She added, "I would love to show my emotions and tears on how I really feel but some reason I’ve always had to hide my weaknesses !!! If I wasn’t my dad’s strong soldier, I would be sent away to places to get fixed by doctors !!! But that’s when I needed family the most !!! You’re supposed to be loved unconditionally … not under conditions !!!!"

"After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together," the 29-year-old wrote on his Instagram Story.

He continued, "We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other. And I wish her the best always."

Earlier this week, Asghari filed for divorce in a Los Angeles court, citing, "irreconcilable differences"

The couple had split three weeks ago on July 28. Sam, whorequested financial support from her ex-wife,has accused the singer of violently attacking him while he was asleep. He also alleged that she gave him a black eye.
