Is Sam Asghari planning to have children with longtime love Britney Spears?

The 27-year-old actor and model tells Forbes in a new interview that he has dreams of becoming a father in the near future. Spears, 39, is already mom to 15-year-old Sean and 14-year-old Jayden with ex-husband Kevin Federline.

“My priorities in life are to remain humble and understand where I came from and where I’m going,” Asghari said. “I want to take my career to the next step when it comes to acting. I want to take my relationship to the next step, as well. I don’t mind becoming a father. I want to be a young dad.”

Asghari began dating Spears after meeting on the set of her “Slumber Party” video in 2016, but he told Forbes the meeting almost didn’t happen because he was looking to transition away from music videos at the time and do more TV and film.

“I didn’t want to do more and be known as a music video actor, but a good friend of mine was working on a project and they referred me to the team that was picking out the leading role for ‘Slumber Party,'” he recalled.

Asghari added, “I showed up and everything just kicked off from there.”
