Odus Jackson, the uncle of Jamie Lynn Spears‘ baby daddy, Casey Aldridge, is speaking out about the teen star’s break-up.

Odus told HollywoodLife,

It’s a tough situation, what they are going through, for sure.  But it always has been.  They’re so young.  [Our family] is always concerned about what’s happening with them.

Odus believes the problems started a while back, saying,

The last time I saw them together was just before Thanksgiving.  They were at his parents’ house with [their daughter, 19-month-old baby Maddie].  They weren’t interacting all that much but at least they were together.

The last time I saw [Maddie] was around Christmas.  She stayed with [Casey's] mom and dad.  They love her, so they took her for the holiday while Casey and Jamie Lynn were off separately.  They often take her for the weekend or a few days.

Jamie Lynn has already moved on with 28-year-old James Watson and Casey is keeping himself busy with construction projects in Mississippi.

Did you think Jamie Lynn and Casey were going to last?
