Pop star Britney Spears has split from her former housekeeper boyfriend.
On the 8th (local time), reports surfaced that Britney has separated for the second time from her boyfriend Paul Richard Soliz. In an interview with TMZ, Britney revealed that she broke up with him around Valentine's Day in February.
The specific reason for their breakup is still unknown. According to sources close to the couple, this split is permanent.
Previously, the two broke up in July 2024 and briefly reunited in February.
In May of last year, Britney had a fight with Paul at a hotel in Los Angeles' Chateau Marmont, which led to a commotion requiring paramedics to be called.
Paul and Britney first met in 2023 when Paul began housekeeping and maintenance work at Britney's home. He is known to be a former mechanic with a criminal record.
Britney was also spotted spending time with Paul's children at an indoor playground during their relationship.
In October of last year, Paul's wife of 8 years filed for divorce, claiming Paul was an 'irresponsible dad' to their nine children. Britney and Paul reportedly separated about three weeks prior to that.
Britney has two sons, Preston (19 years old) and Jayden (18 years old), with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. She had also reached a divorce settlement with another ex-husband, Sam Asghari, in May 2024.
A source told DailyMail.com, "Britney chose her happiness and that of her children over Paul. The two were not getting along, and in fact, Paul did not treat Britney as she deserved. Britney learned that Paul was a lazy dad, which greatly disappointed her. But above all, Britney knew that being with him would lead her down a dark path. His past speaks for itself."
Meanwhile, Britney has recently sparked controversy as fans expressed concern over her messy hairstyle, changed teeth, and odd speech and voice. She stated on social media that those criticizing her are simply too jealous of her and expressed regret over the situation.
