Britney Spears addressed her split from her husband, Sam Asghari in an Instagram post.
The entertainer posted a dance video to her Instagram on Friday night, and in the caption, she wrote, “As everyone knows, Hesam and I are no longer together,” using her husband’s formal name.
Spears continued “6 years is a long time to be with someone so, I’m a little shocked but … I’m not here to explain why because its honestly nobody’s business!”
“But, I couldn’t take the pain anymore honestly,” she continued, later adding, “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 !!! 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,” she wrote, adding, “You’re supposed to be loved unconditionally … not under conditions!”
Spears assured followers she “will be as strong as I can and do my best!”

They married in June of 2022, seven months after the court-ordered conservatorship Spears had been under for 13 years was ended by a Los Angeles judge in November 2021.
Asghari filed a petition to end the marriage with the Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday, citing “irreconcilable differences,”
