Sam Asghari and Britney Spears are most likely still basking in engagement bliss. Nearly one week ago, the fitness trainer popped the question to the “Lucky” singer.
Prior to deleting her Instagram account, Britney posted about the engagement with a series of photos and videos showing off her 4-karat diamond ring.
According to Page Six, Sam popped the question at Britney’s home with the “4-karat round brilliant stone in a platinum cathedral setting enhanced with a floating solitaire design.”
Asghari engraved his nickname for Britney, “Lioness,” on the inside of the band.

His 'LIONESS'
She captioned the post, “I can’t f***ing believe 💍💍💍💍💍💍❣️!!!!!!”
Sam’s talent manager, Brandon Cohen of BAC Talent, exclusively told Page Six, “The couple made their long-standing relationship official today and are deeply touched by the support, dedication and love expressed to them/ Roman Malayev from NYC is the ring designer. He couldn’t be more happier to be involved and make this a one-of-a-kind ring.”
However, the engagement was met with some pushback from fans and celebs alike.
Octavia Spencer was the first to warn Britney about making sure he signs a prenup. Fans also voiced this same concern on Twitter.
WARNING: GET THAT PRENUP!
Sam took the jabs in stride and said he would absolutely be getting a prenup for his Jeep and massive shoe collection.
Octavia later apologized to the newly engaged couple, and even reached out to Sam and Britney personally to send her well wishes.
While there were SOME naysayers in the comments section, one person who is over the moon thrilled for the couple is Sam’s ex-girlfriend, Mayra Veronica.
While speaking to TMZ, Mayra said her ex “hit the jackpot” by proposing to Britney.

“He finally hit the jackpot,” she told the outlet. “She hit the jackpot too, though. He’s extremely supportive, he’s a really, really supportive guy, and after all the s*** she’s been through, that’s what she needs.”
Mayra expressed that she feels “very happy for them.”
When the question of whether or not Sam is in the relationship, which has been five years in the making, for the right reasons, Mayra didn’t hold back.

“I think she’s with the right guy,” she admitted. “Hollywood, it’s so hard to tell, but he’s such a charming, sweet guy that I really hope so for her sake. She’s been through enough.”
Mayra noted that during their relationship, Sam was always very sweet and supportive of her goals, dreams and aspirations.
Mayra and Sam dated in 2015, one year before Asghari met Spears while appearing as her love interest in her “Slumber Party” music video.
