Brooke Shields offers her support to Britney

Brooke Shields, who suffered from postpartum depression after the birth of her daughter, Rowan, in 2003, offered her support to Britney Spears, who is currently in rehab, during an interview with Access Hollywood, which will air Monday. Brooke added;

I hope she's fine. 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.

If she is suffering from postpartum depression says Brooke;

Then it really needs to be reckoned with, and it's very common, and she'll get through it.

Brooke wrote, Down Came the Rain: My Journey Through Postpartum Depression ($9.50) to tell of her experience with postpartum depression after having Rowan. Since then she has had Grier, now 10 months, and did not suffer from it again, to our knowledge. And if Britney is reading her book?

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