Was Britney Spears physically abusive?
Sources claimed that during one instance, Asghari woke up to find Spears punching him in the face.
He did not fight back but was left with a black eye and bite marks on his arm.
This incident happened earlier this year around the same time that paparazzi spotted his injuries and tried to question him.
Asghari reportedly asked them not to take pictures of him.
The sources also said that Spears had a collection of knives in their house, including in their bedroom.
Is Britney Spears paranoid?
Sources said that Spears was paranoid that someone was after her and needed the knives for protection.
Asghari was scared of her erratic behaviour and how she would “fly off the handle” over minor things.
The final straw for Asghari came a few weeks ago when he accused Spears of cheating on him.

This led to a huge argument and his decision to file for divorce. The couple had been married for 14 months after getting engaged in September 2021.
They met in 2016 on the set of Spears’ music video for 'Slumber Party.'
Sam had been living at a place of his own after a huge fight over rumours of infidelity from Spears, as earlier reported by the publication.
ET Online reported on Wednesday that Asghari has gone ahead with his decision and filed a divorce from Britney Spears.
Is Britney Spears Ok?
As per a source cited by the outlet, "Britney and Sam have split. She's adamant she didn't cheat. The two haven't got along for a while and it finally came to an end after a major blowup."
Even as Spears seemed to have been enjoying post-split given her Instagram posts, the outlet revealed that she "has not been doing well" amid the split.
"She is hurt because the situation brings up old feelings for her. This is the last thing she needed, especially after her boys moved to Hawaii, being worried about the fires there, and so on."
"She has been trying to get back on her feet and be healthy emotionally, physically, and mentally. Britney has people by her side and her immediate circle is there for her. They are rallying around her."
