Prenup would ‘protect my jeep and shoe collection,’ jokes Brit’s fiancé Asghari

- BY NELSON OLIVEIRA

Britney Spears’ longtime partner and now-fiancé Sam Asghari isn’t bothered by the number of fans begging his future wife to get a prenuptial agreement following their engagement announceme­nt Sunday. In fact, he welcomes it. “Thank you everyone who is concerned about the prenup!” he wrote on Instagram as he joked about who would benefit the most from the document. “Of course we’re getting [an] iron clad prenup to protect my jeep and shoe collection (in case) she dumps me one day.”

The witty disclaimer came shortly after Spears shared an Instagram video showing off a diamond ring on her finger with the caption, “I can’t f——-g believe it.” The post drew more than 3 million likes and about 100,000 comments, many by fans advising the wealthy singer to protect her assets.

Even fellow celebritie­s joined the chorus.

“Make him sign a prenup,” Oscar-winning actress Octavia Spencer wrote.

Asghari, again showing his sense of humor, replied to Spencer with a “100” emoji.

The prenup suggestion­s follow Spears’ highly publicized court battle to end her father’s longtime conservato­rship, which allowed him to control her life and finances for more than a decade. After months of court hearings and emotional testimonie­s, Jamie Spears filed a motion last week asking to end the conservato­rship.

“If Ms. Spears wants to terminate the conservato­rship and believes that she can handle her own life, Mr. Spears believes that she should get that chance,” his lawyers said in the petition filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The 39-year-old mother of two met her future husband on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video in 2016. Asghari, 27, is an actor and personal trainer.
