In all the talk about pictures of Renée Zellweger, and how we shouldn't be talking about pictures of Renée Zellweger, one voice had been noticeably absent: Spencer Pratt's. Unfortunately, Spencer Pratt still hasn't spoken publicly about any pictures of Renée Zellweger. His wife did, though!

Heidi Montag spoke to Extra about recent photos of Renée on Thursday night:

"I don't know if Renee Zellweger just aged like she said, I don't really know. For me, when I see people who look totally different, I have an empathy. I feel like I know why at least I did it, and it kind of brings it back to that time in my life. It's just, I feel for them."

The "it" Heidi is referring to is plastic surgery—she famously ("famously") underwent 10 plastic surgery procedures in a single day in 2010, which she later publicly regretted. She continued:

"I hope it's the right decision for them. I hope they feel good about it. That's the most important thing. My heart goes out them and I think like, 'Why did you do that? Are you happy with it?' It's a hard life-changing decision when anyone does it. Obviously, they're unhappy with something. I hope that they [find] their happiness."

...

"Not only are you getting the criticism from the world and blogs and people, everybody says negative things… it's harder than it's ever been to be in the public eye. You have to be tougher. You have to have really thick skin."

True, if unnecessary and somewhat hard to follow, words from Heidi Montag.

We hope that they [find] their happiness, too. Please tell Spencer Pratt we're awaiting his response.
