Octavia Spencer apologised to Britney Spears after suggesting she should get Sam Asghari sign a prenup before they tie the knot.
The Oscar-winner said she reached out to Spears, while addressing the matter on her Instagram too.
In a post, Spencer wrote, "Y'all, a few days ago Sam and Britney announced their engagement and me being me I made a joke."
"My intention was to make them laugh not cause pain. I've reached out to this lovely couple privately to apologize and now want to restore just a smidge of happiness they were robbed of," she added.
Spencer went on to add, "Britney's fans have seen her through a lot of pain and she's found happiness. We're thrilled for her. So let's show them love. #nonegativity."
Her post even got noticed by Asghari who commented, "You are very kind to clarify but i have no hard feelings whatsoever. Jokes and misconceptions come with the territory."
