There is a new baby in the Spears clan! Jamie Lynn Spears and her fiancé Casey Aldridge welcomed a baby girl Thursday morning.

PEOPLE confirms exclusively that the baby was named Maddie Briann.

“Just the family was there,” says a source about the birth around 9:30 a.m. at a hospital in Mississippi, near her Louisiana hometown. “Everyone is healthy and happy.”

Jamie Lynn’s sister Britney, father Jamie and brother Bryan flew in Wednesday to be with her for the birth; her mother Lynne had been with her helping her get ready for the baby.

Since announcing her pregnancy in December, Britney’s little sister has retreated from the bright lights of Hollywood, opting for the comforts of her hometown of Kentwood, La.

With her Nickelodeon show Zoey 101 already ended, Jamie Lynn went home to prepare for the birth of her baby. The actress, 17, and Aldridge, 19, got engaged in March. Recently, the couple purchased a three-bedroom home in Liberty, Miss., where Aldridge went to high school.

Over the last few months, Spears has kept busy by passing her GED exam, preparing the nursery and attending multiple baby showers.

Jamie Lynn’s Zoey 101 costar, Erin Sanders, told PEOPLE earlier this year that the actress will be a fun mother.

“She is just a very good-hearted and warm person,” he said. “We would always hang out on the set and she is a lot of fun, so I think she’s going to be an easygoing, fun mom.”

A Chicago jury of nine men and three women found singer R. Kelly not guilty on all counts at his child pornography trial Friday.

He faced 4 to 15 years in prison.

The case — involving 14 criminal counts of alleged taped sex acts with an underage girl — went to jurors on Thursday after a month-long trial.

The prosecution’s main witness, Lisa Van Allen, claimed to have had three-way sex with the singer and the alleged victim — Kelly’s goddaughter — who was 13 or 14-years-old when the sex tape was made in 1998.

Both Kelly, 41, and the victim denied they appeared in the tape (which was played for the jury). Neither took the stand during the trial.

“During this trial we have heard from 14 people that personally identified [the girl]. Twelve of them identified R. Kelly,” prosecutor Robert Heilingoetter said in his closing argument.

The defense maintained the 27-minute tape — which the jurors were shown — is an elaborate fake. (Defense attorneys argued that the man on the tape didn’t have a large mole on his back, as Kelly does.)

Kelly’s attorney called Van Allen “a liar” and “an extortionist.”
