Britney Spears’ new memoir The Woman In Me has sparked a reaction from her ex-husband Sam Asghari after she branded him a “gift from God”.
Sam, who split from Britney in August this year after just 14 months of marriage, has now broken his silence after the release of her bombshell book. Sam said on Thursday (October 26): “That made me smile to be honest, I am freaking proud of her and I hope she takes over the world.”
Britney penned of Sam in the memoir: “I have an appreciation for how stable he is. I love that he doesn’t even drink. The chemistry with us in the beginning was insane. We couldn’t keep our hands off each other.”

The Toxic songstress said Sam “squeezed her hand” as a show of support during her conservatorship court hearing in June 2021, and says she “looks up to him”. She wrote: “I look up to him — his consistency with working out and being a good man and being healthy and taking care of me and helping me learn how we can take care of each other. He’s such an inspiration and I’m grateful.”

Sam was quizzed by TMZ about the book, but would only say: “I’m very proud of her and, you know, she put a lot of work to it, and it was very hard so I’m definitely excited and I’m extremely proud of her.”
An “iron-clad” prenup agreement, however, means Sam won’t receive any of the profits from Brit’s new book, after citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the pair splitting. He’s asking for spousal support from the Womanizer hitmaker, however, and coverage of his legal fees.
Plenty of bombshell revelations came out of the singer’s memoir, including that she had an abortion at home when she fell pregnant with Justin Timberlake’s baby. She was in “agonising” pain after taking the medication to terminate her pregnancy at home, suffering “excruciating cramps” while lying on the bathroom floor.
Justin was at her side, playing his guitar for her while she cried – but the experience “messed Britney up” and branded the incident a “tragedy”. Justin allegedly thought the abortion would be “their secret”, with a source telling Daily Mail: “Justin thought that the decision that they made was a decision made together and he intended to never talk about it and for it to be kept their secret forever.”

She also discussed her romp with Hollywood star Colin Farrell, describing their “passionate” fling as a “brawl”: “Brawl is the only word for it—we were all over each other, grappling so passionately it was like we were in a street fight.”
She added: “As I had before when I’d felt too attached to a man, I tried to convince myself in every way that it was not a big deal, that we were just having fun, that in this case, I was vulnerable because I wasn’t over Justin yet.”
