Brooke Shields Offers Britney Spears Help

Brooke Shields wants to help Britney Spears. "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 who suffered from postpartum depression after the birth of her first child says that if Britney is indeed going through postpartum, "then it really needs to be reckoned with, and it's very common, and she'll get through it."

Shilds wrote the book Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression detailing her experience and how she overcame it. There were rumors that Britney Spears was reading the book while in rehab. "If [Britney] is reading my book," Shields adds, "I hope it's helping her. If it's not, and she wants to talk to someone, I'm available."

lets not overlook what Brooke said here key word "if"...Brooke herself isn't certain that Brit is going thru PPD, in which in my opinion she is not. I won't doubt she is a bit bipolarish but not PPD. She is also soaking up all this attention she is now doing. Women with PPD is out trying to get attention to themselves.

Brooke Shields is a great role model and very stable. If it is or not PPD, Brooke is great for Britney since she was a childhood star who ended up stable and handling fame well. She needs someone like that. A great stable role model.

I just KNEW they were going to pull the PPD card eventually w/this. Never mind the partying, drugs, etc. she's been rumored to be a part of in the past. I feel for Brit no matter what the source of the problems and want to see her come out on top of this but they really want to make PPD out to be a cure-all for anything a new mother chooses to do wrong lately. It may be a factor but it is being blamed WAY too often for WAY too many things IMO.

Gotta give Brooke credit.Like honestly how many celebs would take the time to help someone in need.I guess there are some caring human beings among celebs after all.Way to go Brooke.

Judge Cowell at American Idol said he could careless about Britney. Wow! We are all human and are connected. I am a nurse and I do have compassion and empathy in need. Judge Cowell would just lead to some star committing suicide and he would careless. He should not be a judge in American Idol. We need more compassionate and empathetic stars like Brooke Shields. I am very appalled and fiberblasted that Judge Cowell would say such an evil thing about anybody-star or no star. Its dam close to the devil. Where is the love in this world? Its terrible not to have no care or compassion. She is only a human being. Brooke Shield is a positive example of what a star should be like-compassion, empathy, love and understanding. We are all humans connected to each other. We need to help each other. Life is dam hard!
