Efforts by Spears's lawyer, Mathew Rosengart, to end Spears's conservatorship seemingly paved the way for Spears and Asghari to act on their desires to get married. After nearly five years together, the couple took their relationship to the next level, announcing their engagement in September 2021. Asghari's manager told Us Weekly in a statement, "The couple made their long-standing relationship official today and are deeply touched by the support, dedication, and love expressed to them." Spears shared a video flaunting her ring on Instagram with the caption "I can't f***ing believe it!!!!!!"
