A judge won't order Britney Spears to give away a piece of her income in future spousal support.
After the pop star and ex Sam Asghari finalized their divorce, the judgment revealed more details about the breakup—including that the court will not order spousal support from either Britney or Sam.
The pair is instead dividing up their property based on a private settlement agreement. According to legal documents obtained by E! News, the former couple have "entered into a written agreement regarding their property and their marriage or domestic partnership rights, including support."
Their divorce docs reveal that the couple officially separated on July 30, 2023, and Sam filed for divorce about two weeks later.
"Irreconcilable differences have arisen between the parties that have led to the irremediable breakdown of the marriage, making it impossible for the parties to live together as husband and wife," reads the May 2 paperwork, noting that both the singer and fitness mogul "acknowledge that their marital relationship cannot be restored or reestablished at this time."

Sam, 30, and Britney, 42, got married in June 2022 but decided to unravel their union just a year later.
"After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together," Sam wrote on Instagram Story in August 2023. "We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always."

Unbreakable Bond
In February 2021, a source close to the pop star offered rare insight into their shared private life.
"Sam is very good to Britney and she's crazy about him," the insider told E! News. "She loves when they get to travel together and take a romantic vacation... They work out together and both are very into staying fit and taking care of their bodies. They love watching movies together and hanging out at home. But Britney also loves going out to dinner, especially for sushi."
Say I Do
The lovebirds get attended Asghari's best friend's wedding in April 2021. Due to what a source described as "restrictions" involving the pandemic and her dad, Jamie Spears, an insider told E! News she "finally had an opportunity to get out and she took it."
#FreeBritney
Ahead of his girlfriend's bombshell court testimony in June 2021, Sam shared his support for the social media movement calling for an end to her years-long conservatorship.
Hope For the Future
During the June 23 conservatorship hearing, Britney testified to wanting what she described as the "real deal," marriage and a baby. According to the singer, the conservatorship prevents her from creating the future she wants.
She told the judge, "I deserve to have the same rights as anybody does by having a child, a family, any of those things."
Stronger Than Yesterday
As Britney continued to make positive strides in her conservatorship battle, a source close to Sam indicated a proposal was just over the horizon.
"Engagement has always been in the cards for Sam and Britney, without question," the insider shared with E! News in September. "It's the direction their relationship has been heading for nearly two years now. It's always a discussion and it's not a question of if, it's when."
The source explained further, "Things are evidently becoming better for Britney with her conservatorship and she's never felt this liberated in all aspects of her life. The closer she gets to freedom, the closer she is to seeing all of her dreams become an actual reality. Marrying Sam is high on that list and loving him the way she wants, how she wants, on her own terms."
She Said Yes!
On Sept. 12, 2021, the music superstar announced her engagement. In a video shared to Instagram, Brit showed off her bling as Sam asked, "Look at that! Do you like it?" "Yes!" she told him.
