The 16-year-old sister of US pop star Britney Spears is expecting a baby, it has been reported.
Jamie Lynn Spears, star of the cable TV comedy series Zoey 101, told OK! magazine that she is pregnant and that the father is her long-time boyfriend, Casey Aldridge.
"It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected," she said. "I was in complete and total shock and so was he."
Spears is 12 weeks pregnant and initially kept the news to herself when she discovered she was expecting from an at-home test and subsequent doctor visit, she told the celebrity magazine, which hits stands in New York and the rest of the US by Friday.
Of premarital sex, Spears said: "I definitely don't think it's something you should do; it's better to wait. But I can't be judgmental because it's a position I put myself in."
After she found out from a doctor that she was pregnant, she said: "I took two weeks to myself where I didn't tell anybody."
"Only one of my friends knew because I needed to work out what I would do for myself before I let anyone's opinion affect my decision. Then I told my parents and my friends. I was scared, but I had to do what was right for me," she said.
Spears broke the news to her mother, Lynne, just before the Thanksgiving holiday on November 22, the magazine says.
"She was very upset because it wasn't what she expected at all," Spears said. "A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive."
Lynne Spears, already grandmother to Britney's young sons, said: "I didn't believe it because Jamie Lynn's always been so conscientious. She's never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby."
