Britney Spears and Sam Asghari‘s divorce is signed, sealed and delivered as far as the law is concerned — a judge just put his John Hancock on the paperwork … but there’s a catch.
According to new court docs, obtained by TMZ, a judgment has been entered in Britney and Sam’s divorce case … which means they are officially no longer married or entangled as man and wife in California, something we expected after they settled up Wednesday.
Things moved fast since then obviously — and with this latest development, it just formalizes the fact BS and SA are unattached … however, they won’t be legally single ’til later this year.

Indeed … buried in all the paperwork — which doesn’t really contain any interesting new deets that we didn’t already know — is the fact that Britney and Sam’s respective single status will not be restored until several months from now … specifically, 7.
In other words … Britney and Sam can’t legally marry anyone else until that date — December 2, 2024. It’s a standard window in the Golden State … each divorce has to go through a period of at least 6 months after a judgment is entered before the book closes.
As we reported … Sam and Britney had an ironclad prenup in place — which basically left Sam with nothing substantial. We know she agreed to pay his rent at his new place for a bit … and while there were talks of her cutting him a check, unclear if that ever happened.
In any case … it brings their years-long relationship to an end, and a marriage that was rife with issues too — everything from allegations of physicality, cheating and a whole lot more.
Of course, Britney is anything but living easy right now … her life has proven tumultuous in the aftermath of splitting up with Sam — and even now, it appears she might be unraveling.
As we reported … on the same day they settled their divorce, Britney ended up being at the center of paramedics arriving at the Chateau Marmont over what we’re told was a fight with her current boyfriend — Paul Soliz. Britney downplayed the incident — but it ain’t good.
