Britney Spears’s ex-husband, Jason Alexander was arrested while crashing her wedding venue in southern California, authorities say.
Earlier on Thursday, Alexander broadcast a live video from his Instagram account as he approached the event security. Walking around what appeared to be a mostly empty but decorated house and gardens, he told them repeatedly Spears had invited him.
“She’s my first wife, my only wife,” said Alexander, who was briefly married to Spears – his childhood friend – in 2004. Their marriage lasted only 55 hours.
“I’m her first husband,” he continued in the video. “I’m here to crash the wedding.”
Variety reported that deputies were still investigating what had occurred, and would determine if additional charges will be brought against Alexander in relation to the trespassing allegation.
Spears was previously also married for two years to dancer Kevin Federline, with whom she shares two sons, aged 14 and 15.
Spears and her fiance Sam Asghari were reportedly expected to marry on Thursday. The couple met on the set of a music video in 2016. They announced their engagement in September last year, shortly before Spears won a legal battle with her family and was freed from a 13-year conservatorship in November.

How did Britney Spears meet Sam Asghari
Stronger together! It was love at first sight when Britney Spears and Sam Asghari met in October 2016 on the set of her “Slumber Party” music video.
“I was excited that I [would] get to meet one of the biggest artists of all time,” the personal trainer recalled to Men’s Health in July 2018. “I had butterflies.”
But when Asghari tried to break the ice, he almost ruined his chances with the Grammy winner. “She said, ‘Hi, I’m Britney,’ and I said, ‘I’m sorry, what’s your name again?’” he told the magazine. “I tried to be funny. I don’t think anybody got it.”
Fortunately, Spears was charmed by the fitness model and they started chatting about one of their favorite foods, sushi. They continued to talk throughout the shoot and exchanged phone numbers by the end so that they could set up a proper first date. And the rest, as they say, was history.
