Britney Spears was accused of having a meltdown at an LA restaurant Friday that reportedly caused her husband, Sam Asghari, to leave the establishment, according to TMZ.
However, a video obtained by the outlet just shows the pop icon, 41, trying to shield her face as fans tried to record her during her dinner.
People who allegedly witnessed the incident at Joey in Woodland Hills, Calif., told TMZ Saturday that Spears was “manic” and began speaking gibberish.
Sources claim Asghari, 28, was “visibly upset” and “stormed out” of the place without his wife.
Just two minutes later, Spears reportedly walked out herself and her bodyguard allegedly picked up the bill.
Reps for the music superstar did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment. Asghari’s rep declined to comment.

A manager at Joey’s tells Page Six they could not “disclose any information” or confirm the couple was there.
Spears has openly struggled with mental health issues, particularly due to the stresses of her 13-year conservatorship.

She was reportedly diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but has spoken out on social media and in court about allegedly being held at a mental health facility against her will and being forced to take medications.
Despite her hardships, Spears and Asghari tied the knot in June 2022 in a fairytale wedding at the Grammy winner’s home in California with celebrity guests, including Paris Hilton, Selena Gomez, Drew Barrymore, Madonna and more.

The “Toxic” singer and “Family Business” actor are typically very private but have occasionally shown a very united front on social media.
For Spears’ birthday in December, Asghari posted a video on Instagram of all the special things he did to commemorate his wife on her special day, including taking her out to eat and showering her with gifts and balloons.
Later that month, he debunked skeptics’ claims that he “controls” Spears, telling TMZ at the time, “No, I don’t even control what we have for dinner.”

“You know, in the past, there has been a lot of stuff going on, so I understand where [fans are] coming from,” the model added.
“They’re just being protective. If anything, they’re being good fans.”
However, the couple has hinted a few times that they are not always on the same page.

Spears admitted in November that she wasn’t totally “present” during her wedding to Asghari and the Iranian actor has also said he is not a fan of his wife’s topless photos online.
The pair has not directly addressed the recent restaurant incident on their social media.
