Britney Spears Describes Marriage to Sam Asghari as Distraction Amid 3-Year Sons Estrangement

Britney Spears opened up on Instagram about the emotional pain she endured during the three years she was estranged from her two sons, describing those as the hardest years of her life. She revealed that during that time, she was cut off from contacting her children, and her brief marriage to Sam Asghari felt like a "fake distraction" to help cope with the separation. Spears expressed that she is now healing, symbolized by her renewed hunger and appreciation for food, which she sees as a form of reclaiming her body and power. She reflected on the abuse and trauma she experienced at home, despite loving it, and emphasized her journey toward self-ownership and healing. Spears and Asghari married in 2022 but divorced in 2024, and she shares her two adult sons with ex-husband Kevin Federline. Throughout her posts, Spears has been candid about her struggles with self-love, confidence, and emotional balance.
