Jamie Lynn Spears Thrilled About Baby Girl

Britney Spears’ younger sister Jamie Lynn has given birth to a baby daughter named Maddie Briann.

The 17-year-old sister of pop wreck Brit Brit gave birth to her first child at Mississippi Southwest Regional Medical Center in McComb, Mississippi on Thursday.

Proud grandfather Jamie, who was said to be present at the birth, insists the entire family are delighted with the newest member of their clan.

He tells America's Life & Style magazine: "We're thrilled, we're all absolutely thrilled."

The Zoey 101 star and her partner Casey Aldridge became engaged in March. The teen star stunned the Spears family when she announced her pregnancy news last year, at the age of 16. They had reportedly been delaying their wedding until after the birth of their child.
