Jamie Lynn Spears has had a year filled with many different highs and lows. Earlier in the year, her daughter Maddie, then 8, accidentally steered her all-terrain vehicle into a pond, resulting in a terrifying accident could have just as easily turned fatal. However, she was saved by two people who courageously rushed in to save her. Although Spears solely refers to her daughter’s saviors as angels, they are reportedly paramedics John Fortner and Victoria Ragoonath. Thankfully, Maddie has since recovered fully from the accident and was able to celebrate her ninth birthday in complete health. Spears posted; “Thank God for these amazing people, and thank you God for your amazing grace,” Spears wrote then. “We are so blessed today, and everyday with this little angel! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MADDIE.” in reference to her daughters birthday after the miraculous recovery.
After the the turbulent times caused by the accident, Jamie Lynn and her husband, Jamie Watson luckily get to end the year on a much happier note. They recently announced that they will be expecting their first child together and that Maddie will finally be able to be a big sister.
In reference to the past year, Jamie Lynn said; “2017 was filled with some of the biggest challenges of my life, as well as some of the biggest blessings, so I made a choice to lay low this year to focus on truly becoming my best self as a person and as an artist. During that time, I continued working on my music and telling my story, which has created some of my most honest work and I CAN’T wait to share that with you all very soon.”
