Jamie Lynn Spears’ daughter Maddie had her last rites read after her near-fatal ATV accident in February 2017.

The “Sweet Magnolias” star, 35, told People on Wednesday that the then-8-year-old, who was in a coma, “physically sit[ting] up in all her restraints and tubes” when the priest arrived at her hospital room.

“I [was] screaming for the doctors, like ‘Come in here now!'” the actress recalled. “Even the priest was like, ‘I’ve never seen anything like what’s happening.'”
