Britney Spears is now breaking the silence about the divorce with Sam Asghari.
“Couldn’t take the pain anymore,” writes the star.
The day after Sam Asghari publicly confirmed that the couple is divorcing, Britney Spears is now commenting on the whole thing in a post on Instagram.
In the post, she writes about the couple’s six years together and describes that she “played strong” on the outside for far too long.
“As everyone knows Hesam and I are no longer together… 6 years is a long time to be with someone like that, I’m a bit shocked but… I’m not here to explain why, because honestly no one else has something to do with it!!! But, I couldn’t take the pain anymore honestly!!!” writes the star.
She further writes that everything may have looked perfect on her Instagram, but that it is in fact far from reality.
“I would have loved to show my emotions and tears about what I really feel but for some reason I have always had to hide my weaknesses.”
In the post, Britney Spears also writes that “One should be loved unconditionally… not under conditions!!!” So I will be as strong as I can and do my best!!!”
She also ends the post by writing that she still feels “pretty damn good”.
Britney Spears and Sam Asghari were married for about a year when news of the couple’s separation was announced on August 16.
