Asghari, 29, filed divorce papers Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences. A fitness model and actor, Asghari met the now-41-year-old singer in 2016 while appearing in her music video for "Slumber Party."
Their relationship endured while Spears fought a highly publicized battle to extricate herself from a conservatorship that had overseen her personal and financial affairs for more than a decade.
Asghari publicly supported her efforts, and Spears even argued during the fight that one of the reasons she wanted to exit the conservatorship was so she could get married and possibly have another child.
With the conservatorship eventually lifted, the couple were married in June 2022. They did not have any children.
According to the divorce filing, the couple separated on July 28. There's been no public comment from Spears.
Reports of the split began circulating Wednesday. TMZ reported that the couple had a fight in which Asghari alleged infidelity by the singer. According to the website, the pair had frequent arguments in recent months.
TMZ also noted that the pair signed a prenuptial agreement to protect her assets. Asghari's divorce papers state that he will be seeking spousal support from Spears.
The union was the third for Spears, who was married for less than three days in 2004 to childhood friend Jason Alexander -- not the Jason Alexander of "Seinfeld" fame -- and for nearly four years to Kevin Federline, with whom she had two boys, Sean Preston, 17, and Jayden James, 16.
