Police Address Cause of Alec Baldwin, Stephen Baldwin’s Car Accident

Jamie Lynn Spears' then-8-year-old daughter Maddie Aldridge was driving an ATV in February 2017 when she accidentally flipped it into a pond near their Louisiana home, leaving her submerged under water for minutes. 

"When we were finally able to get her out of the water and I saw her and then the first responders took her from me, we thought she was gone," Jamie Lynn recalled on a 2020 episode of Maria Menounos Better Together podcast. "We thought we'd lost our daughter."

Though the family wasn't sure what sort of damage had been done, Maddie was awake and talking two days later. A few weeks after that, she was back to her normal routine. 

"God gave me the blessing of giving me my daughter back," Jamie Lynn continued. "I lost her and I got her back."
