Pop icon Britney Spears finally got her happy ending as she married Sam Asghari in a star-studded wedding ceremony in Los Angeles.
However, while some guests were welcome – such as Madonna and Paris Hilton – one was not, as ex-husband Jason Alexander crashed the event before they’d said ‘I do.’
Jason is said to have turned up at the event and approached security, telling them Britney had invited him and that she was his ‘first and only wife’.
He is said to have been live-streaming the events, with the image freezing as a physical altercation occured.
Jason was later arrested, with Britney supposedly left, understandably, ‘shaken’.

Jason is known for being Britney’s husband of just 55 hours.
The Piece Of Me hitmaker wed Jason in a spontaneous ceremony in January 2004.
They headed to the Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas, Nevada in the early hours of the morning to tie the knot.
Both husband and wife were just 22-years-old at the time (now 40), and their marriage was annulled two days later.
Jason then claimed that the wedding was forced by Britney’s mother, Lynne, and her management.
In the annulment, it was stated that Britney ‘lacked understanding of her actions, to the extent that she was incapable of agreeing to the marriage.’
One day after the marriage was annulled, Jason spoke to Access Hollywood about their whirlwind wedding ceremony.

‘It was just crazy, man. And we were just looking at each other and said, “Let’s do something wild, crazy. Let’s go get married, just for the hell of it”.’
Jason claims he was told he could remain in a relationship with Britney after their marriage was annulled, however, when he tried to call the singer’s mobile at a later date, there was no response.
Fast forward to 2021 and Jason attempted to join in with the Free Britney movement, which fought for the end of her 13-year-long conservatorship, which came to an end on November 1.
He claimed he was tricked by Britney’s parents before the conservatorship even began, and also says he’s been offered book deals to share his story.
Elsewhere in his personal life, Jason was supposedly arrested three times last year, one for driving under the influence.
