Sam Asghari has broken his silence over rumours that he and Britney Spears have split up.
The pair tied the knot last summer, but fans of the popstar became concerned when the pair were spotted without their wedding rings.
Suspicions were further raised when they saw that the 'Toxic' singer was enjoying a holiday with her manager Cade Hudson, while her hubby had been left behind.
Unsurprisingly, fans quickly put two and two together, and decided that this must mean the couple have gone their separate ways after less than a year of marriage.

But it looks like Asghari has now had his say on what was going on, taking to Instagram to respond to rumours of their apparent split.
Posing in the gym, the 29-year-old appeared to make it pretty clear that the couple were still very much together.
Holding a bar bell, the actor was seen with his wedding ring back on his finger, while another showed him raising his wedding ring finger to his face.
And if that wasn't clear enough, a representative for Asghari has now come out and given a statement on the matter.
Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, the spokesperson said: "Sam is not having marital issues. He simply took off his ring because he is filming a movie."
Tyla has contacted Spears' reps for comment.
This comes after Spears raised a few concerns after she posted a video to her Instagram account in February where she seemed to be speaking in an Australian accent.
The singer was sharing a short video with her fans showing off a few dresses that she’d been sent and one she'd made herself, but a lot of people picked up on the fact that she seemed to have a bit of an unusual twang to her accent, almost as if she was putting on an Aussie accent.
But why would she do that? Who knows.
The 41-year-old then confused – and slightly worried – fans further by stopping dancing around during the typically energetic video to ask fans not to get in touch with the authorities if she ever decides to get rid of her account on Insta.
Speaking directly to her viewers, Spears said: “So, guys, I just want you to know, if I shutdown my Instagram do not call the cops.”
Even stranger, she then ran across the screen twice shouting: "Never be a roller coaster!"
If it was anyone else, it might not seem that bizarre, but Britney has been the subject of welfare concerns in the past after deleting her various social media accounts.
One wrote: “Why Britney Spears sound Australian in her last insta post?”
While another commented: “Why is Britney Spears talking in an Australian accent?"
While no official reason has come out from Spears' camp as to what was going on, I doubt it's much to worry about.
Don't read too much into everything, guys.
