Britney Spears’ Boyfriend Sam Asghari Says He Wants “to Be a Young Dad”
The 27-year-old Iranian-born actor, model and personal trainer has been dating the 39-year-old pop star for more than four years. In an interview with Forbes, published on Saturday, March 6, Sam spoke about his hopes for his career and personal life.
“My priorities in life are to remain humble and understand where I came from and where I’m going. I want to take my career to the next step when it comes to acting. I want to take my relationship to the next step, as well,” Sam told Forbes. “I don’t mind becoming a father. I want to be a young dad.”
Britney, who shares sons Sean Preston, 15, and Jayden James, 14, with ex-husband Kevin Federline, has not commented on Sam’s remarks.
Sam, who stars on the BET+ series Family Business, and Britney met in 2016 on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video.
Sam has supported Britney throughout her difficult times, including during her stay at a mental health treatment center in 2019 following her cancelation of a Las Vegas concert residency. He has also been there for the pop star amid her lengthy legal battle to remove her father, Jamie Spears, from his role of co-conservator.
Britney’s dad has controlled her business and personal affairs under a conservatorship issued by a court in 2008, soon after the “Toxic” singer was hospitalized for psychiatric treatment. Her turmoil and court case are detailed in the recently released controversial Hulu and FX documentary Framing Britney Spears, which also highlights the growing #FreeBritney movement.
