Britney Spears' sister Jamie Lynn has been left devastated by the theft of photographs of her breastfeeding.

The 12 personal pictures - which also include photographs of Jamie Lynn’s sister Britney, father Jamie and mother Lynn playing with her new baby Maddie - were allegedly taken from her boyfriend Casey Aldridge's camera.

Casey had taken his camera to a Louisiana store to have prints taken from the memory card, but officials now believe extra copies of the images were made with the intention of selling them to the highest bidder.

A spokesperson for the 17-year-old actress said: "We have been informed that someone was trying to solicit personal photos that belong to Jamie Lynn, and currently the proper authorities are looking into the matter."

Because one of the pictures shows Jamie Lynn’s exposed breast as she nurses her three-month-old daughter, trying to sell the photographs could be classified as child pornography as the Zoey 101 star is still legally a minor in the US.
