Britney Spears’ soon to be ex-husband, Sam Asghari, may have to grapple with the possibility of losing out on a substantial sum of money due to a glaring clause in their prenuptial agreement.
Despite being married for only 14 months, Sam’s hope of securing a multi-million dollar payout, as stipulated in their prenup, could be dashed.
The agreement, which according to reports promised him an estimated £785,000 ($1 million) for every two years of marriage, now seems impractical given the short duration of their union.
Sam broke his silence on their split on Thursday, posting to his Instagram, “’After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together.”
“We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always. ‘S**t happens,” Sam continued.

While the prenup denies Sam any spousal support, a crucial confidentiality clause within the agreement could hold the key to a resolution.
Reports suggest although he might not be eligible for a substantial monetary payout, there’s a potential avenue for a one-time payment from Britney.
This payment would serve to secure Sam’s commitment to silence about the intimate details of their relationship, preventing any potentially embarrassing revelations.
At one point, TMZ claimed Sam threatened to expose ‘extraordinarily embarrassing’ information about the Toxic singer as part of the split row.
However, amid speculation Sam might contest the prenup to seek spousal support, his representative Brandon Cohen has categorically denied such intentions.
Cohen emphasized Sam holds no negative intentions towards Britney and has always supported her.
This controversy sheds light on the complexity of navigating legal and emotional intricacies in high-profile divorces, where not only financial assets but also personal details come under scrutiny.
Britney and Sam’s divorce saga has revealed a series of startling revelations about their tumultuous relationship.
Allegations of infidelity, physical altercations, and Britney’s erratic behaviour have come to the forefront as some of the reasons behind the divorce filing.
Sam filed for divorce, citing “irreconcilable differences,” while sources claim Sam had gone into the marriage thinking he could ‘save’ Britney, only realizing after “13 months of marriage that here may well be no chance of ever saving Britney.
The singer has now broken her silence on the divorce reports, admitting she is “shocked” by the decision.
