Aunt Says Jamie Lynn Got Pregnant On Purpose

Teen icon Jaime-Lynn Spears' aunt has suggested the TV star became pregnant on purpose in a big to steal some of big sister Britney's limelight. The "Zoey 101" star stunned the world earlier this week by confirming she was three months pregnant, and not everyone is supporting her decision to become a young mom.

Speaking out on TV news show "Extra," Spears' aunt Chanda McGovern says, "Whether she got pregnant on purpose or by accident she's wanting a little 'me' attention because everything's going on with Britney. "I hope she don't take parenting tips from Britney." And McGovern insists she's upset by the news her niece is with child: "Sixteen is entirely too young to be sexually active ..."

In other Jaime-Lynn news, the star reportedly is planning to marry the father of her unborn child Casey Aldridge, his pastor uncle reveals. Subsequent reports have suggested the pair are set to split, but Aldridge's uncle, Reverend Odus Jackson claims they are smitten and have discussed marriage. Jackson tells the New York Post, "Jamie-Lynn and Casey want to get married. I know Casey does, and he says she does, too. "I know what he has expressed. Casey wants to get married and do it as soon as possible."
