Britney Spears has ensured her $60 million fortune is well-protected, after it was revealed her husband Sam Asghari has filed for divorce. The singer, 41, and model, 29, signed an iron-clad prenuptial agreement that tightly guards her vast wealth, meaning he won't receive a penny of any money she made before their marriage.
![On Wednesday it was revealed that Sam and Britney had split after a year of marriage, with sources claiming he moved out following a 'huge argument' over rumours she'd been unfaithful. But it now seems unlikely that Sam will take much away from his marriage to Britney, with the prenup stating that he was entitled to '$1 million per every two years' of their marriage, with a cap at $10 million after 15 years, according to US Weekly. Sam has also allegedly waived any claims to Britney's music collection, and his name is not listed on the deeds of their shared home in Thousand Oaks, California.](https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/08/17/14/74416501-12417133-On_Wednesday_it_was_revealed_that_Sam_and_Britney_had_split_afte-a-12_1692279648000.jpg)

![The couple splashed out $11.8 million on the property, though a vast chunk of that came from Britney's fortune. According to the prenup, Britney and Sam agreed to put the house into a limited liability company or LLC in the event of a divorce. Since she and Sam tied the knot, Britney has added to her fortune by signing a $15 million deal with publishing house Simon & Schuster for a tell-all memoir titled The Woman In Me. The star also returned to music by releasing two new singles, a new version of Tiny Dancer with Elton John, and Mind Your Business with will.i.am.

It comes hours after Britney was pictured without her wedding ring after it was revealed she and Sam had split following a year of marriage. According to court documents, Asghari is asking the millionaire for spousal support and to cover his attorney's fees, but it's unlikely their prenup will be thrown out.

Asghari's lawyer Neal Hersh said that things still need to be determined regarding their finances — despite their 'iron-clad' prenup in place that protects the singer's premarital assets. Page Six reported that Britney has hired celebrity divorce attorney Laura Wasser — who boasts A-list clients such as Kim Kardashian, Kevin Costner and Johnny Depp. Wasser is huge proponent for prenups regardless of a wealth status as she believes marrying someone is the 'biggest decision of your life.'

But another source told DailyMail.com: '[These claims] are absurd and there is no way her attorney, a former federal prosecutor, would ever let anyone ever extort Britney Spears.'
