A brief history of Sam Asghari and Britney Spears' relationship

Per reports from multiple outlets, Britney met Hesam "Sam" Asghari in October 2016 on the sets of her music video for Slumber Party. The song is part of Britney Spears' ninth studio album, Glory, while its remix version, the one with the music video, also featured vocals from Tinashe.

In a 2018 interview with Men's Health, Sam even recalled getting butterflies before meeting Spears for the first time:

"I was excited that I get to meet one of the biggest artists of all time. I had butterflies."

After their first meeting, the couple reportedly exchanged numbers and bonded over sushi.

The couple got engaged in September 2021, merely five days after the singer's father, Jamie Spears, filed to terminate the court conservatorship under which Britney was involuntarily placed in 2008.

Although her father was suspended as a conservator on September 29, the conservatorship was terminated on November 12. It turned out to be a culmination of the #FreeBritney movement, as the Womanizer artist got her "freedom" back.
