“You have your first love, or what you call love, in high school. You think it’s forever, and then oh my gosh, I’m pregnant,” she said in an interview. “I am mortified to have to tell my parents this and my family this. I do not care what TMZ thinks about it. That was all I was thinking about: ‘There’s a human being growing inside of me, and I’m so young, I’m almost a baby myself.'”

GettyLAKE BUENA VISTA, FL – Jamie Lynn Spears poses with her six-year-old daughter Maddie and Minnie Mouse in front of Cinderella Castle at the Magic Kingdom park August 14, 2014 in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
Maddie’s happy photos come more than seven years after she survived a tragic ATV accident. According to Us Weekly, in February 2017 the then-8-year-old was riding an ATV when it flipped into a pond. The unconscious youngster was underwater for several minutes before she was airlifted from the scene to a nearby hospital.
Spears later shared details of the scary accident in a May 2020 appearance on “Better Together With Maria Menounos.”
“We dove in and we were able to rescue her,” she per People. “When we were finally able to get her out of the water … and the first responders took her from me, we thought she was gone. We thought we lost our daughter.”
Maddie had a miraculous recovery with no signs of damage to her brain.
In February 2024, Spears marked the anniversary of the tragedy on Instagram. “Today is our #MIRACLEANNIVERSARY,” she wrote. “Every year that passes and I watch my daughter grow up, the more I realize how very blessed we are, and never want to take that for granted. Again, thank you to all the healthcare professionals who made the life-saving decisions, and thank you to each and every person who prayed for our baby girl.”
