Britney Spears' ex-husband, Sam Asghari, has gone official with his new girlfriend months after their divorce.
American model and actor Sam, 30, married Britney, 43, back in June 2022 with celebrations at her home in Thousand Oaks, California, with celebrities such as Paris Hilton, Selena Gomez and Drew Barrymore in attendance, but called it quits just 14 months later.
Now, the reasoning behind the couple's unexpected split was met with mass speculation, with it all happening prior to the release of Britney's tell-all memoir The Woman in Me - which Sam has previously shared his 'honest' opinion on.

Sam later released a statement on their split, claiming that he and Britney would 'hold onto the love and respect we have for each other'.
He added: "S**t happens. Asking for privacy seems rediculous [sic] so I will just ask for everyone including the media to be kind and thoughtful."
He also implied that their divorce, which was finalised in May 2024, was significantly more amicable than news outlets first alleged.
In an interview with People, he spoke highly of their romance: "It was a blessing to be able to share life with someone for a long time. And people grow apart and people move on."
He went on: "I've always hated people leaving a certain relationship - and at some point they told each other they love each other and they sat at the same table and ate food [together] - so I never understood when people part ways [and] they talk badly about each other."
Claiming he'd 'never' speak ill of his now-ex, Sam continued: "I had nothing but an amazing experience and a great life, and that's always going to be part of my life, a chapter of my life."
Sam has recently taken to Instagram to share a series of snaps alongside his rumoured new girlfriend, Brooke Irvine.
He shared five snaps as part of the New Year photodump - all of which feature Brooke - along with the caption: "Happy New Year to All."
Sam was Britney's third husband after having married childhood friend, Jason Alexander, before it was annulled after 55 hours.
Her second marriage was to former dancer, Kevin Federline, with whom she shares two sons named Jayden James and Sean Preston.
Then, last year, the 'Everytime' singer announced that she had got hitched for a fourth time, but in this instance, had decided to to marry 'herself'.
