Who is Jamie Spears, Britney Spears' little sister who the singer just called out in conservatorship battle
Jamie Lynn was listed as the trustee of Britney’s SJB Revocable Trust
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Jamie Lynn Spears, sister to the "Toxic" singer, Britney Spears, rose to the limelight when she landed the role of "Zoey Brooks" from Nickelodeon’s hit show, "Zoey 101," in 2004.
Since 2002, the two could be seen attending events together as Britney’s musical career progressed throughout the years. She stated in a 2016 interview with WFAA, "[t]ruthfully, my childhood was so fun. Everything was new and everything was like Christmas because we were just from this small town and my sister had amazing success. It was so amazing to see my sister reach such heights."
Nickelodeon’s "Zoey 101" was one of the highest-ranked shows in the 2000s and had wrapped up its final season before Jamie Lynn in 2007 revealed that she and her then-boyfriend and later-to-be fiancé, Casey Aldridge, were expecting their first child, causing speculation that the show had been cancelled due to her pregnancy.

After the show’s final season, Jamie Lynn—who didn’t know that she was yet pregnant—auditioned at the age of 16 for the role of Bella Swan in "Twilight" but Kristen Stewart was casted instead.
With concerns about the paparazzi following Spears’ every move during her pregnancy, she and her fiancé, Casey, moved to Liberty, Mississippi in an attempt to avoid tabloid coverage of her pregnancy, but was unsuccessful in doing so. Spears and her family filed a complaint against paparazzo Edwin Merrino for allegedly stalking Spears and her family, but he was released later that day after posting bond.
In June 19, 2008, Jamie Lynn gave birth to her daughter, Maddie, at the age of 17, then left the public eye until 2013. She and her fiancé called off their engagement in March 2009, prompting her to move out in later in December. The two mended their relationship in August 2010, only for it to end four months later in November.
