This might get ruff.
Britney Spears is reportedly refusing to permit her husband Sam Asghari to receive custody of their two dogs after he filed for divorce from the “Toxic” singer on Wednesday.
Asghari, a 29-year-old fitness instructor turned actor, gifted Spears, 41, a Doberman named Porsha in 2021, and the now-estranged couple also adopted an Australian Shepherd named Sawyer in February.
In keeping with Asghari’s filing obtained by The Post, he’s asking that Spears be required to pay spousal support and canopy his legal fees and court costs, but in addition asked for “separate assets” and “various items” — which the “Gimme More” singer allegedly fears could include her furry friends.
A source allegedly near pop icon told the Each day Mail on Friday, “Regarding [Britney and Sam’s shared] property, probably the most difficult a part of dividing any assets might be their two dogs, but Sam gave Porsha to Britney as a gift and she or he was the one who desired to adopt Sawyer after they were in Maui.”
The Post has contacted reps for Spears and Asghari for comment.
A source also told the outlet that Spears isn’t thinking about keeping the four-carat sparkler Asghari gave her as an engagement ring — as he was allegedly didn’t pay a dime for it.
“Sam can have that ring. It was free from the jeweler [Roman Malayev] and she or he doesn’t want it anymore. She has enough diamonds,” the insider said.
Luckily, Asghari won’t be walking away with a chunk of Spears’ fortune because of an airtight prenup.
Asghari, who cited irreconcilable differences for the rationale for the divorce, addressed the split Thursday on Instagram, claiming “s – – t happens.”
“After 6 years of affection and commitment to one another my wife and I actually have decided to finish our journey together,” he began.
“We are going to hold onto the love and respect now we have for one another and I wish her the perfect all the time. [S–t] happens. Asking for privacy seems rediculous (sic) so I’ll just ask for everybody including media to be kind and thoughtful.”
A rep for Asghari told The Post on Thursday: “There are numerous claims that Sam is difficult the prenup and threatening to take advantage of his ex-wife with videos. Nonetheless, all these claims are false, as no negative intention has ever been directed towards her and never might be.”
“Sam has all the time and can all the time support her,” the rep added.
A source near Spears told The Post that the Princess of Pop is “doing well” following the split and is “excited in regards to the book [her upcoming memoir ‘The Woman in Me’] and latest music.”
The pair got engaged in September 2021, two months before her 13-year conservatorship got here to an end that November.
