Britney Spears and Sam Asghari Agree to Divorce

Britney Spears helped settle their divorce Sam Asghari …and this is almost a year after Sam requested to pull the plug… TMZ has learned.

Britney and Sam filed a preliminary judgment along with their response to Sam’s divorce petition filed by her attorney, Disso Queen Laura Water. The judge should give his approval soon, and when that happens, the marriage is officially history.

As we reported, Britney and Sam have a marriage that leaves Sam with next to nothing. TMZ broke the story that Britney paid Sam’s rent on his new apartment. Although we previously reported that she planned to write him a six-figure check, we don’t know if that happened.

Sam filed a lawsuit back in August — 14 months after they tied the knot at their Thousand Oaks home — citing “irreconcilable differences.”

There were rumors from Sam’s lawyer, Neal Hershthat the fitness trainer would challenge the marriage preparation, but that didn’t happen.

As for why the marriage collapsed, sources told us that Sam believed Britney was cheating on him with a co-worker at her house… and there was footage of them in a compromising position.

We’re also told that Britney struggled physically with Sam during their time together… and at one point Brit freaked out and started hitting him while he was in his bed. Around the same time as this alleged incident, Sam was discovered with a black eye and bite marks on his arm.

After the divorce drama, Britney released her memoir The Woman in Me… and surprisingly, there were no negative comments about Sam anywhere.

Britney opened up on Instagram in December: “It’s so strange being single. I’ve had a lot of time to really look back at all the good and the bad. I’ve noticed that I don’t talk to myself very well. “Overall, I’m easily manipulated and wear my heart on my sleeve.”

By the way, Sam did a photo shoot with PETA in December in which he apparently grappled a bit with his failed relationship with Britney – the pictures of him with dogs are captioned: “Some loves last… Never buy dogs, leave them.” always castrate them.” castrate them.”

In the meantime…Sam is looking fit and fit and living his best life in the gym after getting his bachelor’s degree.
