued, "I have pretended to be strong for too long, and while my Instagram may look perfect, I think everyone knows it is far from reality," confessing that she always had to show a good image on Instagram.

She added, "I want to show the real feelings and tears I have, but I always had to hide my weaknesses," expressing the pressure of portraying a perfect life.

Spears also mentioned her father, with whom she had a long legal battle. In November 2021, by court decision, she was freed from the control and interference of her guardian father and regained her rights and freedom as an adult.

She said, "If I had not been strong, I would have been sent elsewhere for treatment," and "That was when I needed my family the most." She then added to her followers, "I will be as strong as I can and do my best."
