Britney Spears recently made a statement about the joys of being single amidst rumors of her dating her ex, Paul Richard Soliz. The singer shared a dancing video on Instagram with a caption that read, 'Beautiful Sunday ?? Hopeless, romantic understanding that being single is awesome ?????????????????? !!!' This comment was seen as a response to reports claiming she was still involved with Soliz, a convicted felon who previously worked as her housekeeper.
Sources have indicated that Spears and Soliz are indeed in a romantic relationship, with one insider confirming that 'He’s still in the picture.' Despite requests for comment, representatives for Spears have not responded to these claims.
It was first reported in August that Spears and Soliz were getting closer as she went through her divorce from Sam Asghari. Concerns were raised about their budding romance, especially given Soliz's criminal history, which includes misdemeanor charges and a felony conviction for disturbing the peace in 2014.
Although Soliz was also charged with child endangerment, the case was dismissed through a plea negotiation. While rumors of Spears and Soliz dating were initially denied, it was later confirmed that they were indeed romantically involved.
Asghari, Spears' former husband, filed for divorce in August, citing irreconcilable differences. There were reports alleging infidelity on Spears' part, although the details remain unconfirmed. The couple, who got married at Spears' estate in California, ended their one-year marriage.
