AceShowbiz - Sam Asghari feels "very proud" of Britney Spears for writing her memoir. The 29-year-old actor separated from pop superstar Britney - who regained control of multimillion-dollar fortune and various aspects of her life after a conservatorship that was governed by her family was terminated in November 2021 - in July after just over a year of marriage and now that she is set to release bombshell autobiography "The Woman in Me", he has admitted that he has already read it.
"I already read it. I'm very proud of her. She put a lot of work into it, and it was very hard. I'm definitely excited and I'm extremely proud of her. It was a really tough one ... I'll be the first one in line to buy it," he told TMZ.
Earlier this year, an insider explained that Sam was "thrilled" that his estranged wife had finally had the chance to put her story on paper and think s it will be an opportunity for her to address things she has been unable to do until now.
A source told Entertainment Tonight, "Sam is thrilled that Britney finally has the opportunity and freedom to speak her truth with her book. He sees it as an opportunity for Britney to open up about what she has felt the need to address for far too long without being silenced or filtered."
Britney is the third member of her family to release a tome telling the story of her rise to fame, with her mother Lynne Spears penning "Through the Storm: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World" in 2008 and her younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears having published "Things I Should Have Said" in 2022.
Britney said in a message alongside the cover reveal of the book, "It's coming. My story. On my terms. At Last. Are you ready? On sale 10.24.23."
