Britney Spears shows off diamond ring after revealing engagement to Sam Asghari

Britney Spears has revealed she is engaged to partner Sam Asghari after more than four years together.

The pop superstar, who recently celebrated a legal victory in the conservatorship that controls her life and career, shared a video of her wearing a diamond ring.

She wrote on Instagram: “I can’t f****** believe it,” alongside diamond ring emojis and a love heart.

The video featured an emotional-looking Spears, 39, showing off the ring while Iranian actor and fitness instructor Asghari, 27, asked if she is pleased with it.

“Yes!” Spears replied. She also planted a kiss on his cheek.

The couple met on the set of a music video in 2016. Spears recently praised Asghari for his support during her “hardest years”.

Asghari’s manager, Brandon Cohen, confirmed the engagement to People.

He said in a statement he is “proud to celebrate and confirm the engagement”.

He added: “The couple made their long-standing relationship official today and are deeply touched by the support, dedication and love expressed to them.”

The engagement news comes after Spears’ father, Jamie, petitioned a court in Los Angeles to consider terminating her conservatorship.

The singer’s personal affairs and money have been controlled by a complex legal arrangement since 2008 after she suffered a series of mental breakdowns.

Spears had been demanding the conservatorship be brought to an end and accused her father of being abusive in his role overseeing her estate.

At a hearing in June, Spears alleged it was preventing her from marrying Asghari and starting a family together.
