Model and actor Sam Asghari is opening up about his life following his divorce from Britney Spears.
It has now been six months since the pair, who met while filming Spears’ steamy "Slumber Party" music video, finalized their divorce and officially closed the door on their 14-month-long marriage.

With both his sister, Fay, and latest companion Brooke Irvine as his dates for the evening, Asghari emphasized that he was doing his best to move on from Spears with as much grace as possible.
"It's the bed that you make yourself, and you got to learn how to lay in it," he told PEOPLE, "so it's part of the lifestyle."
He continued, “You just got to keep it positive, stay grounded and understand what the truth is, and really just live with that rather than other people's opinions or anything like that.”
Sam Asghari Remains ‘Thankful’ For His Time With Britney Spears
Just this summer, Asghari opened up even more about his relationship and subsequent marriage to Spears with E! News.
Speaking to E!’s Francesca Amiker, Asghari shared the lessons he picked up while being married to one of the world’s most celebrated entertainers.
"You learn so much from being in relationships in general," he relayed. "I appreciate all the amazing experiences that I got."
Asghari further stated that being in a committed relationship helps “grows you as a person,” and that his time with Britney will be "something that's always going to be a part of me.”

"I wish her the best," he said. "She's an amazing person and a huge part of my life, and I always appreciate the moments we had together."
Sam Asghari Has Moved On From Britney Spears To Someone A Bit ‘High Maintenance’
Time heals all wounds, as Asghari proved back in August, when he introduced the world to his first serious relationship following his marriage to Britney.
While attending the Los Angeles premiere for his movie, Jackpot!, Asghari filled E! News in on the identity of his new love.
"I'm dating someone as we speak," he shared. "She’s very high maintenance. I just did her nails, took her to the dog park."
If you’re confused, he was actually talking about his new dog, a Doberman named Porsha.
“[I give her] a lot of treats,” he gushed.
In all fairness, Asghari did bring a human plus-one along with him for the event – his mother, Fatima, who was very new to the red-carpet experience.
"I did miss a lot of time with my mother," Asghari admitted, further explaining that he left her behind in Iran when he came to live in America. “We reunited around three years ago."
“This is something new to her,” he said of the movie premiere, “so I wanted to show her my world.”
