Sam Asghari, a model and actor who became famous after his marriage to Britney Spears in 2022, seems to be having a hard time.

Asgari recently filed for divorce from the 40-year-old star, accusing her of infidelity and asking for “damages” to keep her laundry out of the public eye – legally he’s not entitled to a cent of Spears’ estate, having signed a prenuptial agreement.

Since then, things have not been going as the young ex-husband would have liked. According to information cited by Page Six, after filing for divorce, the 29-year-old actor has been left without a job.

Sam Asghari wrapped filming on his only upcoming project, the comedy Grand Death Lotto, just weeks before the first actors’ strike in 43 years began, and has been without an offer since.

“Sam is still looking for that big deal,” a source told Page Six.

His manager has not commented on the news.

But Asgari himself responded and even said that he has “as many jobs as DiCaprio”!

A reporter spotted him with a placard at the actors’ strike (accidentally?) and asked him about the related publications.

“This is what this strike is all about. all the actors in Hollywood are currently out of work – so I have the same jobs as Leonardo DiCaprio,” Asgari replied, relaxed and smiling.
