Britney Spears' former boyfriend Issac Cohen has said that he is praying for the singer after her decision to enter rehab.
Model Cohen told People magazine: "I was definitely surprised that she went into rehab. I didn't feel it had to come to that, but you know, if that's what it takes and if that's what she needs."
"It's the best thing for her, her children – for everyone around her, actually. She's a strong girl and I really feel that she'll be okay."
Cohen, who revealed details of the couple's relationship to a tabloid newspaper after they split, also said that he wanted Spears to know: "You and your family are in my prayers".
