Yahoo Lifestyle Sam Asghari Reveals “Most Difficult” Part of His Marriage With Britney Spears
Sam Asghari may have been legally obligated to refrain from talking about his ex-wife Britney Spears on season 3 of The Traitors...but he just opened up about how their marriage was a "crash course in Hollywood" in a recent interview. During an appearance on Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson's Sibling Revelry podcast, Sam got candid about married life with the pop pioneer.
When he got romantically involved with Britney in 2016, Sam thought her colossal levels of fame would be the hardest thing to get used to—that is, until he realized she had been in a conservatorship since 2008.
“One day I start learning about what the conservatorship is, and that’s when I was like, ‘Wait a minute. I thought I’m in America. What do you mean someone over the age of 18 needs permission from their parents?'” Sam explained to the Hudsons, adding, “That was the most difficult and weird spiral thing that I’ve witnessed in my life.”
Sam also shared how he supported Britney when they were together, saying he had to handle everything gently. "I think the best thing to do is to provide support in that moment and that’s what I did, I provided as much as I could," he said.
He continued, seemingly referring to Britney's father, Jamie Spears, and his position as her conservator. "One of the hardest things, I think, to deal with when you go into entertainment is your parents and the people around you, and everything that happens, and everybody that comes into your life that’s taken advantage," Sam added. "That damages you, because those are the people that are closest to you. Usually, the people that are around you, the people that you allow into your circle, you kind of are vulnerable to them."
Though he and Britney split after being married for 14 months, Sam shared nothing but well wishes for the hitmaker and revealed that he's “always gonna be grateful and happy” to have played a role in her life. “It was so much that we gone through so much as a couple,” he gushed. “We learned so much and it was a beautiful experience.”
