Britney Spears’ first husband has dramatically crashed his ex’s wedding to longtime boyfriend Sam Asghari.

Jason Alexander livestreamed himself running through the woods in Thousand Oaks, California, as he approached the venue. 

The 40-year-old was able to slip inside the venue, which appeared to be decorated in roses and a pink theme, before he was confronted by security outside.

Alexander claimed that Britney had ‘invited him’ to the event and that she was his ‘first and only wife’ before he admitted he was ‘crashing’.

He was swiftly tackled to the ground by security and escorted off the premises.

Alexander and Spears tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2004 and were married for just 55 hours before they had their union annulled.

In a 10 minute long Instagram live video, Alexander can be seen scaling a fence on the perimeter of Spears’ property.

He encounters a number of security personnel and openly states his name and intention.

‘I’m Jason Alexander. The first husband. I’m here to crash the wedding!’

As Alexander descends a hillside, he enters the wedding tent where planners are still busy putting the finishing touches.

Several rows of wooden benched can be seen lined up, together with an alter covered in pink roses under which the couple will say their vows.

Alexander introduces himself to several of the workers present who are helping to put everything into place.

He then marches inside the house demanding to know: ‘Where’s Britney?’

The video occasionally cuts out completely but Alexander can be seen bounding up a fight of stairs to the second story before entering what appears to be a bedroom while still calling out Britney’s name. 

Eventually, Alexander is apprehended by a member of the security team who can be see holding a gun in his hand, which he keep pointed towards the floor.

The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department raced to the scene to respond to a trespassing call. 

Three police cars arrived at the singer’s Thousand Oaks home just after 2.30pm, along with a fire truck.

An onlooker told DailyMail.com: ‘It all happened very fast. Three cop cars just showed up and went screeching up her drive.

‘We were all trying to figure out what’s going on, especially after the fire truck left.’

Spears was set to marry Asghari on Thursday after nearly six years together.

The pair announced their engagement via Instagram in September 2021 but had not disclosed a wedding date.

Two months later, the Stronger singer was released from a legal conservatorship that had controlled her personal life and finances for 13 years. 

During court proceedings, she said she longed to get married and start a new family without any restrictions.

Spears announced in April that she and Asghari were expecting a baby. A month later, the singer said she had suffered a miscarriage.

Iranian-born Asghari, 28, is a personal trainer and actor who has appeared on the Showtime series Black Monday.

Spears, 40, has been married twice before. She wed childhood friend Jason Allen Alexander in Las Vegas in 2004, but that marriage was annulled a few days later.

That same year, she married dancer Kevin Federline, with whom she had two children. That marriage ended in divorce in 2007.
