A look at Britney Spears' career
After her 14-year long conservatorship ended in 2021, it's unclear if the 'Princess of Pop' will ever resume making music.
LOS ANGELES - Britney Spears and her husband Sam Asghari have reportedly decided to part ways after one year of marriage, multiple sources have confirmed.
Asghari, 29, filed a petition to dissolve his 14-month-old marriage to the 41-year-old pop superstar in Los Angeles County court late Wednesday. He is seeking spousal support and attorneys' fees in their divorce, according to his divorce filing.
Like the vast majority of those who file for divorce in California, he cites irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split, according to the Associated Press. It also says he will try to get financial support from her while blocking her from getting any from him. And it seeks to have her pay for his divorce lawyers.
The document lists the couple’s separation date as July 28, though reports of the split did not emerge until Wednesday.

TMZ was the first news outlet to confirm the news, claiming the couple separated after an argument that involved "allegations of cheating" and were "headed for divorce."
TMZ said their sources claim Asghari confronted Spears over rumors she stepped out on him. Their source also said Asghari has moved out of their house and is now living in a place of his own.
As one of their sources put it, "It's only a matter of time before Sam files for divorce."
