"I'm really happy for her -- I think he's a great guy," the 33-year-old told Australia's TV WEEK magazine. "It's a good step in the right direction. I'm totally happy for her."
Federline, who's currently down under filming the reality weight loss show, 'Excess Baggage,' admits that despite having two sons together, he and Spears haven't remained close since their split. "I haven't spoken to her much since I've been over here, both of us have been busy with her being on tour."
However, KFed is impressed with Britney's current comeback. "I do know from talking to the kids and talking to the kids' teachers that they're doing really good," reveals Kevin.
Many attribute Brit's positive turnaround to her new fiance Trawick. Since the two began dating, Britney's gotten back into shape, released a hit record, crossed the globe for her smash world tour and in general admits to feeling far more at peace her in life.
