Despite reports that Jamie Lynn Spears has been rushed to the hospital due to pregnancy complications, a spokeperson for the 16-year-old is talking exclusively to OK! to deny the scandalous rumor.
"Contrary to rumors, Jamie Lynn Spears has not been rushed to the hospital nor has she suffered a miscarriage," the Zoey 101 star’s rep tells OK!. "She is healthy and at home with her mother.”
Jamie Lynn, younger sister of beleaguered pop star Britney Spears, is expecting her first child with longtime boyfriend Casey Aldridge later this year. She revealed her surprise pregnancy in December in an exclusive interview with OK!, in which she vowed to take responsiblity for her actions and her baby because "I put myself in this position, an adult position."
"I have really become at peace with the whole situation, and I think it’s the right thing for me to do," she continued. "It’s a personal decision that everyone would have to make for themselves. This one is just right for me."
Since her shocking announcement, Jamie Lynn has returned home to Louisiana, where she was spotted exiting the Adult Education Center with a GED book in hand alongside mom Lynne, to whom the pregnancy has brought her closer.
"It’s good to be able to have somebody who no matter what you do is always going to be there for you, who will never walk out," she tells OK!. "It’s really good to have that."

Forget all the rumors you’ve heard regarding the relationship between young parents-to-be Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge. He hasn’t run off; they haven’t broken up; no one’s hiding from anyone. In fact, those closest to the couple reveal to OK! that the Zoey 101 star’s 18-year-old beau has marriage on his mind!
"They are fully committed to each other," Casey’s great-uncle, Pastor Odus Jackson of Galilee Baptist Church, tells OK!. "That’s how love goes. Jamie Lynn can have anyone she wants, and Casey is very popular too. But they keep on finding each other, and that makes me hopeful for their future. He wants to propose to her and get married!”
Since news of the 16-year-old actress’ unexpected pregnancy broke in late December, friends say the couple have been basically inseparable. “Jamie technically still lives with her mama," one source explains, "but she spends her free time with Casey." Which means the two lovebirds are constantly making the hour-long trek between her home in Kentwood, La., and his place in Gloster, Miss., where Casey is busy working hard to earn a living.

After announcing her pregnancy exclusively in the pages of OK!, Jamie Lynn Spears has already embarked on the challenges on being a new mom, including getting her education.
The 16-year-old Zoey 101 star, and little sister of Britney Spears, was seen with her mom Lynne leaving the Adult Education Center near their home in Kentwood, La. In Jamie Lynn’s hands is a book about the GED, the test which would give her the equivalent of a high school diploma without having to attend a proper school.
Jamie Lynn explained to OK! that she’s willing to take responsibility for her decision to continue with the pregnancy, saying, "Now that it’s in my lap and that it’s something I have to deal with, I’m looking forward to being the best mom I can be."
"I put myself in this position," she added, "An adult position, so I have to act like an adult and take responsibility for what I did."
