Jamie Lynn Spears gifted her older daughter an ATV for Christmas.

Nearly nine years after her now 17-year-old daughter Maddie's near-fatal ATV accident, the actress and mom of two, 34, has gifted her teenage daughter another ATV. On Thursday, Dec. 25, Spears shared a carousel of photos on her Instagram as she rounded up her Christmas spent with daughters Maddie and Ivey, 7, as well as her sister Britney Spears' son Sean Preston, 19.

In the carousel, Jamie Lynn included a snap of her older daughter Maddie's Christmas present: a red ATV with a big bow on top. Underneath the bow, Maddie's name was written in gold glittery letters. The mom of two also included a picture of Maddie and Ivey sitting on the ATV and smiling together.

"Merry CHRISTMAS ✝️🤶🏻🎀🎄🎁," Jamie Lynn wrote in her caption.

In 2017, Maddie got into a traumatic ATV accident that left her in a coma. While on the U.K. reality TV show I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out Of Here in 2017, Jamie Lynn spoke about the scary incident.

Recalling what happened to her castmates, Jamie Lynn said, "I almost lost my oldest daughter ... She drowned and we couldn’t save her."

"We tried really hard. She was trapped under a little side-by-side that we ride around our pond," she recalled, explaining that the teen was "8 or 9" at the time.

"My father-in-law, my mother-in-law, me and my husband, we run to jump in to save her and you kind of — in that moment you think, 'This is not real. She’s going to pop up, this isn’t real," she continued.

"I could feel her arm, and I’m jerking it, I couldn’t get her up because it’s a pretty heavy machine. In that moment you think, you know logically she’s been underwater too long."

Jamie Lynn recalled sitting there distraught and covered in vomit as she heard her mother-in-law call her own mom, and say, "'Lynne, we've lost Maddie.'"

Moments later, a firefighter let Jamie Lynn know that Maddie did have a pulse. "They airlifted her. She’s hooked up on life support, breathing machines and all that… they come in, [bring] a priest to read her her last rites, and when they did, her body physically sat up," the mom of two — who shares Maddie with ex Casey Aldridge and daughter Ivey, with husband Jamie Watson — said.

In February 2024, Jamie Lynn shared a carousel of photos on her Instagram as she honored the seventh anniversary of her daughter Maddie's accident. Posting pictures of Maddie in the hospital room, as well as a few photos of Jamie Lynn in bed with her daughter, the star took a minute to reflect on the experience.

"Today is our #MIRACLEANNIVERSARY 🕊️ Every year that passes and I watch my daughter grow up, the more I realize how very blessed we are, and never want to take that for granted," Jamie Lynn wrote.

"Again, thank you to all the healthcare professionals who made the life saving decisions, and thank you to each and every person who prayed for our baby girl. Thinking of Father Mark today, although he is in heaven now, he was always like an angel on earth for us, especially on this day 7 years ago🤍🤍."

Then this past August, Maddie spoke about her accident publicly for the first time in a video posted on her YouTube channel.

“I did have an accident though," Maddie said at one point during the video. "I was in a coma, and I came back to life, and I’m very blessed. So yeah, I've just been very accident-prone. I swear my parents are amazing and they did not do anything to me."
