Britney Spears and Sam Asghari are now estranged to the point that their respective divorce attorneys have taken over all communication between them, according to recent reports.
Although the couple has addressed the end of their 14-month marriage on social media, sources suggest that they haven't exchanged a single word in person. All communication came to a halt after Asghari departed from Spears' residence.
TMZ sources also indicate that their legal teams will manage all discussions related to negotiations and divorce proceedings moving forward. Representatives for both Spears and Asghari have yet to provide a comment on the matter.
In her first public statement about the divorce, Spears expressed her surprise and stated that she couldn't endure the pain any longer. Posting on Instagram, the "Toxic" singer conveyed her emotions, mentioning that she had been portraying strength for too long. She emphasized that her Instagram account presents a life that's significantly different from reality.

Spears revealed her desire to openly show her emotions but confessed that she has felt compelled to hide her vulnerabilities. She mentioned her struggles with her family dynamics and conveyed the expectation of unconditional love. These remarks followed Asghari's earlier comments, where he referred to the split by saying, "s–t happens."
Reports indicate that the discord between the couple escalated in early August, leading to a "nuclear argument" triggered by rumors of Spears' alleged infidelity. Additionally, there were claims that Asghari was using the threat of disclosing potentially damaging information about Spears to push for a renegotiation of their prenuptial agreement.
