Jamie Lynn Spears Suffers Heartbreaking Loss

Jamie Lynn Spears continued her story about Father Mark Beard in her Instagram post. The "Zoey 101" star said that when Beard started praying over Maddie, her daughter showed signs of life for the first time since the ATV accident. "Maddie starts flailing around, & I immediately start screaming for a nurse, a doctor, and he went to witness that she was not gone. She was still there," Spears said. She went on to say that Beard was "surprised by how quickly and strongly the spirit worked." As the actor noted, the ever-humble Beard downplayed his role in the apparent miracle.

In February 2020, Spears posted a candid Instagram caption alongside a photo of Maddie in the hospital. She is still so thankful that her daughter pulled through — and made a full recovery. Spears isn't the only person who mentioned Beard's "gift," either. Many parishioners at Saint Helena also expressed similar sentiments on the church's Facebook page.
