Britney Spears and Sam Asghari’s relationship could be in trouble, with a new documentary alleging explosive fights between the pair.
Celebrity news outlet TMZ is producing a documentary on the singer, which is set to air in the coming days. In it, multiple sources alleged to the outlet that the couple’s marriage is in “deep trouble” – with claims the singer has reportedly gotten “physical” with her husband.
Sources claimed that Spears, 41, and Asghari, 29, often get into screaming arguments, and their fights have even become so explosive that security has had to intervene, reports the New York Post.
The outlet alleges in the documentary that Asghari does not stay at the couple’s home much anymore.
However, Asghari, who has been a champion for the singer as her conservatorship ended over a year ago, recently went on to his Instagram Stories to slam the TMZ documentary and defend his wife.
“I found it absolutely disgusting that people that were in her life at the time, when she didn’t have a voice, they went and told her story like it was theirs. It was absolutely disgusting,” Asghari said in the video.
“How are you gonna take the most influential person of our generation, the princess of pop, America’s sweetheart, and put her in prison where her father tells her what to do, what water to drink, who to see, and use her as a money-making machine?” he said.
“Then, all the sudden, after 15 years when she’s free, after all those gaslighting and after all those things that went down, how are you gonna put her under a microscope and tell her story? No. That’s also disgusting.”
The Post has contacted reps for Spears and Asghari for comment.
TMZ previously reported that the pop star drinks a lot of caffeinated drinks – allegedly consuming so much that sometimes she stays awake for up to three days.
As well as energy drinks and coffee, Spears reportedly drinks dandelion tea “almost non-stop”.
Spears responded to the caffeine claims on social media, saying that for years under her conservatorship, she was denied coffee, and now she does “what makes me feel most alive and gives me interest”.
“My mind gets busy and sometimes that can be an easy target to mess with,” she captioned the Instagram post. “Anyways, I’m sticking to watermelon juice, which is the weirdest thing ever but I was told for years I can’t have coffee and now that I can it’s my pride.”
Documentary looks at life post-conservatorship
TMZ Investigates: Britney Spears, The Price Of Freedom takes a look at the singer’s life since her conservatorship ended a year-and-a-half ago.
Spears was first put into conservatorship in 2008 by her now-estranged father, Jamie Spears. It wasn’t lifted until November 2021 – 13 years later.
The TV special touches on her relationships with her family and children, her marriage to Asghari, a failed intervention and concerns that those closest to her have observed.
Spears married Kevin Federline in 2004, and had two sons – Sean Preston, now 17, and Jayden James, now 16. She divorced Federline two months after Jayden was born in 2007.
Her relationship with her sons has been fraught since she entered the conservatorship in February 2008 and went through a custody battle, during which time the couple shared their sons 50/50.
Sean and Jayden were noticeably absent from Spears’ wedding to Asghari, which Federline alleged was because they had chosen not to see her.
“Britney Spears has had a year-and-a-half of freedom since the conservatorship ended, but there are big problems,” narrator and TMZ executive producer Harvey Levin said at the beginning of the trailer for the documentary.
Autobiography stalled amid legal concerns
The singer has been the subject of quite a few recent documentaries surrounding her conservatorship and the #FreeBritney movement – although she had no involvement in any of it.
“With four documentaries released about me last year with people I adore speaking about my past,” she wrote in a previously deleted Instagram post, “unfortunately, the way my past was portrayed in those documentaries was extremely embarrassing! It felt semi-illegal!”
Spears is also in the midst of working on an explosive autobiography, but it has reportedly been delayed over concerns among the A-listers mentioned in the book.
Publisher Simon & Schuster has put the memoir, which was originally expected to be released earlier this year, on hold after receiving letters from two of Spears’ famous exes, according to The Sun.
“Britney is brutally honest in the book – there are a lot of nervous A-listers,” a source told the outlet. “Strongly worded legal letters have been sent to the publishers by people who know Britney and who fear what she has written. There is no movement at the moment, and there are concerns over when it will eventually be able to come out.”
