Actress Shar Jackson, 30, is finally speaking out about Britney Spears filing for divorce from Jackson's ex, Kevin Federline. The ex girlfriend and mother of two of Federline's children (Kori, 4, and Kaleb, 2) tells Us Weekly that the couple should come together for the sake of their kids.

"I hope that they are mature enough to realize that their differences come second to the needs of their children and that it is no longer about them as individuals, but about maintaining a healthy friendship/relationship for the sake of their children," she says.

Jackson recently told Inside Edition that she saw no obvious discord between the couple the last time she saw them on Halloween at Federline’s album release party.

"They seemed happy to me,” she said. “[Britney] gave me a hug…and told me I looked cute.”

Jackson added that she’s not bitter towards Federline, 28, for leaving her for Spears, and in fact, actually feels sympathy for him.

“He’s such a nice guy. He’s made some mistakes but everybody else doesn’t have the whole world pointing their finger at their mistakes.”

Spears, 24, and Federline are both suing for custody of their two sons, Sean Preston, 14 months, and Jayden James, 2 months.

“I don’t know what their situation is or why he wants to get custody of his children other than the fact that he loves them,” Jackson told Inside Edition. “Maybe, it goes deeper than that. Maybe it’s because of all the press about her mothering.”

When IE asked why the public seems to be delighting in the couple’s split, Jackson responded, “I think part of it is because whether you know him or not, he has become almost a national joke.”

Now this bitch knows she needs to stop. Britney told you you looked cute, Shar? How many gossip rags did you call to give that "exclusive" to before Us finally took the bait? She is greazy as hell in this, throwing shade on Britney's mama skills and Kevin's, well, life, and while I can't disagree necessarily, the last person who needs to be commenting on ANYTHING besides a Moesha DVD is Shar Jackson.
