Just hours after reports surfaced Wednesday that Britney Spears' husband Sam Asghari has filed for divorce, the "Toxic" singer shared on Instagram that she soon plans to buy a horse.

"Buying a horse soon !!! So many options it's kinda hard !!!" Spears wrote Wednesday while posing on horseback on a beach.

"A horse called Sophie and another called Roar ???" she added. "I can't make up my mind !!! Should I join the camaraderie and put a pink cowboy hat on ??? Either way I think I found my sweet spot with Roar !!!"

The post's comments were turned off.

Multiple sources including TMZ and People reported Wednesday that Asghari has filed for divorce after 14 months of marriage to Spears.

Asghari cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the divorce, reported TMZ.

Asghari is seeking spousal support and attorneys' fees, and may also contest the prenuptial agreement he signed prior to their marriage in 2022, the website said.

According to Variety, Spears has retained celebrity divorce lawyer Laura Wasser, who has represented Kim Kardashian and Johnny Depp in similar cases in the past, to represent her in the proceedings.

Representatives for Spears, Asghari, and Wasser didn't immediately respond to Insider's requests for comment.

"I was excited that I get to meet one of the biggest artists of all time. I had butterflies," Asghari told Men's Health of the encounter, adding that they exchanged phone numbers at the time.

Spears said in a 2017 interview on AMP 103.7's "Fast in the Morning with Nathan Fast and Sybil Summers" that she reached out first after finding Asghari's number in her purse.

"I was like, 'He was really cute, this guy was really cute,' so I called him," she said. "He's just a really fun, funny person."

Spears made their relationship public in January 2017 when she shared a photo of them together on Instagram.

They married in a small ceremony at Spears' home in Los Angeles in June 2022.
