IT’S OVER

The Traitors marks Sam’s first appearance in anything since his divorce from Britney.

The duo finalized their divorce in May after the actor filed in August 2023.

At the time, he cited irreconcilable differences as the cause of the relationship’s demise.

Sam signed a prenup at the start of his marriage to Britney, leaving him with nearly nothing when the marriage ended.

The Circus singer continued to pay her ex’s rent after he moved out of the Los Angeles home that they shared, TMZ reported.

The outlet also stated that Sam asked Britney to write him a hefty six-figure check following their split.
