The mid-2000s are really back, just on the verge of getting over JLO and Affleck’s engagement, 40-year-old Britney Spears announced that she’s pregnant with her third baby.
Months after Britney Spears was released from the conservatorship that she said was restricting her from having a third child, the pop star announced in an Instagram post that she is pregnant.
“I lost so much weight to go on my Maui trip only to gain it back … I thought ‘Geez … what happened to my stomach ???’ My husband said ‘No you’re food pregnant silly !!!’ So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby”, she announced.
She continued, saying that her belly is “growing,” joking that if she’s pregnant with twins she “might just lose it.” Spears then reflected on her first two pregnancies — with sons Sean Preston, 15, and Jayden, 14, whom she shares with ex-husband Kevin Federline, confessing that she had perinatal depression, which was “absolutely horrible.”
This time around, the musician vowed to do yoga “every day” to counteract anything that could cause her pain amid the pregnancy journey.
“I obviously won’t be going out as much due to the paps getting their money shot of me like they unfortunately already have,” Spears posted. “It’s hard because when I was pregnant I had perinatal depression … I have to say it is absolutely horrible … women didn’t talk about it back then … some people considered it dangerous if a woman complained like that with a baby inside her … but now women talk about it everyday … thank Jesus we don’t have to keep that pain a reserved proper secret … This time I will be doing yoga every day !!! Spreading lots of joy and love”, she said.
Asghari confirmed the pregnancy in an Instagram post on his page, “Marriage and kids are a natural part of a strong relationship filled with love and respect. Fatherhood is something I have always looked forward to and I don’t take it lightly. It is the most important job I will ever do.”
Spears and Asghari met in 2016 on the set of her music video for her song, “Slumber Party.” Asghari proposed to Spears in September 2021 after five years together. In recent posts, she has referred to Asghari as her “husband,” but has not officially said whether the couple is married yet.
Two months later, Spears’ conservatorship was terminated after more than 13years, which she previously claimed stood in the way of her and Asghari having kids
“I would like to progressively move forward and I want to have the real deal, I want to be able to get married and have a baby,” Spears testified last June. “I was told right now in the conservatorship, I’m not able to get married or have a baby. I have an IUD inside of myself right now so I don’t get pregnant. I wanted to take the IUD out so I could start trying to have another baby. But this so-called team won’t let me go to the doctor to take it out because they don’t want me to have children — any more children. So basically, this conservatorship is doing me way more harm than good.”
