Paul Richard Soliz had only positive things to say about Britney Spears amid her split from Sam Asghari. Soliz, 37, spoke exclusively to Us Weekly following his court appearance related to probation violations. He described Spears, 41, as a phenomenal and positive person without disclosing specific details about their relationship. Soliz stated that he still sees Spears and that she’s doing great following her divorce from Sam Asghari, whom he referred to as a great guy.

Soliz has a criminal history that includes multiple misdemeanors and felonies. He expressed confidence that his ongoing criminal case would be dismissed and mentioned his enrollment in court-ordered anger management classes. He revealed that he previously worked for Spears, providing maintenance at her home before being terminated after about two months.

Soliz, a licensed contractor, emphasized that he’s not a bad person and aims to improve his public image. Amid rumors of infidelity contributing to Spears and Asghari breakup, Soliz was alleged to have been involved with Spears. Asghari filed for divorce from Spears in August, citing irreconcilable differences, and Spears has since been enjoying her newfound freedom. While she wants to meet new people, her dating preferences may change frequently.

These developments come after a period of speculation and rumors surrounding Spears’ personal life, her divorce, and her interactions with Paul Richard Soliz.
