News is emerging that Jamie Lynn Spears' baby daddy, Casey Aldrige, not only "cheated" on his then 16 year-old, 6 months'-pregnant girlfriend, but got her pregnant!
Britney fan site BreatheHeavy is reporting the story following In Touch Weekly's report that Casey had fooled around on his fiancee Jamie Lynn.
But Jordan, over at BH, says Kelli got knocked up and had an ABORTION in 2007!!!
After the ITW story, 19 year-old Casey denied the affair, saying the 28 year-old Dawson fabricated the entire thing to make money. But can he deny this? BH says ITW has proof to back up the whole thing.
Meanwhile, Jamie and Lynne are less than excited about the prospect of their youngest daughter marrying into this mess, of course. What better timing for this to come out, just before the two were to finally get hitched! ITW will have the whole story this week ...
So who's telling the truth here??? Will Casey be able to weasel his way out of this one?
Is Casey a total dog and should Jamie Lynn NOT marry him?
Or does it matter if Casey's a dog and should Jamie Lynn not marry him because she's too young to marry anyone?!

Woman lied about Casey Aldridge affair for the money
Posted: August 15th, 2008, 7:41am CDT by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
TMZ says that they have a source that says that 19 year-old Casey Aldridge didn’t cheat on his fiance Jamie Lynn Spears with that 28 year-old woman who is featured tongue kissing him on the cover of the latest In Touch. The photo was supposedly taken before he was with Jamie Lynn. The woman’s claim that she was with Casey as recently as March when Jamie Lynn was six months pregnant is also said to be false. Casey’s accuser is supposedly doing it for the money and infamy that come along with the tabloid coverage:Casey Aldridge is hotter than fish grease.
Our sources connected with Casey and Co. say he’s ballistic at reports that he had an affair while Jamie Lynn was six months pregnant.
As for the picture of Casey with Kelli Dawson (the Sienna Miller of the South), he claims it was taken before he even hooked up with J.L.
Casey has called the Spears clan to vent and they believe his story.
And Casey has a point … where he lives, there are just a bunch of one horse towns, so everybody knows everyone else’s business.
Casey says it’s all about Southern Sienna trying to make a buck.
[From TMZ]
You can see this random older chick claiming to have a thing with Casey just to get some notoriety and cash from a tabloid. On the other hand, people are willing to believe Casey was cheating on Jamie Lynn because he’s just 19 years old and no one expects him to settle down at this age. There have been rumors that he’s been fooling around on her for some time. Whether they’re true or not we may never know, but when this woman came out of the woodwork everyone believed the worst. The story was “confirmed” by Britney’s first 55 hour husband, Jason Alexander, who also needs some cash and whatever publicity he can still squeeze out of his brush with Britney.
OK! reports that Jamie Lynn and Casey are planning a fall wedding to take place in the backyard of their new home in Liberty, Mississippi. OK! said the same thing about a fall backyard wedding for Jennifer Aniston, so it’s possible that story is false. Jamie Lynn seems to have be taking her role as a new mom seriously. She’ll be responsible for that little girl for quite a while, she doesn’t need to get tied down into a marriage at the age of 17. Many people think that Casey, 19, and Jamie Lynn, 17, shouldn’t get married at their age even though they have a two month-old baby. They’re not though to be mature enough and they haven’t had enough life experiences. Other young couples have made it work though and stuck together through the hard times.
If this “Casey cheating” story is fake, hopefully that older woman trying to get some mileage out of her past relationship with Casey will be exposed as a fake. Unfortunately once these stories are out the accused gets branded a cheater and has to live with the rumors, which get much more coverage and attention than the corrections to the story.

Casey cheated

Casey Aldridge cheated on Jamie Lynn Spears
Ever since the news broke that she was pregnant, there have been rumors circulating that Jamie Lynn Spears’ fiancé and baby-daddy Casey Aldridge has been getting a little on the side. In the new issue of In Touch Weekly, 28-year-old Kelli Dawson claims Casey was cheating on Jamie Lynn as far as six months into the teen’s pregnancy. The couple met in late 2006 when Casey was still dating Jamie Lynn. According to Kelli, the two hit it off right away:
“We were both really attracted to each other. He totally instigated it and pursued me. His friends would tell me that he liked me, that he thought I was pretty.”
Britney Spears’ first husband Jason Alexander — the one she was married to for 8 hours — confirms that Casey and Kelli were indeed intimate:
“Kelli and Casey have been a couple on and off for a few years. They were a really tight couple, but I think it was hard for Kelli, having Jamie Lynn in the picture.”
Kelli claims she broke off the relationship with Casey just a few months before Jamie Lynn gave birth because “it just didn’t feel right.” So basically everything was cool when Jamie Lynn’s fetus still had a tail but once its skull fused Kelli’s morals kicked in:
“It just didn’t feel right. He had to deal with the baby coming, and it had to stop . . . even after we stopped having sex, we would still kiss occasionally.”
Wait since we’re dealing with Jamie Lynn Spears here, does that make Kelli a homewrecker or an apartmentwrecker? I’m leaning toward the latter. As for Casey, I’m not condoning what he did, but in his defense, when Jamie Lynn was six months pregnant she was pretty fat.
NOTE: Not only did Casey betray Jamie Lynn but rumor is he went grocery shopping last week at Target, “shattering” his 21-year relationship with Wal-Mart.

Jamie Lynn Spears’ fiance has cold feet, may be a cheater
Posted: August 13th, 2008, 12:03pm CDT by MSat
Tags: Casey Aldridge
The rumors surrounding teen mom Jamie Lynn Spears’ 19-year-old fiance and baby daddy, Casey Aldridge, are getting louder than ever. In Touch is reporting that Casey not only is having second thoughts about marrying Jamie Lynn because he feels “trapped,” but he’s also been fooling around with another woman for months.But insiders say the teen parents of baby Maddie are having serious relationship trouble- and now Casey is anxious about the nuptials, which are scheduled for the end of the year. “Casey is not happy right now,” reveals a pal. “He feels trapped. He’s just miserable.”
The pal says that Casey, 19, feels like he’s being forced to marry Jamie Lynn, 17, because they have a child together.
“He was told it’s the right thing to do,” the pal explained. “But it’s not the life he pictured for himself.”
[From In Touch print version, Aug. 18, 2008]
Oh, boo hoo. I’m sure this isn’t the life that Jamie Lynn, who was 16 at the time she got pregnant and enjoying a successful acting career, pictured for herself either. But she’s sucking it up and trying to make the best of it, unlike the panty waste who impregnated her. In Touch also has an exclusive interview with Kelli Dawson, Casey’s former girlfriend who claims that she was “hooking up” with Aldridge throughout Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy, until a few months before she delivered Maddie. Dawson claims that Jamie Lynn knew about the affair and was furious.
In an exclusive interview with In Touch, 28-year-old Kelli Dawson reveals that she and Casey, 19, were romantically involved — and were still sleeping together when Jamie Lynn, now 17, was six months pregnant with his child. No fleeting hookup, Casey and Kelli’s relationship was both real and lasting — and it grew in intensity, even as Jamie Lynn announced she was pregnant. And, Kelli says, they still meet up on a regular basis. “I see him all the time, at least once a week,” she shares.
The pair first met in November 2006, at the home of her sister, Kim Toller. At the time, Casey was already dating Jamie Lynn, but the sexual chemistry between Casey and Kelli was instant. “We were both really attracted to each other,” Kelli reveals. “He totally instigated it and pursued me. His friends would tell me that he liked me, that he thought I was pretty.” The couple saw each other a few times and “kissed randomly,” but it wasn’t really “hot and heavy,” Kelli admits, until the spring of 2007. Though Casey and Jamie Lynn were still involved, Kelli insists, “You never knew if they were broken up or not, because it changed from day to day!”
The pair didn’t bother to hide their relationship. “Kelli and Casey have been a couple on and off for a few years,” confirms Jason Alexander, Britney Spears’ first husband and a native of nearby Kentwood, La. “They were a really tight couple, but I think it was hard for Kelli, having Jamie Lynn in the picture.”
Kelli says she and Casey stopped sleeping together a few months before Jamie Lynn gave birth to their daughter, Maddie. “It just didn’t feel right,” she explains. “He had to deal with the baby coming, and it had to stop.” She says the last time the couple had sex together was in March but “even after we stopped having sex, we would still kiss occasionally.”
[From In Touch]
If this story is true, it’s a far cry from the “perfect” life Jamie Lynn blathered on about in her interview with OK! Magazine in July. I knew that was a big fake just by how awkward Casey looked in those photos. However, this is “In Touch” we’re talking about here- they rarely get anything right. The cover of that issue features a photo of Casey tongue kissing some skanky-looking ho, but it’s impossible to know when that photo was taken- just like it’s very difficult to know if this girl is telling the truth. The article does feature a quote from Britney Spears’ first husband, Jason Alexander, but that guy would say anything to be in the tabloids again. All I can say is, if Jamie Lynn has even a whiff that this story is partially true, she should not marry this kid.

Jamie Lynn Spears plans late fall wedding to take place at home
Posted: July 30th, 2008, 9:25am CDT by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
OK! Magazine made a reported million dollar deal with 17 year-old Jamie Lynn Spears for exclusive coverage of her pregnancy and new baby. The magazine now has details of her upcoming wedding, and that probably means we can expect to see the photos there too. She plans to have a low-key ceremony and reception at her new home in Liberty, Mississippi, where she currently lives with her fiance and the father of her baby, Casey Aldridge. Jamie Lynn’s sister, Britney, will be her maid of honor, and the festivities will take place in Jamie Lynn’s backyard. OK! notes that they’ll have plenty of space as the house sits on three acres:Despite their worldwide notoriety, the young couple won’t be swapping their vows at some 5-star celeb-filled resort, but will be sticking close to home. Jamie Lynn’s new house is in Liberty, Miss. — just 30 minutes from her mom Lynne Spears’ house, Serenity, in Kentwood, La. — and it sits on three acres, which is more than enough space to put up a tent for a private, late fall ceremony.
“She loves everything about the area where she lives. She’s not going to get married at some luxury resort in the Caribbean or a hotel in Beverly Hills,” a friend of the bride-to-be tells OK!. “Her own backyard with just the people who matter most is more Jamie Lynn’s style.”
And with the wedding approaching quickly, Jamie Lynn is planning to look her best on the big day. “She’s already down to her pre-pregnancy weight,” says the friend. “She has the cutest figure!”
Of course, big sis Britney Spears will be her Jamie Lynn’s maid of honor, and Casey’s sister Ashlee will be one of her bridesmaids. And tiny toddler Maddie will be an integral part of the wedding — possibly in a basket decorated with flowers and carried into the ceremony by the bride and groom’s mothers.
[From OK! Magazine]
The photos from her wedding will fetch good money for Jamie and it’s not like she’s got a lot of career options at this point after Zooey 101. Is it a good move for her to publicize her wedding though? There were rumors that she was reluctant to pose for photos with her newborn, Maddie, because she didn’t want the media exposure, but that she had no choice because the contract was already signed. It’s also not the wisest move to get married at 17, even if you already have a baby with someone. There’s a lot of life experience lacking and you may end up missing things you could have done in your 20s. Last week the Enquirer had a story that Jamie Lynn and Casey were fighting over calls to another woman she found in his cell phone records. Even if that wasn’t true, it’s hard to believe that these two are ready to commit the rest of their lives to each other.

Did Jamie Lynn call off the wedding?
Posted: June 11th, 2008, 4:14pm CDT by JayBird
Tags: Casey Aldridge
There have been reports for several months that things aren’t going well in the relationship between Jamie Lynn Spears and boyfriend/soon-to-be baby daddy Casey Aldridge. And why should they be going well? They’re 17 and 19 years old – few relationships work out well at that age. Unfortunately for their relationship, the two are expecting a baby together, and got engaged a few months ago. According to Star (so take it with a grain of salt) Jamie Lynn has called off the wedding.
Jamie Lynn Spear’s baby joy turns to tears because her wedding to Casey Aldridge is off! In the new issue of Star, on newsstands now, we break the exclusive news that the pregnant teenager has called off her wedding. Ever since the Zoey 101 made the shocking announcement that she’s pregnant, her mom, Lynne Spears, has been pushing her to marry baby daddy Casey.
And while it seems like the teen mom-to-be has been trying her best to do the right thing, insiders tell Star that the tension between the two young parents-to-be has become so intense that it’s doubtful they will ever tie the knot.
“Jamie Lynn and Casey have been fighting non-stop about everything, from what to name the baby to what to eat for dinner,” a source tells Star. “And now she’s called off their wedding plans.”
[From Star]
The magazine also claims that Jamie Lynn has moved out of the home she bought and back into her mom’s home in Kentwood, Louisiana. They also say both mom Lynne and dad Jamie have left Los Angeles and are at home with Jamie Lynn, helping her out. Both parents – who are divorced – have spent an inordinate amount of time with Britney in L.A. recently – even on Jamie Lynn’s birthday.
It’s good that they’re both by their youngest daughter’s side right now. Star says the family is busy decorating the nursery in Lynne’s home. They say that Casey is, “in and out,” – implying that the couple are still together, but no longer engaged. Given their ages and the situation they’re in, it sounds like not planning a wedding is the best thing for right now. A baby at the age of 17 is a big enough challenge – negotiating the ins and outs of marriage can wait.

Jamie Lynn’s fiance plans to enlist in the National Guard
Posted: June 6th, 2008, 1:39pm CDT by JayBird
Tags: Casey Aldridge
Apparently Jamie Lynn Spears’ fiancé Casey Aldridge doesn’t want her to be the only one who brings home the bacon. Aldridge plans to contribute some pork of his own earning, by joining the National Guard. Right now the 19-year-old works as a day laborer. Probably not the kind of guy Jamie Lynn’s parents had in mind for her. But it appears Aldridge isn’t content to live off of Jamie Lynn, despite all the speculation to the contrary. So he’s decided to join up, even though one third of Mississippi’s National Guard gets deployed to Iraq.
Casey Aldridge wants to be all that he can be - by joining the Army National Guard after Jamie Lynn Spears delivers their baby, sources say. The strapping 19-year-old day laborer has met with an Army recruiter several times, but he’s terrified to tell his 17-year-old fiancée, insiders tell the Enquirer.
“Casey wants to enlist in the National Guard after the baby is born. But he’s kept his plans secret from Jamie Lynn - and there’s no doubt she’s going to blow sky-high when she finds out,” a close source said.
“Joining the military has been a dream of Casey’s since long before Jamie Lynn came into the picture.” With “Zoey 101″ star Jamie Lynn’s acting career up in the air, Casey thinks the National Guard is a good career choice, according to insiders.
“Joining the National Guard appeals to Casey’s sense of adventure and patriotism,” said the close source.
[From the National Enquirer, June 16, 2008 print ed.]
A couple of thoughts here. First, if you’re terrified of telling your fiancée, you’re probably not ready to get married. And if you’re terrified of a 17-year-old girl, you’re probably not going to make the greatest soldier. Lastly, if you’re terrified to tell aforementioned 17-year-old pregnant fiancée because she’s “going to blow sky-high,” waiting until she finds out from the National Enquirer is a great way to get yourself locked out of the house and all your clothes set on fire. At least that’s the route I’d be going.
Jaime Lynn has managed to stay away from the cameras lately – header photo is an older picture of Jamie Lynn and Casey pre-pregnancy.

Paparazzo Charged With Stalking Jamie Lynn Spears
Posted: June 5th, 2008, 9:57am CDT by Spicy Pants
Tags: Casey Aldridge
A paparazzo, Edwin Merino, 30, has been arrested and charged with stalking Jamie Lynn Spears and the father of her baby, Casey Aldridge, in Liberty, Mississippi.
Merino, denies that he was stalking the younger Spears, but insists he was singled out because he was the only photographer in the small town.
“I’ve seen the young man Casey in pictures. I haven’t worked on them myself. The first time I got a good look at him was in court,” said Merino.
He admits he followed the couple for four days while in Liberty, but insists he kept his distance and used a long lens camera. He adds that he didn’t get any good shots of Jamie Lynn during his time in Liberty, until he went to Walmart to buy some deodorant.
“The one picture I got was kind of by luck. I got lucky when I saw them at Wal-Mart when I was buying deodorant.”
The cameraman posted bond Tuesday and is scheduled to appear in court next week. All in all he says his trip was “a waste.”
Merino is the same photographer who once captured older sister Britney Spears without any panties on. That must have been the high point of his career. So of course this trip was a waste, he was probably hoping for exclusive upskirt uterus shots of Jamie Lynn or something.

Jamie Lynn fighting nonstop with Casey
Posted: May 30th, 2008, 3:44pm CDT by JayBird
Tags: Casey Aldridge
According to the National Enquirer, Jamie Lynn Spears and fiancé Casey Aldridge are fighting like cats and dogs. They can’t agree on simple things, from where to eat dinner to what to name the baby. The Enquirer makes it sound like Casey is pretty shrewd. Apparently he wants to marry Jamie Lynn before the baby is born – but not for any traditional reason. If he does that, he can have more control over the baby’s first photos and general press.
The couple is battling over everything from what to name the baby to what kind of wedding they’ll have. The “Zoey 101″ star wants to name the baby girl “Cailynn” (pronounced Kay-Lynn) and Casey wants “Cassie,” a derivative of his name, according to an insider.
“Jamie Lynn is living in a state of fear over not knowing what to expect after she becomes a mother, but luckily she has her mom to lean on for support,” continued the insider. “Still, when Casey doesn’t give Jamie Lynn her way for even simple things like where to eat out, she starts crying and shouting at him, and it almost always turns into a war of words. Their ongoing battles have taken their toll on Jamie Lynn and have pushed her to a near-breaking point.”
Jamie Lynn’s most recent wave of fighting with Casey, 19, comes just after the two sealed the deal on a Mississippi country home they’ll share with their new arrival. But right now, they can’t even agree on a wedding date.
“Casey wants to marry Jamie Lynn before the baby is born so he can have some control over the rights to the baby’s first photos that will be sold. He wants to be in on any money deals that are made by Jamie Lynn and her mom,” said the source.
[From the National Enquirer, June 9 2008 print ed]
The Enquirer also says that Jamie Lynn doesn’t want Casey in the delivery room. Instead she wants her mom there, and she wants Lynn Spears to cut the umbilical cord. Their source goes on to add that Jamie Lynn is really stressed and unhappy during what should be one of the happiest times in her life.
I’d argue that if you’re a pregnant teenager, it’s not supposed to be the happiest time of your life. Maybe if she were ten years older. But being pregnant at 17 tends to make for a lot of stress and arguments. Jamie Lynn has got it much better than most girls in her situation. Either way, it seems pretty clear that she shouldn’t marry Casey Aldridge.
Jamie Lynn and Casey are shown on 4/4/08, thanks to Splash News.

Wedding delayed

Jamie Lynn Spears and Casey Aldridge leaving a Wal-Mart in McComb, MS (5/26)Jamie Lynn Spears wants to push back her wedding to Casey Aldridge because she doesn’t want to get married “with a big bump” under her dress. In Touch Weekly says:
Jamie Lynn and Casey are expected to move into their new home soon but still have not set a wedding date. “I don’t want to get married with a big bump under my dress,” a witness heard Jamie Lynn say while shopping. There are also whispers that tension remains between Jamie Lynn and her parents over the marriage.
However, her sister Britney is impressed with how well Jamie Lynn is coping. “I am so proud of my sister,” Britney was recently overheard saying. “She seems to really have it all together.”
Jamie Lynn and Casey have reportedly picked out the name for the little one, whenever she does make her grand entrance into the world. According to the weekly entertainment magazine their favorite name that they have picked out so far is Emma Jean.
Is getting married with a “big bump under her dress” really the most pressing thing Jamie should be worrying about at her wedding? I’d think finding the right caliber shells for her shotgun might be a little higher on the list. And is anyone else even slightly surprised she’s decided to name her baby Emma Jean? It’s reasonable to assume that if the baby had turned out to be a boy, she would have chosen between the names Billy Bob, Willy Mo, and Broken Condom.

Pregnant Jamie Lynn Spears hurt during drunken fight at a party
Posted: April 11th, 2008, 1:39pm CDT by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
This week’s National Enquirer reports that Jamie Lynn’s fiance, Casey Aldridge, 18, was drinking heavily at a party and that pregnant Jamie Lynn stepped in to try and stop a fight between two of his friends. Fists were flying and Jamie Lynn got elbowed hard in the mouth. She was crying and screaming, and the way Casey responded was to try and get her to shut up:According to a new report from The National Enquirer, Jamie Lynn was injured when she attempted to break up a fight between two of Casey’s friends:
“Jamie Lynn decided she could break it up, but got elbowed hard in the mouth by one of the boy,” says an eyewitness. “She went crazy, screaming at everyone….crying, screaming, and covering her mouth.”
“Casey was so drunk, he just kept trying to hush her up.”
[From popcrunch]
Jamie Lynn just turned 17, and she’s pregnant, but it’s not like she was said to be drinking at the party. She probably thought she could stop the fight since she was one of the only sober people there and assumed that the guys would respect a pregnant woman. Either they didn’t see her or she just got in the way, because she ended up hurt.
Why she was even at a party were teens were drinking is up to question, and given the way the night unfolded it clearly wasn’t a good place for a pregnant girl to be hanging out. At least she’s been trying to lead a quiet life in Louisiana, but she’s still getting into some trouble there. Her fiance was even said to have threatened photographers with a gun he had in his four wheeler. I hope Jamie Lynn makes better choices in life soon, because she’s about to have a baby who depends on her. As it is, she’s hanging out with a young crowd that’s acting their age, which is much too young to be responsible for a child.
Jamie Lynn Spears is shown leaving Connie’s Jewelry and Gifts in Kentwood, LA on 4/9/08, where she was said to have had her engagement ring resized to fit her swelling fingers. I think it was the National Enquirer that reported a few weeks back that she was good friends with a girl who worked there and liked to stop and chat with her during the day.

Casey Aldridge was pissed at a pap who allegedly shot this video on private property — Jamie says it was private, the pap says it wasn’t. Anywho, watch closely as Casey takes the gun from his lap and kinda points it in the direction of the pap, telling him to get the hell on a public road. Yessir!
I looked at the video several times and couldn’t see this gun they are pointing at in big red letters, but that doesn’t mean it’s not there. The thing that struck me most about this video is that Jamie Lynn’s boyfriend is a bona fide hillbilly: Riding around in a 4-wheeler with a dog and a cooler in the back- and that accent is straight out of “Deliverance.” If Jamie-Lynn marries this kid, she can forget about her acting career– instead, I see NASCAR Sundays, Coors Light party balls, and domestic disturbance calls to the trailer park in her future. Jesus H. Christ, the Spears girls have abominable taste in men, don’t they?
Jamie Lynn and Casey are shown out on her 17th birthday on 4/4/08, thanks to Splash News.

Friend of Lil’ Romeo worries he is father of Jamie Lynn’s baby

Jamie Lynn out with Britney on October 7, 2007
A friend of rapper Lil’ Romeo supposed had a fling with Jamie Lynn Spears last year and is worried that he might be the father of her baby-to-be. Questionable source In Touch reports that someone close to the situation told them that this guy is hurt that Jamie Lynn blew him off after their brief romance, and that he’s upset she never contacted him to tell him of her pregnancy. As far as this guy is concerned, it could possibly be his.In Touch also reports that Jamie Lynn dated ‘Lil Romeo briefly, but there is no allegation that he could be the father of her baby. There’s also another story that the 16 year-old was the victim of a predatory producer on her Nickelodeon show, Zoey 101, and that the unnamed much older man could be responsible for her pregnancy:
When Jamie Lynn fought with Casey, she became involved with a teenage pal of Lil’ Romeo’s, a confidant alleges. When the teenager heard Jamie Lynn was pregnant, “He was scared because they didn’t use protection,” the insider says…
Like most teenage girls, Jamie Lynn was often unsure of herself and her boyfriend Casey, 18, didn’t help matters. “Jamie Lynn said she and Casey were having serious problems and she was upset about it,” says the insider. “She said Casey cheated on her all the time, and that she couldn’t trust him.”
Deeply upset, Jamie Lynn turned to her new male friend for support and advice - and before long, the insider alleges things turned physicial. “The would fool around at his mother’s house. He was totally in awe of her,” the insider claims. “He said that she was very experienced and had a great body. He was in heaven.”
But it didn’t last long. “He was totoally upset but figured she had gotten back together with Casey,” says the insider. When the boy learned Jamie Lynn was pregnant, the insider says “he was scared” that he might be the father. But Jamie Lynn never contacted him, and his fears turned to hurt. “He feels like she brushed him off.”
[From In Touch, print edition, March 3, 2008. First paragraph is in an inset article, which is why it doesn’t lead naturally into the rest of the story]
The National Enquirer has an article this week that semi-supports this story. They claim to have an insider source who says that in a moment of anger Jamie Lynn confessed to Casey that he might not be the father of her baby. She later tried to take it back, but the damage was already done. What’s more is that Kevin Federline, Casey’s troubled sister Britney’s ex husband, is said to have advised Casey to get a paternity test to determine if he is the father of the child once it is born.
Jamie Lynn is said to be pressuring Casey to marry her, but he is said to be reluctant given their issues and the fact that he’s not sure he’s the baby’s father.
Casey does seem to be around for the long haul, though. In Touch reports that he was spotted looking for a home with Jamie Lynn and her mother on February 18. They report that “The couple spent two hours negotiating with real estate agents to purchase the estimated $300,000 home in a gated community near Macomb, Mississippi, 20 minutes from Kentwood” [LA, where Jamie Lynn’s parents live.]
Jamie Lynn is reportedly due soon, around March 7, but that may be early as photos in the tabloids make it seem like she’s not really showing yet, but it’s hard to tell with the clothing she wears. That would make this story plausible if she was with this other guy in June of last year.
Britney and Jamie Lynn are shown out on 10/7/07, thanks to Splash News.

The reported baby-daddy to Jamie Lynn Spears is rumored to be a "serial cheater," who has stepped out on his young girlfriend in the past. In fact, according to a source, "This past spring Casey was forced to tell Jamie Lynn that he'd cheated on her and gotten that girl pregnant." Eventually, the young woman miscarried. However, it was this revelation that caused Jamie Lynn to decide to end things with Casey. That is, until he got her pregnant. Why do dumb people never seem to have fertility problems? Sigh.

Lynne Spears didn’t want Jamie Lynn to have the baby; it’s a girl due March 7
Posted: January 2nd, 2008, 6:14am CST by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
I read the much-anticipated tabloids’ take on 16 year-old Jamie Lynn Spears’ pregnancy, which she announced through celeb-friendly OK! Magazine, and they have more details that suggest that she was fibbing to OK! We already reported on the news that she’s more than just three months’ pregnant as she claims and that it is suspected that her on-off boyfriend Casey Aldridge is not the father. (Most of you have heard that she may have been the victim of an older producer on her tween-oriented series Zoey 101, and that he could be the father of her baby.)Star focuses on Casey, as we reported, and how he was fooling around behind Jamie Lynn’s back and may have even fathered another young woman’s baby while he was dating her.
The National Enquirer also reports that Casey is a cheater, and says that Jamie Lynn is due on March 7, which would make her six months’ pregnant, not three as she claims. They say that her mother Lynne Spears didn’t want her to have the baby at first. They skirt around the topic of abortion, but it seems clear that’s what they mean. It was Casey who talked Jamie Lynn into keeping the baby, they claim:
Jamie Lynn Spears’ baby is due March 7 - and an ultrasound shows that it’s a girl, the Enquirer has learned exclusively. And while her mother demanded she not keep the baby, Jamie Lynn refused - and how the 16-year-old has set her heart on marrying the baby’s father, boyfriend Casey Aldridge, a close source reveals.
“Jamie Lynn learned she was pregnant in late July, but her mother Lynne didn’t want anyone to know,” the source told The Enquirer…
“To keep is quiet, Lynne whisked Jamie Lynn from California back to her home in Kentwood, LA, as soon as she finished filming… Zoey 101 in August.
“The Lynne demanded that Jamie Lynn not keep that baby. At first, Jamie Lynn agreed, but then Casey talked her into keeping the baby.
Determined to have her way, Jamie Lynn threatened to run away, marry Casey, who’s 18, and go live with her big sister Britney, said another insider.
Lynne, 55, dropped her demand, but she’s suspicious of Casey’s motives, sources say.
“Lynnes doesn’t believe Casey loves Jaime Lynn, even though he wants to marry her. She thinks he got Jamie Lynn pregnant on purpose for money and the fame of being the father of her baby,” said the source.”
[From The National Enquirer, print edition, January 7, 2008]
How complicated can this story get? Jamie Lynn wanted to get married to Casey and move in with Britney, and that would have been entirely possible if they could have hired an organization expert and cleaning team to sanitize the mansion. Britney doesn’t live there anyway.
I guess it’s not surprising that Lynne wanted Jamie Lynn to have an abortion, even though the family is reportedly Southern Baptist and pro-life. I’m pro-choice, but understand the strong feelings that people have on both sides. To me it is an individual choice, although I respect the pro-life stance and belief that it’s wrong not to carry a pregnancy to term. My opinion on it changed quite a bit after I had my own baby, and I’ve had disagreements with family members about this very emotionally-charged issue.
It’s just a sad situation all around. Hopefully this baby will get the love and care it deserves and everything will work out for the best, no matter who is the father. It seems like Casey at least thinks he’s the dad if he’s supporting Jamie Lynn so much. Either way, once Jamie Lynn’s daughter reaches googling age she’ll be able to find out that her grandmother didn’t want her mom to have her. Maybe she’ll have other reasons to hate her by then anyway.
Jamie Lynn and Lynne Spears are shown at the LA Airport on 10/6/07, thanks to Splash News. Jamie Lynn would have been a few months’ pregnant by then, but it’s hard to tell.

Is Casey Aldridge the father of Jamie Lynn Spears’ baby?
Posted: December 27th, 2007, 4:32am CST by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
Crazy Days and Nights ran a blind item last month that suggested that one of the producers of Jamie Lynn’s show Zoey 101 was the father of her baby and that he was old enough to be her grandfather. They also said that producers were freaking out and trying to find a boyfriend they could pin the pregnancy on.This weeks’ Star Magazine is set to report that the father of Jamie Lynn’s baby is suspected to be an “older executive” on her show who will face statutory rape charges if the news came to light. Casey Aldridge is not the father and hasn’t steadily dated Jamie Lynn, Star claims. Casey has another girlfriend and is said to be being paid to keep his mouth shut.
Star magazine insists that the teenager may not be the dad - and that Spears’ friends and family think it is an older man who would face statutory rape charges.
Friends have said that Jamie Lynn was no longer even seeing Casey - and family members told Star that they believe the real father is a much older executive at her children’s TV show ‘Zoey 101′.
“Casey is being paid off to be the family’s fall guy while the real father remains unidentified,” Star magazine insists.
They say the real reason is that an older man could be charged with statutory rape if revealed to be the father of an under-aged girl’s baby.
But in Jamie Lynn’s home state of Louisiana, Casey would escape charges because a 16-year-old can legally have sex with someone less than two years older than her. “Conveniently, Casey falls under the bar by just 26 days.
“The man many suspect is the father, however, would face charges and probably prison time if he were to come forward and admit he had sex with her,” Star magazine states.
The magazine quotes “two separate Spears family insiders” who believe the father is someone who works on Jamie Lynn’s kids’ show. “Jamie Lynn has been working on Zoey since she was 13,” one of the sources said. “In Hollywood, little girls grow up fast, and she is no exception.
“With everything that has gone on in her family, she needed someone to look up to.
“But the man she found seems to have completely taken advantage of her.”
Another family source added: “Some of us have doubts as to the legitimacy of the claim that Casey is the father.
“Before the news of the pregnancy, how often did you see them together?
“Jamie Lynn has dated Casey on and off over the past two years.
“But it was not steady. In fact, she was looking to date Kevin Federline’s brother about a year ago.
“Jamie Lynn went through a time of partying, and Casey was just a part of that.”
[From Showbiz Spy]
They also say that Jamie Lynn is six months pregnant, not three, and that Casey got a different girl pregnant this year and had to confess to Jamie Lynn. Casey has another girlfriend, they claim, and has made no secret of the fact that he’s dating her:
In fact, Star claims he had a pregnancy scare with a different girl and had to confess to Jamie Lynn. “Casey is a serial cheater who has lied to Jamie Lynn time and time again,” a close friend told the magazine. “This past spring, he was forced to tell Jamie Lynn that he’d cheated on her and gotten that girl pregnant.”
In fact, Star even insists Casey was openly dating yet another girl at the same time as he was supposed to be romancing Spears. “Yes, my sister is dating Casey - they’ve been dating for a while,” said Kevin Seals of his sister Whitney Seals.
“I know Jamie Lynn was real jealous about Whitney’s relationship with Casey.”
[From Showbizspy]
According to this article it sounds like it’s still possible that Casey is the father, but that it’s more likely to be this unnamed producer on her show who took advantage of her. There are at least seven “directors” of Zoey 101 listed on IMDB, and not all of them have ages or biographical data, so it would be pointless to speculate who the father might be. If it’s true that an older man who worked with young Jamie Lynn was preying on her like that, he needs to go to jail. As it is, he’s probably trying to lay low, just like Casey has been doing. The tabloids aren’t going to let up on this one and I bet that guy’s identity will be revealed soon.

Details from The OK! Interview with Jamie Lynn Spears; Casey is 18
Posted: December 21st, 2007, 7:19am CST by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
I finally have access to the OK! Interview with Jamie Lynn and Lynne Spears, and there are some details about Casey and Jamie Lynn’s relationship that I haven’t read in other sources yet. There’s also a recent interview with Casey’s uncle that makes it clear Casey is 18, not 19, and that he’s just a month less than two years older than Jamie Lynn. That means that their relationship would not be classified as statutory rape in Louisiana, but that it is legally a misdemeanor in California.1. Jamie Lynn and Casey are not living together, according to statements she gave to OK! Magazine.
Of course she would deny this when asked directly, but this is what she told OK! She also said she had to call him to tell him she was pregnant and that they had to meet to talk about it the next day, so it doesn’t sound like they were living together.Are you guys living together?
No, I live with my mom. He lives with his parents. For now, that’s the best thing to do. We need to focus on the baby right now.[From OK! Magazine, print edition, December 31, 2007]
2. Casey’s birthday is April 29, 1989, which makes him 18. Jamie Lynn’s birthday is April 4, 1991, which makes her 16. They are just under two years apart.
Casey’s uncle told CelebTV that he was born on that date, and his birthday was confirmed with the Mississippi Department of Motor Vehicles.
As we mentioned above, this means that this relationship does not meets the two year age difference cutoff for possible prosecution under Louisiana law, but that under California law it is a misdemeanor that could result in up to one year in county jail.
Here is a recap of the laws on statutory rape in the applicable states:
Louisiana law defines this unlawful carnal knowledge as “sexual intercourse with consent between someone age 19 or older and someone between age 12 and 17.”
In Louisiana a person can only legally consent to sex at age 17. If aged 15 or 16, the other person involved must be no more than two years older for the act to be considered legal…
The Californian Penal Code states that any person who engages in an act of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor under 18 who is not more than three year younger than the perpetrator, is guilty of a misdemeanour and faces up to one year in a county jail.
[From The Daily Mail]
3. Jamie Lynn said she met Casey in church when she was 14, but that they were “friends first.” They’ve been dating for two and a half years, which means that when they started dating she was 14 and he was 16.
How long have you and Casey been together?
This Christmas, it’ll be about two and a half years, I think. At first, I was just friends with him; I’ve been friends with him since I was about 14. Then we started dating. I met him at church. He came there with a friend; I came there with a friend. We started talking and then started hanging out.[From OK! Magazine, print edition, December 31, 2007]
4. Casey and Jamie Lynn both told her mother together about her pregnancy
Jamie Lynn says the first person she told of her pregnancy was “probably Casey,” and that she and Casey told her mom that she was pregnant. She also said she decided to keep the baby because she’s “trying to do the right thing.”
Who did you call first when your pregnancy was confirmed?
It was probably Casey. It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected. I was in a complete and total shock and so was he.When did you see him after finding out?
The next day, he wanted to meet me in person to talk about what we had to do. It was something we couldn’t really talk about over the phone. We met and talked about everything and decided what we wanted to do. He was 100 percent supportive, and we figured it out.Was this planned?
Oh, it was a big shock.
Why did you decide to keep the baby?
I think my whole life I would have to live with knowing what I did or what I didn’t do. I’m trying to do the right thing. I think that this is what is going to make me happy in the end.
Other people your age might not be brave enough to take on this kind of commitment…
Well, I was scared at first. I took the time to think about it for myself, and I though: “What would be right for me?” I’m the one who has to live with it for the rest of my life. I put myself in this position, an adult position, so I have to act like an adult and take responsibility for what I did. I have really become at peace with the whole situation, and I think it’s the right thing for me to do. It’s a personal decision that everyone would have to make for themselves. This one is just right for me….What was [your mom’s] reaction when you told her you were pregnant?
She didn’t really say anything at first. She just kind of looked at me. It was me and Casey that told her. She didn’t believe us. But then she looked at Casey and he’s always been very straightforward, and then she knew it was real. She was very upset because it wasn’t what she expected at all. A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive.So if Casey and Jamie Lynn are separated as this point, as has been rumored, they were at least close enough when they found out she was pregnant to tell her mother. Jamie Lynn also said in the interview that Casey will make a great father, and that she wants to raise the baby in Louisiana so “it can be around my mom and Casey’s family.”

Does Casey Aldridge Have "Felony Carnal Knowledge" of Jamie Lynn Spears?
Posted: December 20th, 2007, 11:47am CST
Tags: Casey Aldridge
Spring break! WHOOOOOOOOOOOO! Jamie Lynn Spears appears to be a girl about to go wild here, pictured with her baby-daddy-to-be, Casey Aldridge. And now that the cat is out of the bag that not only has the sixteen-year-old been sexually active with her boyfriend of nearly two and a half years (as she claims), she's pregnant. This, of course, leads to the question of Casey's age, which is rumored to be eighteen or nineteen, and also where the two consummated their relationship. If the young couple got it on in Louisiana, where Jamie Lynn resides part of the year, while Casey was nineteen, then Aldridge could possibly be charged with what is referred to as "felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile," meaning, "sexual intercourse with consent between someone age 19 or older and someone between age 12 and 17." It's unclear as to whether or not an investigation into the circumstances surrounding Jamie Lynn's pregnancy will ensue, but I'm pretty sure they'll both be found guilty of bad judgment. That's right, Old Aunt Lisa has spoken! You kids and your shenanigans. Stay in school, dammit! Pre-marital sex leads straight into the fiery bowels of hell! Also, do as I say, not as I do.

Can Casey Aldridge be charged with statutory rape for Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy?
Posted: December 20th, 2007, 9:51am CST by Celebitchy
Tags: Casey Aldridge
There’s been a lot of debate as to whether Casey Aldridge, who is thought to be 19, can be brought up on statutory rape charges for getting his 16 year-old maybe-ex girlfriend, Jamie Lynn Spears, pregnant. I found three articles on this subject today and they predictably vary widely in their assessment of the possibility of prosecution for Casey. It depends how old he really is, with some reports saying he’s just 18, and where the baby was conceived, with Louisiana having tougher statutory rape laws. It seems that it’s not likely that he’ll be charged, but since this is such a high profile case there may be pressure from authorities.Statutory rape laws have the potential for abuse when applied to consensual sex among teens, most notably in the recent case of a Georgia teen whose harsh sentence was eventually overturned. Genarlow Wilson spent two years in jail out of a mandatory ten year sentence for having consensual oral sex with a 15 year old girl at a party when he was just 17. The law was changed after widespread public pressure and he was finally freed this October.
So while a sexual relationship between a 19 year-old boy and a 16 year-old girl is technically illegal, it was consensual and there’s a fine line in these type of cases.
Here are the different legal and personal opinions in the news on this case today.
The Daily Mail: Casey could get up to 10 years in jail
The boyfriend of Jamie Lynn Spears could face statutory rape charges after getting Britney Spears’ sister pregnant at 16, it has been revealed.
And Casey Aldridge, 19, could face up to 10 years if convicted, possibly with hard labour.
Fox News reports that if the baby was conceived in Spears’ home state of Louisiana, the act could technically be considered “felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile.”
Louisiana law defines this unlawful carnal knowledge as “sexual intercourse with consent between someone age 19 or older and someone between age 12 and 17.”
In Louisiana a person can only legally consent to sex at age 17. If aged 15 or 16, the other person involved must be no more than two years older for the act to be considered legal.
But Aldridge wouldn’t fare much better if the “carnal” act happened in California, where Spears lives while on the set of her Nickelodeon TV show Zoey 101.
The Californian Penal Code states that any person who engages in an act of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor under 18 who is not more than three year younger than the perpetrator, is guilty of a misdemeanour and faces up to one year in a county jail.
But Californian criminal defence attorney Jim Hammer says: “If Aldridge is actually more than three years older he could be up for a felony, which carries a maximum three years in prison.”
US Weekly: It’s possible he could be charged, but Lousiana authorities aren’t looking into it
Jamie Lynn Spears’ pregnancy, at age 16, has raised legal questions because of Casey Aldridge’s age.
Aldridge is believed to be 18 or 19.
There is still no word on where the sexual intercourse took place.
However, if it happened in Spears’ home state of Louisiana, and if Aldridge was 19 at the time, he could be charged with what the state calls “felony carnal knowledge of a juvenile,” which is defined as “sexual intercourse wi
