Britney Spears can celebrate her 43rd birthday with the news that she’s now legally a single lady.
Seven months after reaching a divorce settlement with actor Sam Asghari, People magazine reported that the pop star was declared single by a California court on Monday, which also marked her birthday.
Spears and Asghari’s 13-month marriage came to an end in late July 2023 after over six years together.
The “Hacks” actor, whose birth name is Hesam Asghari, officially filed for divorce one month later, citing irreconcilable differences.
The “Baby, One More Time” singer reacted to Asghari’s filing in an August 2023 Instagram post, where she told followers, “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 its honestly nobody’s business !!!” Spears continued. “But, I couldn’t take the pain anymore honestly !!!”
Since then, it appears like Spears has come to embrace the single life.
Back in October, the chart topper celebrated her independence by announcing she had married herself.
“The day I married myself … Bringing it back because it might seem embarrassing or stupid, but I think it’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever done !!!” she captioned an Instagram video of herself wearing a wedding veil and silky off-white dress.
Spears was previously wed to dancer Kevin Federline, with whom she shares sons Sean Preston Federline, 19, and Jayden James Federline, 18.
In 2004, she married childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander in a Las Vegas ceremony, but the union was annulled just 55 hours later.
