Jamie Lynn Spears on 2/28/08
Pregnant teen actress Jamie Lynn Spears may be engaged– or at least she is sporting a new diamond ring given to her by her baby daddy Casey Aldridge. People is reporting that family insiders have seen the ring up close, but can’t give details on when the wedding will take place.
Mom-to-be Jamie Lynn Spears is sporting some sparkling new jewelry – an engagement ring from fiancé Casey Aldridge.
Spears, 16, has been flashing the rock to friends and family around Louisiana and Mississippi, a source close to the family tells PEOPLE.
“She’s got an engagement ring,” the source says. “She’s been showing it off, talking about it.”
Spears and her 18-year-old fiancé are expecting the baby this summer. No official word yet on a wedding date for the couple.
That shrieking sound you hear is Lynne Spears, reading this story. As you recall, Lynn was adamant, in the interview with OK! Magazine breaking the pregnancy story, that Jamie Lynn was not going to marry Casey. But clearly, Jamie Lynn has a mind of her own. While she has reportedly been in therapy, taking parenting classes, and passed her GED exam, Jamie Lynn has also been on her own much of the time over the last few months since her older sister had a total meltdown and was in the hospital. So it makes sense that she would get closer with Casey while her mom and dad are away, looking after Britney. Hopefully this will be a long engagement instead of a rush to the altar before the baby is born. Jamie Lynn should know what a disaster that would be simply be looking at what happened to her sister.

Jamie-Lynn seems so much more earthy and sensible than Britney. I wish her well.
Sounds like a shotgun wedding to me. Let’s see where it will goes.
Has it been determined that Casey is really the father?
I feel sorry for that girl. Those screwups are lucky enough to have two parents, so why the hell can’t the parents divide and conquer?
