Asghari and Spears finalized their divorce earlier this year

The news was broken by TMZ, who had a look at the court documents and the date on which they were released. Spears' declaration as legally single comes seven months after her divorce from Sam Asghari. According to sources, the two reportedly split amicably, with Spears' wealth guarded by a prenup. 

“The divorce was amicable and the prenup was not challenged,” said a source to PEOPLE at the time of their divorce. “Britney is continuing to flex her freedom and is moving on.”

This past October, Spears shared a video of herself dancing while wearing her wedding dress. "The day I married myself," she captioned the post. "Bringing it back because it might seem embarrassing or stupid, but I think it’s the most brilliant thing I’ve ever done!!!"  

Spears appears to be dating her landscaper Paul Soliz. Asghari has been dating Brooke Irvine, with the two spotted out together earlier this week.

Britney Spears and Kevin Federline share two kids: Sean and Jayden

Spears' emotional reunion with her son

Earlier this year, it was reported that Spears reunited with her 18-year-old son Jayden. After years of estrangement, Jayden has returned to California after living in Hawaii with his brother Sean, 19, and his dad Kevin Federline, who's had custody of his kids since 2008. 

It appears like Jayden was the one to take the first step and facilitate the reunion, reaching out to Spears first. “Jayden texted Britney to say he was back home,” said an insider to Page Six. “She was very happy to hear from and see him.”

The two have been spending time together over the past month. “Britney is thrilled to have her baby back,” said another insider of the reunion. “Everything is moving in the right direction.”
