Oooh, things are heating up in the National Enquirer‘s world! They had claimed that Jamie Lynn Spears was pregnant last week, but TMZ refuted it with an “anonymous public denial.”

The Enquirer dug up another interesting tidbit to add to the drama, claiming that “a close family member has revealed exclusively that the Spears family is in an uproar and Jamie Lynn is being pressured to abort the baby.”

People are whispering that Jamie Lynn is trying to buy herself some time while she tries to figure out what to do. The Enquirer claims that the Spears fam is in an uproar, and they won’t be talking until they sell an official confirmation of the pregnancy.

I half-believe it right now.
