I had butterflies.”

Britney and Sam enjoyed an outing with the singer’s sons Sean Preston, 16, and Jayden James, 15, at the Los Angeles Lakers game on Nov. 29, 2017.

While Britney’s controversial conservatorship began way back in 2008, it started making major headlines following the release of the Framing Britney Spears documentary in Feb. 2021. Supporters of Britney — who helped jumpstart the #FreeBritney movement — rallied behind the superstar regarding her fight to remove dad Jamie Spears from his role as conservator of her estate. Sam backed Britney as well when he isssued a supportive statement about his “better half” following the doc’s release. He told PEOPLE, “I have always wanted nothing but the best for my better half, and will continue to support her following her dreams and creating the future she wants and deserves.”

Sam showed further support for Brit when he wore a ‘Free Britney’ shirt ahead of her first conservatorship hearing in June 2021. Britney definitely felt the support from her beau, and thanked him in an appreciation post she shared to Instagram in Aug. 2021. “Not only has this cute asshole been with me through the hardest years of my life but he happens to be an extremely good cook,” she wrote in the sweet tribute.
