In a 2016 TLC special on Jamie Lynn, the low-key businessman insisted he knew nothing about his wife’s showbiz life when he met her.

When did Jamie Watson meet Jamie Lynn Spears?
Jamie met Jamie Lynn back in 2010 through mutual friends following her divorce from Casey Aldrige (who she welcomed eldest daughter Maddie with at 16.)
In fact, Jamie Lynn previously shared how it was Jamie’s bond with her daughter Maddie that initially attracted her to him. In 2018, the star shared, ‘Just seeing the way he was with Maddie and the way he just fit right in – it wasn’t like I ever had to tell him anything. Their relationship is so sweet.’
‘He’s the kind of dad that every little girl deserves to have. When I saw that, I was like, “Oh my gosh, this is the man I love.” You fall in love with the people who fall in love with the people you love.’
The couple got engaged in 2013, and married the following year in a lavish New Orleans wedding. Celebrating her wedding anniversary back in 2014, Jamie Lynn wrote, ‘I was an 18-year-old single mom when this guy came into my life; he made me laugh more than I ever had before, and his never changing-consistency gave me a stability for the first time in my life.'
‘Maybe it was just because he was 10 years older and had already established a successful life for himself both personally and professionally, but nonetheless, I felt a sense of peace with him. I think that’s what being in love us supposed to feel like – just feeling at peace.’

When Jamie Lynn came under fire for allegedly being complicit in her sister’s conservatorship, Jamie defended his wife and her family.
He said, ‘I can assure you [Britney’s] family loves her and wants the best for her. I wouldn’t be around people who weren’t. Who wouldn’t want to be in support of Britney?’
