AceShowbiz - When it comes to the fast-paced, often tumultuous world of pop stardom, Britney Spears has experienced her fair share of highs and lows. Yet, amid the whirlwind, one constant has been the unwavering support of her ex-husband Sam Asghari.
The actor has come to the singer's defense after she was mocked over her reaction to Sabrina Carpenter's 2024 MTV Video Music Awards performance. After Spears, 42, posted an Instagram video reacting to Carpenter's performance, social media influencer Michael Pavano mocked her in a reenactment video. Asghari took to social media to criticize Pavano's actions, writing, "Not cool."
Asghari has been a vocal supporter of Spears since their divorce in May 2024. The couple began dating in 2016 and married in June 2022, but Asghari filed for divorce in August 2023. Despite their separation, Asghari has expressed his continued support for Spears.
In May 2023, when Spears became the subject of the TMZ documentary "Britney Spears: The Price of Freedom", Asghari publicly denounced the film. He accused former members of Spears' inner circle of exploiting her story after she regained her freedom from a 13-year conservatorship.
Asghari proposed to Spears in September 2021 after five years of dating. Even after filing for divorce, Asghari's representative stated that he "has always and will always support" the singer.
