Rumours were rife that Britney Spears had tied the knot with fiance Sam Asghari but that appears to not be the case.
A source close to the star has claimed the rumours aren't true and insists the pair are just being "playful" by referring to each other as husband and wife on social media.
The insider told Hollywood Life : "Britney and Sam are being playful with each other, and they are not married.
"She is going to wait until after she has the baby to focus on that and she will have 9 months to plan her dream wedding now. Sam and Britney have been calling each other husband and wife since they got engaged."
They continued: "She will continue to do so until they are married, which will not be kept a secret."
The source added that Britney, 40, has been searching for her happy ever after and believes she's found it in Sam, 28.
They added: "Sam has spoken out about the type of wedding that the two of them want and his words should be trusted on this.
"Britney has dreamed of her ‘happily ever after’ and for over 10 years she thought she would not ever have it. She’s found it now and she is so thankful and grateful for everything that she has, and even the things she doesn’t have."
Britney announced earlier this week that she was expecting her third child and first with the actor.
She also shares sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden, 15, with her ex Kevin Federline.
The exciting news comes months after her conservatorship of 13 years, which she claimed prevented her from marrying or having kids, ended.
She made the sweet announcement with a lengthy Instagram post.
The Toxic singer wrote: "I lost so much weight to go on my Maui trip only to gain it back … I thought “Geez … what happened to my stomach ???” My husband said “No you’re food pregnant silly !!!” So I got a pregnancy test … and uhhhhh well … I am having a baby … 4 days later I got a little more food pregnant It’s growing !!! If 2 are in there … I might just loose it …"
She added: "It’s hard because when I was pregnant I had perinatal depression … I have to say it is absolutely horrible … women didn’t talk about it back then … some people considered it dangerous if a woman complained like that with a baby inside her … but now women talk about it everyday … thank Jesus we don’t have to keep that pain a reserved proper secret… This time I will be doing yoga every day !!! Spreading lots of joy and love !!!"
Partner Sam gushed over the news on his own Instagram as he shared a drawing of a lion with his lioness and cub and said he has always looked forward to becoming a dad.
