Jamie Lynn Marie Spears (born April 4, 1991) is an American actress and singer. She is best known for starring in the Nickelodeon television series Zoey 101 and as the sister of Britney Spears. Jamie Lynn, the youngest of the family, also has a brother, Bryan.

Pregnancy of Jamie Lynn Spears

In December of 2007, the 16-year-old Spears announced in OK magazine that she was pregnant and planned to keep the child. She was 12 weeks pregnant and plans to raise the baby in Louisiana, where it can have a "normal life."

The father was reported to be Casey Aldridge, 19 years old, her longtime boyfriend. Because Spears is below the age of consent for the state of California, questions came up regarding their age difference, and whether Aldridge could or would be charged with statutory rape.
However, The Department of Motor Vehicles of Mississippi has confirmed that Aldridge was born on April 29, 1989, making him slightly less than 2 years older than Jamie Lynn. In California, it is illegal for an adult to have intercourse with a person under the age of 18, but it is only a misdemeanor if the child is less than three years younger than the adult. However, it is not known where conception occurred. Depending on the location, the impregnation might or might not have been illegal.
