The “Toxic” singer’s new ink comes weeks after she broke her silence on her divorce from husband Sam Asghari.

She addressed their impending divorce in an Instagram post on Aug. 18, writing at the time, “As everyone knows, Hesam and I are no longer together … 6 years is a long time to be with someone, so I’m a little shocked, but … I’m not here to explain why because it’s honestly nobody’s business !!!”

“But I couldn’t bear the pain anymore honestly!!! In a telepathic way, I get so many messages from my friends that it melts my heart and I thank you!!!, Spears continued. “I’ve been strong for too long and my Instagram may seem perfect, but it’s far from reality and I think we all know that!!! I’d love to show my emotions and tears about how I really feel, but for some reason I’ve always had to hide it” your weaknesses!!!”

She added: “If I wasn’t my daddy’s strong soldier, I would have been sent to places to be treated by doctors !!! But that’s when I needed my family the most!!! You should be loved unconditionally… not on conditions!!!!”

PEOPLE confirmed on August 16 that Spears and Asghari, 29, had separated after 14 months of marriage, and the actor filed for divorce the same day.

Despite overcoming a rough patch, Spears is still in “great spirits despite everything going on,” a source told PEOPLE.

“Obviously it’s never easy to go through, but she remains positive and focused on the future,” they added.
