AceShowbiz - Britney Spears' on-and-off boyfriend Paul Soliz will be legally single soon. The 38-year-old, who has a criminal record, is now going through a divorce as his wife Nicole Mancilla is pulling the plug on their marriage.
Per TMZ's report, Nicole filed for divorce on Wednesday, October 2 after 8 years of marriage. She cites the boilerplate "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for the split and she lists June 29, 2023 as the date of separation.
Paul and Nicole, who were married in March 2015, have four minor children together. She is seeking legal and physical custody of their children, but is open to Paul getting visitation. She is also seeking spousal support and asks to terminate the court's ability to award support to Paul.
Britney and Paul's relationship was first revealed following her divorce from Sam Asghari. Their relationship has been a subject of concern and controversy since it started, with the singer's loved ones getting worried about her involvement with Paul, who has a criminal record, including multiple misdemeanors and at least one felony.
In May, the two were involved in an altercation at West Hollywood's Chateau Marmont which resulted in emergency services being called. Britney later clarified that there was no mental breakdown, attributing her visible distress to a foot injury.
In July, the 42-year-old singer announced her split from Paul by declaring that she's "single as f**k." She additionally lashed out at the former maintenance worker for letting the paparazzi take a picture of her and him together in her car back in April.
However, just a few weeks later, Britney sparked reconciliation rumors after she was spotted hanging out with Paul again. The two appeared to enjoy a meal together at Soho House in Malibu. In August, the Princess of Pop was also seen going trampolining with Paul's kids at a Sky Zone in Thousand Oaks, California.
