The 27-year-old fitness pro and actor opens up about his dreams for the future in an interview with Forbes and reveals he’d like to start a family with the 39-year-old pop icon.
‘I want to take my career to the next step when it comes to acting. I want to take my relationship to the next step, as well. I don’t mind becoming a father. I want to be a young dad.’ the Tehran-born personal trainer said.

Britney is already mom to sons Sean Preston, 15, and Jayden James, 14, with ex-husband Kevin Federline.
In 2008, the singer was put under a conservatorship that was controlled by her father, Jamie Spears. It means the singer is currently unable to make major personal or financial decisions without the approval of her father.
The Grammy-winner is currently locked in a legal battle to have her father permanently removed from her conservatorship.
The agreement was extended following numerous hearings in 2020, with the most recent ruling from December leaving it in place until September 2021.

Asghari surprised fans when he lashed out at Britney’s dad last month, amid the buzz surrounding the Framing Britney Spears documentary.
In an Instagram post he wrote, ‘Now it’s important for people to understand that I have zero respect for someone trying to control our relationship and constantly throwing obstacles our way.
‘In my opinion Jamie is a total d**k. I won’t be going into details because I’ve always respected our privacy but at the same time I didn’t come to this country to not be able to express my opinion and freedom.’
It was an unexpected move from Asghari who up until that point had never spoken about his relationship with the singer or the challenges of the conservatorship.
Just days before he had released a much more restrained statement as he spoke in support of his girlfriend, following the release of the New York Times Presents doc about the embattled pop star.

The insider added that the fitness guru, who has been a support system for Britney amid her conservatorship battle, would also like to one day marry the singer.
‘Sam also sees marriage in his and Britney’s future when the time is right and they are able to wed without the restraints of her conservatorship and with the blessing of her family,’ the source said. ‘He’s very old-fashioned in that way.’
In the Forbes interview Sam recalls meeting the Toxic hitmaker on the set of her 2016 music video for Slumber Party.
‘Personally she picked my picture and she wanted me to be cast in the music video.’ Sam said of when he met Britney during the shoot for Slumber Party in 2016
‘My girlfriend now at the time, personally she picked my picture and she wanted me to be cast in the music video.’ he said of being chosen by the megastar to appear in the saucy video.
As for his acting career, Asghari would love to be an action hero like Dwayne Johnson
‘My friend called me and said, “I need you to be on it. Trust me, you want to show up.” I didn’t know who was shooting. It was a secret project. So I showed up because of my friend. I showed up and everything just kicked off from there.’
As for his acting career, Asghari would love to be an action hero like Dwayne Johnson.
‘I look up to Dwayne Johnson and the quality of his career. The reason why I look up to him is because with all the perceptions he had going on with the muscular look, the WWE look, he still came out to Hollywood and he was able to really breakout there and really do any type of roles.
‘It’s great to see that someone like that paved a path for people like me to be able to pursue it. My goal in acting is to become an action figure. I want to show my variety of acting. I want show that I’m able to do comedy, I’m able to do action, I’m able to do drama. I want to show what I’ve been training for.’
