Britney Spears and Sam Asghari recently revealed their engagement, which has elicited a lot of excitement among fans. After more than four years of dating, the couple became engaged, and Britney expressed her joy in a romantic Instagram post. Mayra Verónica, Asghari’s ex, reportedly received the news, telling TMZ that they both ‘hit the jackpot.’

Mayra responded to TMZ’s question about how she feels about Britney and Sam’s engagement by saying, “I’m in excellent shape. I am ecstatic for them. He had a lucky break! She, too, had a lucky break.” She continued by gushing about Sam and praising his demeanor, saying, “He’s incredibly helpful. He’s a wonderful, really supportive guy, which is exactly what she needs after all the s–t she’s been through”, as reported by TMZ.

Britney Spears, who has been in conservatorship for the past 13 years, has been fighting to have it lifted in court. Throughout those trying years, the pop star has stated that Sam has been her rock and has stood by her side during her “hardest years.” Sam has also demonstrated his support for Spears in the past, wearing a Free Britney t-shirt to cheer her on during her first court appearance. He is also renowned for referring to Spears as a ‘lioness,’ a reference to her powerful spirit.

Britney and Sam met on the set of her 2016 music video for Slumber Party and have been friends ever since. Spears recently testified in the conservatorship lawsuit about her desire for regular life, as well as her feelings about getting married and having a child.
