Paris Hilton has spoken out
in defence of Britney Spears' parenting skills.
Spears drew criticism in February 2006 when she was filmed driving with her
son Sean Preston, who was then a 19-month-old toddler, on her lap.
However, Hilton, who was released from jail on Tuesday after serving 23 days
behind bars for driving while her licence was suspended, insisted that Spears is
a "good mum" who "loves her kids".
She said of Spears: "She's a sweet girl. She's a good mum. She loves her
children. I've seen her with her kids. She loves her kids. And I think it's hard
for anyone when you're in the spotlight so much. It's very overwhelming at such,
like, a young age."
