Aug. 17 (UPI) -- Pop music icon Britney Spears and her husband, model Sam Asghari, are divorcing after 14 months of marriage, according to multiple media outlets.

People.com also confirmed the separation with numerous unnamed sources, stating Asghari filed for divorce Wednesday.

"They're separated and it's best for Britney," NBC News cited one unnamed insider as saying.

E! News said their representatives have not responded to requests for comment.

Spears met Asghari in 2016 on the set of her "Slumber Party" music video and exchanged wedding vows in June 2022.

They have not publicly addressed the breakup reports.

Spears legally won the right to have the conservatorship her family placed her under in 2008 ended in 2021.

During that time, Spears had no legal authority regarding her own medical decisions or contracts, including a legal marriage.

Spears is the mother of sons Sean, 17, and Jayden, 16, with her ex-husband Kevin Federline.
