BALLZ! Express Yourself With BALLZ!

The same day that is wife filed for separation, photogapher Adnan Ghalib took to the airways Tuesday to discuss his relationship with Britney Spears.

Despite reports of a split – and seemingly false claims that Brit had taken out a restraining order against him – Adnan told Entertainment Tonight and The Insider that the relationship is “far from over.” (Indeed, the two were spotted together that night.)

He also insisted that he wasn’t paid for the two-part interview and that he didn’t get involved with Britney as a way to sell pictures. “No, never,” he said. “In time I think people will understand that.” Asked if he wants to marry Britney, the paparazzo, 35, responded, “I’d be lying if I said no.”

This news comes after sources confirm that not only have Britney and her legal team called an emergency hearing for Wednesday morning at L.A. Superior Court, but that the embattled pop star has agreed to undergo a psychiatric evaluation. Brit has refused several times in the past to an evaluation, and is agreeing only on the grounds that she be allowed to visit with her boys, Sean Preston and Jayden James, during the evaluation. Brit is reportedly asking that the visitation be court-supervised and that it take place in a “therapeutic environment.”

But until she has her boys back in her arms, it looks like she’ll be hugging Adnan. Around 6:00pm PT on Tuesday, the pair were spotted leaving Taverna Tony’s restaurant in Malibu. Hand-in-hand, they jumped into Britney’s white Mercedes and off down the coast back toward L.A., smooching all the while.

Meanwhile, as of 7:30 p.m. PT, the odd couple has been holed up on the 8th floor of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills. Perhaps the pair were watching Adnan on TV?

UPDATE: Britney Spears’ attempt to regain visitation rights has been denied! No changes have been made. K-Fed maintains sole custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James.

It’s been just a month since Britney Spears and Adnan Ghalib first spent a night together in a L.A. hotel, but their romance appears to be over.

Celebrity news agency X17 is claiming that Britney’s sometime manager and pal Sam Lutfi showed the agency’s photographers a copy of Britney’s restraining order against Adnan last night. The LAPD has told PageSix that no restraining order has been officially filed, but that doesn’t mean Brit hasn’t started the paperwork.

“All I can say is that I have not been in contact with Britney since early Friday morning. The reason being, that I have had to attend a family funeral in Santa Barbara. My phone has been off during this time out of respect for my family,” said Adnan regarding the recent news. “I am only now becoming aware of what is being said. I hope to be back home in Los Angeles soon and to be in contact with Miss Spears,” he adds.

Over the past week or so Adnan — who has earned his expertise in weaponry fighting abroad in Afghanistan, Kosovo and Macedonia — has been acting more bodyguard than boyfriend. The last time they were seen together was on Wednesday when a confrontation erupted at the Gaucho Grill in L.A. where Adnan allegedly threw chairs across the restaurant on the poptard’s behalf.

With that said, we’re pretty sure he won’t be happy to know that Brit disavowed him. Or at least the British chick possessing Britney Spears has. When asked by a photographer on Sunday if she has a message for Adnan, the alleged singer responded in a British accent:

“I don’t know who that is… I have never met him before.” The remark, which the person formerly known as Britney made outside of the Millennium Dance Studio in Burbank, fueled rumors of their breakup.

Of course, she could just be bipolar and crazy. You have to watch for yourself to appreciate it fully:
