Britney Spears Posts, Deletes Vow To Stay ‘Single As F–k’

After three marriages and a few high-profile romances, Britney Spears seems ready to go it alone. In a since-deleted post, the 42-year-old singer who is in the midst of divorcing her third husband, actor/model Sam Asghari, announced that she is done with men.

According to screen grabs from fans of the Sunday Instagram post, Spears paired an inspirational message reading “Her attitude is savage, but her heart is gold” along with the strident vow, “Single as f–k. I will never be with another man as long as I live.” As of Tuesday morning (July 9), the single talk and comments were gone and the post featured just the uplifting quote.

Spears’s first marriage, a Las Vegas wedding to childhood Jason Alexander, lasted less than 55 hours and was quickly annulled. She married former dancer Kevin Federline in September 2004, less than nine months after her Sin City quickie. The pair stayed together for two years and had two sons during their union, Sean Preston Federline and Jayden James Federline.

Spears met her third husband, Asghari, on the set of her 2016 “Slumber Party” video, with the pair making it official in January 2017. The singer and personal trainer stayed together through the difficult unwinding of her long-running conservatorship, marrying in June 2022 and then announcing they were headed for divorce in August 2023.

Before swearing off anymore XY action, in January, Spears also rubbished talk of an upcoming album by clearly stating that “most of the news is trash,” adding, “they keep saying I’m turning to random people to do a new album… I will never return to the music industry !!!”
