Britney Spears’ paparazzo boyfriend Adnan Ghalib continues to cash in on their romance. The Birmingham-born paparazzo, 35, is said to have received a hefty pay cheque - one source estimates as high as $ 200,ooo (£100,000) - from US TV networks that are running interviews on the couple’s romance all this week.

Adnan gave two interviews to US TV shows The Insider and Entertainment Tonight in which he answered accusations he has tried to cash in on their romance.

Last night he told the show that Britney wants to marry him and have his baby.

Adnan spoke for the first time about the photographs of Spears picking up a pregnancy test which first sparked frenzied speculation that the Toxic singer could be expecting.

Ghalib revealed: “I think she was hoping she was pregnant with my child. I think she felt that she was. She has a very maternal instinct.”

And Adnan insisted Britney had “absolutely not” taken out a restraining order against him.

Adnan said: “You know. It’s unfortunate and I hate to say it, but people don’t like happy in Hollywood.

“I don’t think anybody wants her to be happy.”

And he said, despite still being married to wife Azlynn Elizabeth Berry, who has now started divorce proceedings, he would have married Britney if she had asked.

Adnan confirmed that he had a sexual relationship with Britney and believed he was falling in love with her. But he insisted the relationship was strictly professional until late December - and claimed their romance was the last thing he exected.

Ok… I don’t want to go too far but I must say something! #$@#&**  WTF? Britney wake up! He’s falling in love with her money!
