Pop star Britney Spears is giving fans an update on her foot injury, which took place only one day before a judge approved her divorce from actor Sam Asghari.
The 42-year-old pop star has been dragged back into headlines due to an alleged fight with her boyfriend, Paul Richard Soliz. The incident at the Chateau Marmont hotel on May 1 caused the pop star to injure her foot, although it's not clear how.
On May 10, over a week after the incident occurred, the "Crossroads" actress told her followers that her foot was broken, even though she had been photographed driving a few days earlier.

On Friday night, the "Oops!... I Did It Again" singer revealed that her foot is broken, although it's unclear if she has done any medical testing to confirm if her foot is broken or just swollen. Photographs posted by TMZ earlier in the week showed Britney driving on her broken foot with her boyfriend, Paul Richard Soliz, sitting beside her.
"Walking on a broken foot … if i go fast it goes numb !!! I got surgery on my left leg 🦵🏻 three times … twice for my knee and once for my foot 🦶🏻. They always said it can heal on its own but theres a huge chance it can snap and break again 😬 !!!" Britney wrote in the caption. "Well I always did the surgeries and it was more painful afterwards so I’m being stubborn this time .. I’m gonna see if my body knows how to heal itself 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️ !!! Psss swipe to see all 3 !!!"

The day after the incident at the Chateau Marmont occurred, Britney seemed to put the blame on her mother, Lynne Spears, despite the fact that the two seemed to be on good terms for her birthday party last December.
On May 2, Britney posted a video of her swollen foot. In the short clip, she can be heard saying, “Okay guys, so you know, I really twisted my ankle last night, like an idiot."
“It’s so bad. F---ing idiot here tries to do a leap in the living room at the Chateau and I fell and embarrassed myself. And, uh, that’s it,” she continued. “Paramedics came to my door illegally, of course, cause this huge scene, which was so unnecessary when all I needed was ice.” She concluded, "It is actually pretty bad, but s--- happens."
In the caption, Britney wrote, "I know my mom was involved !!! I haven’t talked to her in 6 months and she called right after it happened before the news being out !!! I was set up just like she did way back when !!! I wish I had grandparents !!! I can’t stand her !!! I honestly don’t care I will say it !!!"
She then seemed to address her lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, adding, "Psss this man is wonderful !!! He’s like a father to me and he got me through last night !!! I adore you and admire you mister Mathew !!!"
