Britney Spears is addressing the news in a new social media post that she and her husband, Hesam “Sam” Asghari have split. Although the news has been circulating for a few days, it’s the first time Britney has released a statement confirming the situation.
She wrote a post on Instagram and turned off the comments.
In Britney fashion, her Instagram message addressing her split from Sam was written in her typical style, which includes lots of exclamation marks and reads more like a stream of thoughts.
“As everyone knows, Hesam and I are no longer together,” she began her message, which included a video of her dancing.
“6 years is a long time to be with someone so, I’m a little shocked,” the message continued, “but … I’m not here to explain why because its honestly nobody’s business !!!"
She then thanked her fans, kind of, for their support.
“But, I couldn’t take the pain anymore honestly !!! In some sort of telepathic way I have been receiving so many messages that melt my heart from friends and I thank you !!!,” Britney continued.
"I’ve been playing it strong for way too long and my Instagram may seem perfect but it’s far from reality and I think we all know that !!!”
She added, “I would love to show my emotions and tears on how I really feel but some reason I’ve always had to hide my weaknesses !!!"
"If I wasn’t my dad’s strong soldier, I would be sent away to places to get fixed by doctors !!! But that’s when I needed family the most !!! You’re supposed to be loved unconditionally … not under conditions !!!!"
Spears concluded the post by writing how she will be "as strong as I can and do my best !!! And I’m actually doing pretty d— good !!! Anyways have a good day and don’t forget to smile !!!"
There’s been drama between Britney’s ex and dad of her kids, Kevin Federline, and Sam over the years, so of course Federline had something to say.
Well, at least through his lawyer he had something to say. According to US Magazine, Federline is hoping things work out for Britney.
“He just hopes that they work it out,” Federline’s longtime attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan told the magazine on August 18.
“The media is a heavy focus on this one and he just hopes that everything works out for the best, whether that’s being together or not being together.”
Through it all, Britney is said to be doing OK and focusing on herself.
A source told People that Britney is “in great spirits despite everything going on. “Obviously its never an easy thing to go through, but she’s remaining positive and focusing on the future."
Britney “is focused on her book release, has an upcoming writers’ camp and is getting songs from some big artists,” the source shared.
“Ideally she would love to do a new record soon, and maybe a powerful song for the book’s release.”
