Britney Spears mother and estranged husband Kevin Federline are joining forces to help Britney recover from her addictions and reported depression.
“Everyone is making comments how sad it is that it took this to get everyone together,” a source close to Federline tells PEOPLE. “There was a lot of distance between the families but it seems now they all have a common goal, which is to help Britney get better.”
As for how the 25-year-old pop star is faring in rehab, on Feb. 28 and March 1, she emerged from Promises looking clear-eyed and happy. On those days, she was out only for a few hours, to attend meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous.
Others rooting for Spears’s recovery include Brooke Shields, who told Access Hollywood last week, amid speculation that Spears may be suffering from postpartum depression, that she’d be available to talk to the singer anytime.
And music producer Timbaland, who has crafted hits for Spears’s ex-boyfriend, Justin Timberlake, tells Entertainment Weekly that he’d like to work with Spears once she’s better.
