Spears celebrated her 43rd birthday by being declared a single woman by the California courts.
Asghari, an actor and model, filed for divorce from the Womanizer singer in August 2023, citing irreconcilable differences.
While their divorce was finalized in May 2024, recently filed court documents revealed the matter has been officially settled.
Spears and Asghari had a prenup, which sources said was "not challenged".
Asghari filed for divorce from Spears on August 16, 2023 in Los Angeles.
While Spears paid Asghari's rent for a few months after they split, the prenup largely protected the pop star's estate and left Asghari with little from the brief marriage.
A source said in May: "The divorce was amicable and the prenup was not challenged.
"Britney is continuing to flex her freedom and is moving on."
Six weeks ago Spears shared a wedding-inspired post on Instagram declaring she 'married herself'.
Spears' divorce being finalized comes six weeks after she declared she had "married" herself in an Instagram post.

She captioned the post: "The day I married myself … Bringing it back because it might seem embarrassing or stupid, but I think it's the most brilliant thing I've ever done !!!"
Spears made her last child support payment to ex-husband Kevin Federline in November.
Since her split from Asghari, Spears has been in an on-off relationship with Paul Soliz, while the actor has been romantically linked to real estate agent Brooke Irvine.
