Sam Asghari

On Wednesday afternoon, long-awaited news brought joy throughout the world.

In court, Judge Brenda Penny ordered that Jamie Spears be suspended from his role as conservator over his daughter, Britney Spears.

As you've likely heard by now, Britney Spears is engaged to Sam Asghari.

The couple have been dating for several years, but news that Sam had proposed came as a surprise because of the timing.

It's been over a week since Sam Asghari proposed to Britney Spears, and fans still aren't quite sure what to think about the situation.

First of all, the fact that Britney is even allowed to get engaged represents a major victory.

Free Britney?

At the moment, it's more akin to... Protect Britney.

It wasn't exactly a shock to learn that Britney Spears and Sam Asghari are engaged.

This weekend's announcement was exciting, but came after weeks of speculation and strong hints that it was coming.

Oops, she did it again?

Nope. No oops here, folks.

Last week, Sam Asghari was spotted ring-shopping.

It was no secret that he and the incomparable Britney Spears want to get married.

In the darkest times, love can give you the boost to keep going until life gets better.

That's more or less what Britney Spears has said about Sam Asghari amidst her ongoing conservatorship battle.

This past year has seen Britney Spears go public with her fight against her dad's control.

Her conservatorship battle is not an easy one -- not in the courtroom, and not emotionally.

The beautiful and talented Britney Spears has been vacationing in Maui with boyfriend Sam Asghari.

She's not just getting away from the paparazzi as she anticipates the next hearing in her fight for freedom.

Over the past few weeks, the public has been granted unprecedented access to the private life of one of the world's most iconic pop stars.

Britney Spears has ranked among the most famous people on the planet since her teen years, but it took a nasty legal battle and a devastating family feud to shed light on the painful reality of her day-to-day life.

Britney Spears' Instagram page has been a subject of major controversy in recent months, and diehard fans have been keeping an eye on her activity with the vigilance one would expect from self-appointed protectors searching for signs of distress.

Is Britney really sending coded messages to her from fans via cryptic social media posts?

We have always been huge fans of Britney Spears' romance with Sam Asghari.

Our enthusiasm has only grown after Sam correctly called Britney's awful dad a "dick."

Last month, Sam Asghari broke his public silence on his girlfriend's conservatorship for the first time.

Or, more directly -- Sam called Britney Spears' dad a "dick," echoing comments made by one of her sons.

In addition to her many talents, Britney Spears is a loving mother to her sons.

She is also virtually inseparable from her boyfriend.

On Tuesday afternoon, "Thank you, Sam" began trending across social media platforms, and for very good reason:

Britney Spears' hunky boyfriend, Sam Asghari, used his platform to speak out against the pop star's father, Jamie.
