Hours later, the 29-year-old actor and dancer officially filed for divorce, according to ET Online.
They tied the knot on June 9, 2022 – just over a year prior to the filing.
The reason for their impending divorce has yet to be revealed but rumors are circulating that infidelity played a role.
Sam cited “irreconcilable differences” as his reason for ending the relationship, according to TMZ.
He also listed their date of separation as July 28, 2023.
Sources have accused Britney of cheating on Sam, though she has not addressed the buzz to either confirm or deny it.
An insider told ET Online earlier on Wednesday: “Britney and Sam have split. She’s adamant she didn’t cheat. The two haven’t got along for a while and it finally came to an end after a major blowup.”
Neither Britney nor Sam has publicly addressed their breakup.
The Louisiana native resurfaced on Instagram late Wednesday night after a two-day hiatus to share an odd post.
She posted a pic of her riding a horse on a beach, writing in the caption: “Buying a horse soon!!! So many options it’s kind hard!!!
“A horse called Sophie and another called Roar??? I can’t make up my mind!!!”
Britney went on: “Should I join the camaraderie and put a pink cowboy had on??? Either way I think I found my sweet spot with Roar!!!”
Rumors had been swirling for weeks prior to the split news with eagle-eyed fans spotting “clues” all over social media that the Circus singer and her Black Monday actor beau had called it quits.
The couple was last seen together on a trip to Cabo, Mexico during which they each appeared unhappy.
SAM’S TERMS
While the filing is fresh, it looks like Britney and Sam’s divorce may get ugly.
TMZ reported that Sam is asking for spousal support from Britney and asking that she cover his attorney’s fees.
His lawyer, Neal Hersh, has suggested that Sam may contest his and Britney’s current prenup.
The document maintains Britney’s assets as separate property, not marital assets.
His recent divorce filing, however, states: “[Sam] has yet to determine the full nature and extent of the separate property and assets and obligations of each party.”
It also says: “There are various items of community and quasi-community assets and debts, the full nature and extent of which are unknown to [Sam] at this time.”
The actor is said to be seeking a massive payout from the award-winning musician, according to Page Six.
A source told the outlet that Sam is “attempting to negotiate concessions beyond his prenup and threatening to go public with extraordinarily embarrassing information about Britney unless he gets paid.”
They added: “So that’s what Sam is focused on.”
It has yet to be revealed how much the Family Business actor is seeking or whether their current prenup permits disclosures of negative information.
A separate insider told Page Six that Britney’s team has “protected” her and that the “parting will be respectful.”
That same source added: “It’s blackmail and it’ll never happen.”
Britney has retained high-power attorney Laura Wasser, according to Variety.
She will also continue working with Mathew Rosengart – her powerhouse lawyer, known for getting her out of her conservatorship.
Sam and Britney signed a prenup leading up to their wedding.
The music video performer confirmed that he and his then bride-to-be were signing “an iron-clad prenup” in September 2021 – shortly after they got engaged.
He wrote on his Instagram at the time: “Thank you everyone who is concerned about the prenup!”
The fitness professional then joked that they’d “of course” have an “ironclad prenup” because he needs to make sure “to protect my jeep and shoe collection in case she dumps me one day.”
BRIT’S BIG DAY
Britney and Sam were married in a star-studded ceremony in Los Angeles in 2022.
The bride walked down the aisle in a custom Versace dress in a gorgeous backyard wedding attended by the couple’s famous friends including Drew Barrymore, Madonna, and Selena Gomez.
Britney’s ex-husband Jason Alexander gatecrashed the event, held at her home – and was detained by cops on the scene.
Despite the drama, the mom of two was all smiles as she stepped out donning a classic white Versace gown, paired with jewelry by Stephanie Gottlieb and makeup by Charlotte Tilbury.
An eyewitness at the extravagant affair exclusively told The Sun at the time that the princess of pop entered her wedding ceremony in a horse-drawn carriage.
She walked down the aisle to the Elvis Presley classic, I Can’t Help Falling In Love With You, an insider revealed.
Following the ceremony and reception, a white Rolls Royce was present at the scene to whisk the couple away.
