Britney Spears seen without her wedding ring in first pics since split from Sam Asghari

Britney Spears was spotted without her wedding ring just hours after news broke about her split from husband Sam Asghari.

The “Toxic” singer was photographed driving her white Mercedes-Benz in Los Angeles Wednesday — with her bare left hand clearly visible on top of the steering wheel.

Along with her naked ring finger, Spears donned a couple bracelets and a pair of pink-tinted sunglasses for the outing.

While it’s not uncommon for the pop star to ditch her four-carat sparkler, she appeared a bit downcast during the drive.

As it turns out, Asghari also recently removed his wedding ring. He was photographed without the symbolic band last month.

Earlier in the day, Page Six confirmed that Spears, 41, and the Iranian-born actor, 29, had called it quits after one year of marriage.

In fact, sources told TMZ that Asghari had already moved out of their shared home in Thousand Oaks, Calif., following an explosive fight regarding Spears’ alleged infidelity.

While it’s unclear whether there was any validity to his suspicions, an insider told TMZ that “it’s only a matter of time before Sam files for divorce.”

Prior to their June 2022 nuptials, a source told Page Six the pair signed an iron-clad prenup — which Asghari is supposedly trying to renegotiate.

While the prenuptial agreement was drawn in Spears’ “favor” financially, insiders told us that the “Family Business” actor wants his estranged wife to cough up some cash in exchange for his silence.

A source said that Asghari is “attempting to negotiate concessions beyond his prenup and threatening to go public with extraordinarily embarrassing information about Britney unless he gets paid.”

While it’s unclear how much money he’s after, the insider noted that a hefty pay day is all Asghari is “focused on” right now.

However, a separate source noted that Spears’ team has “protected” her and that “parting will be respectful.”

“It’s blackmail and it’ll never happen,” the second insider added.

But just in case their divorce does get nasty, Spears has already armed herself with the best legal team money can buy.

An insider with knowledge of the situation told Page Six that the “Gimme More” singer recently hired divorce lawyer to the stars Laura Wasser — whom she previously worked with when battling ex-husband Kevin Federline for custody of her two sons in 2008.

Some of the Los Angeles-based lawyer’s other A-list clientele includes Kim Kardashian, Johnny Depp, Kevin Costner and Joe Manganiello.

The Grammy winner and the model got engaged in September 2021 after nearly five years of dating.

The pair tied the knot during a star-studded ceremony at their home less than one year later — yet rumors of marital issues started to swirl almost immediately after.

Before her marriage to Asghari, the “Womanizer” singer was famously married to Jason Alexander for just 55 hours in 2004. 

She then wed Kevin Federline that same year, but they called it quits three years later. The former backup dancer and Spears share two sons: Sean Preston, 17, and Jayden, 16.
