Sam Asghari scathingly brands Kevin Federline a ‘professional father‘
Sam Asghari has scathingly branded Kevin Federline a 'professional father'. The model, 31, made the biting remark about his former wife Britney Spears' ex, who has two children with the pop star, when asked for his thoughts on the release of DJ Kevin's forthcoming memoir, You Thought You Knew. In a video shared by TMZ, Sam says when asked about the autobiography, which promises to delve into Federline's marriage to Britney and his experiences as a dad: 'Well, he was a professional father.' Sam added: 'It would be the first book that'll tell you how to be a professional father.' The remark was made while Asghari was leaving The Abbey, a popular venue in West Hollywood. Kevin, 47, who was married to Britney, 43, from 2004 to 2007, announced earlier this month his memoir was on its way. He describes the book as 'extremely intimate and transparent,' aiming to provide insight into his rise to fame, the challenges of fatherhood and the emotional toll of public life. In a press release, Kevin stated: 'I achieved my biggest dreams, dealt with crushing heartbreak, and endured constant ridicule, all while becoming the father my children needed as they experienced nonstop emotional turbulence.' The memoir is set for release on October 21, 2025. Kevin has two sons with Spears: Sean Preston, 19, and Jayden James, 18. Following his divorce from Britney, the former back-up dancer gained custody of the children and received $20,000 per month in child support until they turned 18. He later remarried, to Victoria Prince, with whom he has two daughters, Jordan Kay, 12, and Peyton Marie, nine. Kevin also has two older children, Kori Madison, 21, and Kaleb Michael Jackson, 19, from his previous relationship with actress Shar Jackson. Sam and Britney met while filming the music video for her 2016 hit Slumber Party, and began dating shortly after. They got engaged in 2021 and married in June 2022. But their marriage ended in divorce in 2024 following a miscarriage in 2022. Sam is currently in a relationship with realtor Brooke Irvine. Despite their separation, Asghari has expressed support for Spears. In January, he told Page Six: 'I think that the number one factor of a partner is to be there for one another, no matter what.'

Asghari has publicly shown his affection for his ex-wife despite their failed marriage, even supporting her during the drama surrounding her conservatorship. Although Asghari is currently seeing actress Brooke Irvine, his recent comments reveal that he still harbors protective feelings and loyalty to Spears.

Britney Spears Posted A Fiery Message About Her Exes
Britney Spears was serious when she said "Don't you know that you're toxic?" in 2003. Now, two years after Britney and Sam Asghari's divorce, after only 14 months of marriage, she shared a now-deleted message about two unspecified exes on social media while expressing her ability to connect with animals. "I'm so turned off by humanity and the way people have literally … I have no words !!!" Britney began in the June 10 post. "I dated two fucking complete assholes," she said, noting she had an "extremely shady week." "I realized I loved their dogs more than them and I think it's because their dogs bowed to me every time I entered the room!!!" "Now the guys were of course cruel humans that never even acknowledged me and never held my hand in the car for 6 years !!!" Britney added. "I choose animals over people anyday!!!" Britney's had several high-profile relationships over the years, most notably with Justin Timberlake from 1999—2002. Then, she married her backup dancer, Kevin Federline, with whom she shares two sons, Sean Preston, 19, and Jayden, 18. They divorced in 2007. In 2016, Britney met Sam Asghari on the music video set for "Slumber Party," and they were married in June 2022. In August 2023, Sam filed for divorce. On a June 2 episode of the Trading Secrets podcast with Bachelor alum Jason Tartick, Sam spoke about his divorce from Britney, saying he "wanted her to have a prenup." "I wanted to make sure she's protected, because throughout her life, everybody—I don't know one person that's ever been in her life that didn't take advantage of her," Sam continued. "It's very sad. I wanted to make sure that I'm the person that don't do that." Sam said he doesn't get mad at the fans or the public for their speculation about his relationship with Britney. "Looking from an outside perspective," Sam added. "I see there's an age difference, there's a fame difference, there's this, there's that. But realistically, we met as costars." While it's not clear if Sam's recent podcast appearance triggered Britney's response or which exes she was talking about, someone was toxic, and she doesn't want a taste of that poison paradise anymore.

Sam Asghari insists he had to 'work harder' as an actor because of Britney Spears marriage
Sam Asghari has insisted he had to "work harder to prove himself" after marrying Britney Spears. The 31-year-old model and actor met his ex on the set of her 'Slumber Party' music video in 2016, and they tied the knot six years later, before separating in August 2023 and finalising their divorce in May 2024. Speaking to 'Page Six Radio', he said he "absolutely [had] to work harder to prove myself.' He was also working as a waiter and for his own Asghari Fitness brand, with some casting agents seeing him as a "cheesy trainer". He added: ''Oh, and he's associated with a pop star, which is also cheesy as well.' Or 'can we see him as a character?' There was that line as well." However, Sam acknowledged that there were advantages to being in a high profile romance with the 'Toxic' pop star. He said: 'I can't sit here and lie and say, 'It wasn't good for me'. "When you're in such a public relationship ... it sort of gave me that platform for who I am.' However, he recently rubbished the suggestion that he tried to take advantage of Britney's fame and success. Sam told the 'Trading Secrets' podcast: "I never get mad at the general public or fans or people that are seeing your life from a distance, especially now that I'm not in a relationship for over two years or a year and something. "Looking from an outside perspective, I see there's an age difference, there's a fame difference, there's this, there's that. But realistically, we met as co-stars." Despite this, Sam insists he's not worried about the opinions of fans. He explained: "It's all for me. So it's not really focused on the fans or whoever … My career is always going to be, I'm always going to do things that's going to benefit the fans and people that are watching me. And I want to be a good example. But at the same time, it's because that makes me feel better."

Sam Asghari wanted a prenup before marrying Britney Spears
Sam Asghari wanted to sign a prenuptial agreement before marrying Britney Spears. The 31-year-old actor and Britney, 43, were married between 2022 and 2024, but Sam urged his former spouse to agree a prenup so that she would be financially "protected". Sam - who ultimately signed a prenup before tying the knot - said on the 'Trading Secrets' podcast: "I wanted her to have a prenup. "I wanted to make sure she's protected, because throughout her life, everybody — I don't know one person that's ever been in her life that didn't take advantage of her. So it's very sad. I wanted to make sure that I'm the person that [didn't] do that." Sam also rubbished the suggestion that he tried to take advantage of Britney's fame and success. Sam - who met Britney on the set of her 'Slumber Party' music video back in 2016 - said: "I never get mad at the general public or fans or people that are seeing your life from a distance, especially now that I'm not in a relationship for over two years or a year and something. "Looking from an outside perspective, I see there's an age difference, there's a fame difference, there's this, there's that. But realistically, we met as costars." Despite this, Sam insists he's not worried about the opinions of fans. He explained: "It's all for me. So it's not really focused on the fans or whoever … My career is always going to be, I'm always going to do things that's going to benefit the fans and people that are watching me. And I want to be a good example. But at the same time, it's because that makes me feel better." Sam actually rejected a lot of lucrative career opportunities because he wanted to protect Britney and their relationship. The actor explained: "I turned down a few modelling things back then. "It was because it was associated with women and I wanted to be respectful. It was a very sensitive time and a very sensitive situation I was dealing with. So I wanted to be very successful and things like that. So that was at that time. Now, it's different."
