Brooke Shields Reaches Out to Britney Spears

Brooke Shields has reached out to Britney Spears following reports that the singer is suffering from postpartum depression and is receiving treatment while in the Promises rehab center in Malibu.

"I hope she's fine," Shields tells Access Hollywood. "I believe she's going to be fine, and she just needs the support and her kids. She's their only mom, and she'll earn that back in her own mind."

Shields suffered postpartum depression after the birth of her first child, Rowan.

Shields says of the condition, "it really needs to be reckoned with, and it's very common, and she'll get through it."

Shields, now the mother of daughters, Rowan, 3, and 10-month-old Grier, wrote the book Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression which detailed her experience with the condition and how she overcame it.

"If [Britney] is reading my book," Shields says, "I hope it's helping her. If it's not, and she wants to talk to someone, I'm available."
