“I hired a wedding planner who has done Madonna ’s wedding and plenty more … he was extremely expensive and yes my first request was to get married in that church pictured. It was the only picture I had and sent to him through my phone at my house. I was told 6 weeks later … I could not get married there !!!” Spears alleged that she “was told no” when she wanted to go to the church during the pandemic.

“It’s not a big deal, but I don’t like being called a liar when their church says I never asked!!!” concluded the pop icon. “Pssss … the church I pictured is the St. Peter’s Basilica in Italy … not the Santa Monica Church.”

Earlier this month, Spears had called out the church for not letting her marry Sam Asghari at the house of prayer because she is not a practicing member. “Isn’t church supposed to be open to all????” she wrote on social media.
