Britney Spears is getting candid about her single life.
Spears, 42, confessed in a lengthy Instagram post on Sunday, December 10 that being single feels strange. “I’ve had a lot of time to really reflect on both the good and bad.” Alongside the post, The Woman in Me author shared a picture of a nun drinking from a teacup and admitted that she doesn't speak to herself "nicely at all."
Spears admitted, "I'm easily influenced and I show my emotions openly. But I'm working on changing that... I need to take time to reflect and ask myself, 'Is this beneficial for me?'"
The singer also mentioned that she prefers having a routine and typically follows the same daily activities.
She expressed, "I'm honestly bored but I'm also scared of a lot of things. The way I live my life is mine, and I've had so many people interfere with that. But to know it's okay to be selfish with my life and enjoy it is amazing!" In August, it was confirmed that Spears' ex-husband Sam Asghari filed for divorce from the pop star after just over one year of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. Besides Asghari, 29, Spears has been married two other times. Previously, she wed Kevin Federline in October 2004, but the two split in 2007. They share two sons: Sean Preston and Jayden James. In January 2004, she also tied the knot with Jason Alexander, but the marriage was annulled after 55 hours.
Before Spears and Asghari ended their relationship, a source revealed that there had been difficulties between them. "Britney and Sam face challenges, but their love for each other is undeniable," an insider shared, emphasizing their determination to work through their marital issues.
After meeting on the set of her 2016 song "Slumber Party," the couple announced their engagement in September 2021, following nearly five years of dating. In April 2022, Spears and Asghari shared the news of their first baby on the way. However, in the following month, she revealed that she had experienced a pregnancy loss. In her memoir, Spears describes feeling "giddy" upon learning of her pregnancy and expressed her eagerness to start a family with Asghari, a desire she had harbored for a long time before their wedding.
