There is a new celebrity baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and fiance Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl this morning: Maddie Briann!
"Just the family was there," says a source at the hospital in Mississippi where Jamie Lynn gave birth. "Everyone is healthy and happy."
Maddie Briann Aldridge was born around 9:30 this morning.
The big news follows reports that Jamie Lynn was hospitalized with complications and would be giving birth today. Glad she did - and everyone's healthy!
Jamie Lynn's big sister, Britney Spears, papa Jamie Spears and big brother Bryan Spears all flew in Wednesday to be with her for the birth.
Her mother, Lynne Spears, had been with her all along helping her get ready to sell the celebrity baby photos to OK! Magazine have the baby.
Britney Spears was on hand as Jamie Lynn Spears welcomed Maddie Briann into the world, as was her fiance / baby daddy, Casey Aldridge.
Since announcing her pregnancy in December, Jamie Lynn has been laying low in the comforts of her hometown of Kentwood, La. She and Casey Aldridge, who got engaged this spring, bought a house in nearby Liberty, Miss.
Over the last few months, Jamie Lynn Spears has kept busy by passing her GED exam, preparing the nursery and attending multiple baby showers.
Jamie Lynn's former co-star on Zoey 101, Erin Sanders, said earlier this year that the young actress will be a terrific and fun mother.
"She is just a very good-hearted and warm person," he said.
"We would always hang out on the set and she is a lot of fun, so I think she's going to be an easygoing, fun mom."
Congratulations to Jamie Lynn Spears, Casey Aldridge and the rest of the Spears clan on the arrival of beautiful Maddie Briann!

Why is this news? A teen age girl gets pregnant and has a child. This happens all the time. Publicizing it only glamorizes it and will give more white trash girls the idea to get pregnant.

i agree, its almost like they're congradulating her, make it seem like her situation is a good thing. and jamie being too easygoing with that girl will just make the whole "spears" cycle happen again

are you guys stupid? It's news because it's a new life to the world. & apparently she's famous. Of course celebrities get the gossip news. If they didn't it wouldn't be celebrity gossip.

Uh, I don't think people will "get the idea to get pregnant" since it obviously wasn't an "idea" that Jamie Lynn had... It's pretty clear that her pregnancy was unplanned. She's 17--this can't be easy for her to deal with, but she seems to be taking responsibility and making the best of the way things are. Give her a little credit for that, she's been criticized enough.

I'm not sure which is going to be tougher to overcome, being born in to the Spears family or growing up with the name Maddie

We should be proud that she keep her child instead of aborting an innocent life but we shold pray hard for her too that she won't follow the eccentric footsteps of her sis!!

nuttin big abt tis!! just another young teenager mummy who might not be able to handle the baby well and ended going bonkers like elder sister.
the couple might never be together as they're simply too young to handle parenthood, c'mon pity the baby as she may go fatherless or motherless somehow.

oh whatever, I think Maddie is a really cute name,
and that anyone who is talking badly about Jamie Lynn
or the spears family should be quiet..
because no family is perfect
and just because there's isn't doesn't give you the right to criticize them.
