Sam Asghari isn’t much of a bookworm when it comes to his ex's tell-all!
In an interview published on Wednesday, September 11, the former husband of Britney Spears, 30, admitted he has not cracked open a copy of the pop star's bestselling memoir, The Woman in Me.
Sam Asghari confessed he has not cracked open Britney Spears' memoir 'The Woman in Me.'
“I did not read the book because I was there,” he explained.
During the sit-down, the actor did not disclose much information about his relationship with the blonde beauty, 42. When asked if he and Spears were in touch, he replied, “If my life is private, it’s private. That’s something I’m always going to respect, regardless of any agreement or not. It’s just the values that I have."
The hunk was seemingly referencing the NDA he signed following the couple’s July 2023 split.
Britney Spears released 'The Woman in Me' in October.
Spears released the book back in October 2023 and it is now being developed into a film. As OK! previously reported, Asghari reacted to the exciting news in August.
“I just hope that they have her approval and everything and they do justice by her legacy because it’s a really strong one,” the personal trainer said about the biopic while walking the red carpet for his film Jackpot.
As for who he would want to play him in the movie, Asghari didn’t share much. “I just don’t — I like to focus on these films,” he said of the action blockbuster, which also stars John Cena. “I want to play other characters as well, so I’m really focusing on my craft.”
Sam Asghari would not address whether he and ex Britney Spears were in contact after their split last summer.
In July, Asghari gave some insights into the end of his 14-month marriage to Spears. "You learn so much from being in relationships in general," he told E! News at the time. "I appreciate all the amazing experiences that I got."
