Now, it seems they just date, get pregnant, then get engaged — at least if they are Jamie Lynn Spears, Britney’s little sis, who turns the grand old age of 17 next week on April 4.

Word comes from Us Weekly magazine on Wednesday that Jamie Lynn, who stars as a high school student on the Nickelodeon TV network’s popular “Zoey 101,” is now engaged to her ‘long-time” boyfriend Casey Aldridge, the father of her as yet unborn baby.   

Jamie Lynn shocked her fans and celebrity watchers back in December when she revealed she was pregnant.

This is not the first report that Aldridge popped the marriage question, but it does source the  news to a family member, Spears’ cousin Tina Robinson.

“They probably weren’t expecting (the proposal) to be, like, right now, but with her being pregnant, that really pushed it up,” Robinson told Us Weekly.

Yes Tina, probably did.
