(قلت: إسناده صحيح على شرط الشيخين. وأخرجه البخاري، لكنه أشار إلى أن قوله: كان حُرًّا .. مدرج في الحديث؛ فإنه ميزه عنه فقال: قال الأسود: وكان زوجها حرًّا ... وقال عقبه: "قول الأسود منقطع، وقول ابن عباس: رأيته عبدًا .. أصح"؛ يشير إلى حديثه المتقدم (١٩٣٣ و ١٩٣٤))

2235. It was reported from Al-Aswad, from ‘Āishah, that Barīrah’s husband was a free man when she was freed, and she was given the option (of remaining his wife or leaving him). She replied: "Even if I were to have such and such, I would not like to be with him." (Da'if)
٢٢٣٥ - حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، " أَنَّ زَوْجَ بَرِيرَةَ كَانَ حُرًّا حِينَ أُعْتِقَتْ، وَأَنَّهَا خُيِّرَتْ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَهُ، وَأَنَّ لِي كَذَا وَكَذَا "

According to Shaikh Al-Albānī, the statement "he was a free man" is an interpolation, being merely the statement of Al-Aswad bin Yazid, and, according to Imām Al-Bukhārī, Munqata' (an interrupted chain of narration), while Ibn 'Abbās' statement "her husband was a slave" is more correct.
