The sister of Britney Spears is currently a star in the 2023 I’m A Celebrity jungle.
Publicly, she has had two relationships and one resulted in marriage. She welcomed her children with all of the two men she has had a romantic affair with.
Here’s everything we know about Jamie Lynn Spears’ love life.
Who is Jamie Lynn Spears’ husband Jamie Watson?
Jamie Watson is famous as the spouse of American actress and singer Jamie Lynn Spears.
The Louisiana native met Britney Spears’ younger sister back in 2010 following the split between her and Casey Aldridge — the father of her first child — when they were introduced by a mutual friend.
He even admitted to not knowing who Spears was when they first met.
Jamie and Watson have been married for close to a decade since 2014. They got engaged in 2013.
What does Jamie Watson do for a living? Watson is the owner of Advanced Media Partners, a Louisiana-based communications service.
In a TLC special, Jamie Lynn Spears: When the Lights Go Out, that aired back in 2016, Watson described himself as a “normal guy with a normal job.”
What did Jamie Watson say about his sister-in-law Britney Spears?
After Britney’s emotional testimony at her conservatorship hearing on June 23, 2021, Watson spoke out in support of his sister-in-law.
“I can assure you her family loves her and wants the best for her,” Watson said to the New York Post at the time.
“I wouldn’t be around people who weren’t. Who wouldn’t want to be in support of Britney?”
Her testimony was the first time in over 13 years that Britney spoke out in open court about the conservatorship that was put in place back in 2008.
Britney called the conservatorship “stupid” and “abusive.”
On Friday, November 12, 2021, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny announced the termination of Britney’s conservatorship.
Who is Casey Aldridge, Jamie Lynn Spears’ ex-fiance?
When Jamie Lynn Spears began a relationship with her former fiance, Casey Aldridge, they were both teenagers. Spears was just 13 years old, while Aldridge was 16 when they were introduced to one another at church. Despite living quite a distance away from one another, the youngsters hit it off and learned they were expecting three years later.
They got engaged in March 2008 before moving to Liberty, Mississippi, following the birth of their daughter, Maddie, in June of that year. Sadly, Spears’ hit series, “Zoey 101,” came to a screeching halt shortly after her pregnancy was announced, though Spears confirmed that the show ended due to the cast getting older and pursuing different opportunities.
Unfortunately, before the teen parents could say “I do,” they ended their relationship, in 2009. They briefly attempted a reconciliation in 2010 but soon walked away from their romance for good. Instead, they turned their attention to their daughter, co-parenting amicably for years. Spears remained in the entertainment industry, while Aldridge dealt with a list of personal misfortunes, careful to steer clear of his ex’s public feud with her sister, Britney Spears.
After parting ways with Nickelodeon star Jamie Lynn Spears, Casey Aldridge found love again with a woman named April Watson. They tied the knot in 2013 and welcomed their daughter, Skylar Brooke, in July 2014. By September 2017, Watson had seemingly had enough and filed for divorce, but little is known about their separation. Aldridge keeps his Instagram profile private, so whether his social media offers clues about the relationship’s demise is unknown.
The couple’s divorce was finalized in June 2018 and Aldridge is reportedly active in both of his children’s lives. He and Spears came together to support their daughter, Maddie, in February 2017 when she was injured in a life-threatening ATV accident. The younger sister of Britney Spears moved on as well, marrying Jamie Watson in March 2014 after several years of dating on and off.
The two also share a daughter named Ivey Joan, who arrived in 2018. Spears’ new hubby appears to get along well with Aldridge, even joining hands in prayer with him when Maddie was hospitalized after her crash.
He has had several run-ins with the law. Maddie’s father Casey Aldridge, 34, was arrested and charged with five counts of burglary of a storage house and one count of burglary of a dwelling in 2020.
By profession, Aldridge’s current whereabouts and what he does for a living are unclear, however, back in 2007, he briefly considered community college before taking a job as a pipe fitter in Baton Rouge.
How many children does Jamie Lynn Spears have?
Jamie Lynn Spears is the mother of two daughters.
The names of her kids are Ivey Joan Watson and Maddie Briann Aldridge.
She shares her children with two men; one with her former boyfriend and her youngest with her current husband. The names of the fathers of her children are Casey Aldridge and Jamie Watson.
The I’m a Celebrity star and her husband Watson welcomed their only child, Ivey, on April 11, 2018.
“Ivey has brought us so much joy in these past 3 years, it was only fair that we had a celebration just for IVEY, with all of the things that fill her little spirit up with the same joy and love she shares with everyone around her,” Spears said in an Instagram post celebrating Ivey’s third birthday, back in April of 2021.
While the couple only shares one child, Watson is also the stepfather to Spears’ other child, Maddie Briann Aldridge, born in June 2008.
Back in 2008, Spears announced that she was pregnant at 16.
At the time, she was starring in the Nickelodeon series Zoey 101, which ended due to her pregnancy.
Following Ivey’s birth in 2018, Spears spoke to People magazine about being a mom for a second time.
“As we all know, there was a lot of chaos around my last pregnancy,” she said.
“I would say that being a mom is being a mom: It doesn’t matter if you’re in your teens or not, there should be no excuse to not be a great mother. It doesn’t matter what your age is.”
Spears added that the only thing different between Maddie and Ivey’s pregnancies is the support system around her.
In 2017 Jamie Lynne and Maddie, then 8 years old, were in a near-fatal ATV accident.
She and her mom appeared on an episode of Nickelodeon’s Double Dare, where they won $15,000 to donate to the New Orleans Hospital that helped treat Maddie after the accident.
