Jamie Lynn Spears‘ 8-year-old daughter, Maddie, was reportedly involved in an ATV accident during a hunting trip in Kentwood, Louisiana over the weekend that left her critically injured, and the star’s father, Jamie Spears, is speaking out.

TMZ reports that Maddie was underwater for several minutes and unconscious after a Polaris off-road vehicle she was riding on flipped. Maddie was reportedly airlifted to a nearby hospital, and Jamie Lynn was reportedly not with her at the time.

Jamie Lynn spoke with Womanista this past June about the difficulties of being a young mom. “I became a mother very young,” Spears acknowledged. “Growing up and trying to do everything perfect and by taking myself so seriously, I forgot โ€” or was almost afraid โ€” to embrace the fact that I am 25 years old.”

A rep for Jamie Lynn’s sister, Britney Spears, said in a statement, “The details the media are reporting surrounding the incident regarding Jamie Lynn’s daughter Maddie are incorrect. Right now the Spears family asks that everyone respect their privacy during this time and appreciates all the prayers and support for their family.”

Maddie’s condition is currently unknown.
