Britney Spears recently seemed to cast shade on her ex-husband, Sam Asghari, in an Instagram post that highlighted both her love for the Turks and Caicos and an apparent preference for solo time. The Grammy winner, 42, shared a video of herself dancing in black lingerie but used the caption to make pointed remarks about her past relationship.
Starting her post with an appreciation for the natural beauty of the islands, Britney wrote, “Here’s something about this exotic place. No matter how many times I come here, it feels like the first time!!! The way Mother Nature speaks to me!!! Alone!!! Meditation and prayer speak volumes!!!” Her opening comments seemed like a reflection of the peaceful energy she associates with her time alone.
In her description of the island’s natural surroundings, she also mentioned her admiration for the “melodic birds chirping” and a “courtyard blooming with flowers.” But as the post continued, the Toxic singer delved into some personal details, revealing that her trips to Turks and Caicos with Asghari were not as peaceful as the surroundings.
“I’m honestly not ashamed to say this,” Britney wrote. “But whenever me and my ex would come here, we fought. Not one time did I sleep in bed with him!!! I got a pillow and would sleep outside.” The confession quickly caught attention, with many fans interpreting it as a veiled comment on the tension that may have existed between her and Sam.
Britney’s marriage to Sam Asghari, her former personal trainer, lasted nearly two years. They split up last year and finalized their divorce in May of this year, following public rumors and reports of mounting friction. Despite fans wanting to engage with the post, the Oops!… I Did It Again singer disabled comments, leaving them unable to respond directly.
In her post, Britney hinted at a similar night spent outdoors on this current trip, which some fans saw as a subtle dig at her current partner, Paul Soliz. She expressed her fondness for the sounds of the island night, sharing, “I like the sound of the fountain outside!!! I wanted to whisper the secrets of the universe.” While she admitted to spending more time indoors this visit due to the extreme heat, she added that she was considering “sleeping in the baby courtyard tonight” – possibly another hint that she prefers some alone time.
The post comes amid Britney’s recent focus on her personal journey and independence following a tumultuous few years. Despite a dedicated fanbase, her posts have frequently been made without the option for followers to comment, as she navigates this new chapter on her own terms.
Britney’s remarks, though brief, underline the complexities of her relationships and her enduring quest for peace and healing. Whether a subtle nod to her past or simply an expression of her love for Turks and Caicos, her post emphasizes a message of self-reflection. Now focused on moving forward, the Womanizer singer seems intent on shaping her life her way, while giving fans a glimpse into her personal growth.
