Asghari filed for divorce on the grounds of irreconcilable differences. However, an insider said the actor claims Spears cheated on him with an employee at their Southern California home. The source added that video footage on the property proves Spears was unfaithful.
The “Toxic Pony’ singer hasn’t responded to these allegations. However, when news broke out that she and Asghari had parted ways, Spears shared a weird Instagram post. The singer posted a picture of herself on a horse and said she would soon buy a horse but didn’t know which one to purchase due to many options.

What Has Asghari Said after Filing for Divorce from Spears?
Asghari shared a statement on his Instagram stories announcing that he and Spears had decided to end their journey together after six years of love and commitment. He added that the pair would always hold onto the love and respect they have for each other, “I wish her the best always.”
Asghari believes Spears slept with their male staff. He also claims the singer asked one of the male staff to shoot a video of her while naked.
The actor said asking for privacy seems ridiculous at the moment, so he would just like to ask everyone, including the media, to be kind and thoughtful. Sources close to Asghari have said the actor is revealing details about his relationship with Spears.

An insider revealed that Asghari frequently complained about Spears getting physical with him over their six years together. One time, Spears allegedly gave Asghari a black eye. The two were in several fights, that security would often step in to separate them.
The actor claimed that on one occasion, when he was asleep, Spears went wild and started punching him. Asghari didn’t hit the singer back but was shocked by her behavior. During this time, Asghari was photographed with a black eye and bite marks on his forearm.

Spears also allegedly had a fascination with knives that worried Asghari. When her conservatorship came to an end, those taking care of the singer advised that knives should be kept away from her.
A source said Spears was paranoid that someone would come and get her, so she kept knives everywhere, including the bedroom, as a way to protect herself. With the knives around, Asghari was terrified, especially since Spears had a tendency to fly off the handle.
However, it is the cheating allegations that finally pushed Asghari to file for divorce. The two had a huge fight a few weeks before he filed for divorce when he confronted her about cheating on him.
