The signs point to a reconciliatory end: the marriage of Britney Spears (41) and Sam Asghari (29) will soon be history. According to TMZ, the ex-couple are said to have agreed on divorce issues and will soon sign the papers. According to sources from the US celebrity portal, the two are now apparently on friendly terms with each other.

The fitness expert is currently said to be living in an apartment in L.A. with a monthly rent of around $10,000 (around 9,100 euros), which he moved into after the separation and which, according to “TMZ”, is apparently financed by Britney Spears. In order to finalize the divorce, the singer will soon pay her husband a low six-figure sum.

At first it seemed that the divorce could turn into a war of the roses. It was reported that the two only speak through their lawyers and have left “all communication, negotiations and all other matters” to the legal teams. There were also many rumors. There was talk of an affair in the speculation and it was also said that Asghari allegedly wanted to challenge the marriage contract. During their relationship, he often defended his famous wife and supported her in the fight against her father’s guardianship.

In mid-August it was announced that the couple had separated after six years of dating. Asghari filed for divorce after just 14 months of marriage. The singer then posted that she was “a little shocked.” This is Spears’ third failed marriage. In 2004 she was married to her childhood friend Jason Alexander (41) for 55 hours and from 2004 to 2007 to Kevin Federline (45), with whom she has her sons Sean Preston (18) and Jayden James (17).
