A Look Back at Britney Spears and Sam Asghari's PDA-Packed Relationship (So Far)
From the start, it’s been clear that Britney Spears and Sam Asghari are “Crazy” for each other.
Itās been over two years since the pair were first romantically linked after meeting on the set of Spearsā āSlumber Partyā music video. The cute couple have been inseparable since, going on cozy date night dinners, attending friendsā birthday parties and celebrating special occasions together ā including Spearsā 36th birthday and Valentineās Day.
In between hitting the gym, hiking and spending time with her two sons ā Sean Preston, 13, and Jayden James, 12 ā Spears is busy documenting her love fest with her beau on social media.
In late November 2016, the duo kept people guessing about their relationship when Asghari posted a photo of himself cozied up to Spears while out at a restaurant, which he later deleted.

It wasn’t long after a source told PEOPLE in December 2016 that Spears and Asghari were getting to know each other when the model made his first official appearance on her Instagram. They rang in the new year together at Catch LA, where they seemed cozy and in great spirits leading up to a midnight kiss. She seemingly confirmed suspicions of a blossoming relationship with an Instagram post showing Asghari with his arm around her shoulder.
A week later, the pop star shared another pic. This time, the duo were playing around with selfies featuring the popular dog Snapchat filter.

Fans may be surprised to know that their new relationship was nearly a missed connection. After their initial meeting, the Princess of Pop dug up Asghari’s phone number out of her bag nearly āfive months later,ā she revealed in a January 2017 radio interview.
āI was like, āHe was really cute, this guy was really cute,ā so I called him,ā she said. āHeās just a really fun, funny person.ā

Fortunately, it was a match and Asghari became Spears’ date to the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala in February 2017, before they spent Valentine’s Day in a $30 million villa in Malibu, courtesy of Airbnb, with her sons.
The following month meant the celebration of Asghari’s 23rd birthday.
āMy babyās birthday,ā Spears captioned her set of PDA-packed pictures, which included their hike, cake and fun selfies with more Snapchat filters.
She calls me by my real name š

āAre you excited about 2018?ā he asked Spears, to which she replied in the affirmative.
āYou look beautiful,ā Asghari told his girlfriend.
āThank you, and I love you,ā the singer said before giving him a kiss on the cheek as he grinned.

In early February 2018, Spears shared a sweet post commemorating their time together. “Iāve been with this man for over a year,” she captioned a photo of the couple on a hike near a waterfall. “Every day he inspires me to be a better person and that makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world!! ššøā¤”
Since then, the couple continued to breeze through 2018 while having fun. The active duo got together to play tennis, dance and work out.

Suddenly, things for Spears took a turn when her father, Jamie Spears, became seriously ill when his colon spontaneously ruptured in November 2018. The singer revealed that she would be taking an indefinite break from preparing for her next Las Vegas show, Domination, to support her father.

During the tough time, Spears checked into a facility for āall-encompassing wellness treatmentā in April. That’s when Asghari stepped in to play a bigger role in supporting Spears as she dealt with her father’s health scare.
A Spears family source told PEOPLE exclusively that, “There is no question that Sam is great for Britney. He has a very positive influence on her. He is very motivated to stay healthy and fit, and they often work out together.ā
Asghari also often cooks healthy meals for the star, and āhe is a wonderful boyfriend,ā the source added.
Once Spears was able to take her much needed time off, she went back on Instagram to confirm to fans that she was still deeply in love with her man.

Engagement rumors began to swirl once the singer was spotted with a sparkly ring on her ring finger, but a source told PEOPLE that the two were not engaged.
The couple happily posed for photos on the carpet and even shared a kiss.
It seems the pair is inseparable. Spears gushed to her Instagram followers, “I can’t believe I wake up every morning to this man,” adding a little wink for good measure.

Spears bragged about her man’s skills in the kitchen saying, “Okay, not only is my boyfriend really hot, he’s probably, like, the best chef in the world.” Asghari then hands Spears a rose with a sweet smile on his face. And they say, “She’s so lucky!”
