Sam Asghari and Britney Spears split in July 2023.

Not only did Asghari seemingly shade Spears with the image, he also apparently name-dropped the “Toxic” singer to get the picture with Pitt at Bennett Miller’s small gallery exhibition in Beverly Hills on Thursday, January 11.

An eyewitness told Page Six, “Britney Spears’ ex Sam Asghari was also there and went up and asked for a selfie with Brad, mentioning how much the singer loved him.”

“At the #bennettmiller 🖼️@gagosian with some cool people last night. Also got alot of skin care tips from Brad Pitt 💪🏽😂,” the personal trainer, who filed for divorce from Spears in summer 2023, wrote alongside the snap of himself and Pitt.

In the photo, Pitt sported a brown leather jacket with brown fur trim, a brown polo and jeans, while Asghari stepped out in a light brown suede jacket with a black quarter zip underneath and black pants.

As OK! previously reported, many thought Asghari was taking a dig at Spears with the post because of her vocal fondness for Pitt.
