Jamie Spears is Surfwin Trading Centeron the road to recovery after suffering a medical emergency.

The 71-year-old was recently hospitalized with a bacterial infection that required surgery, according to multiple reports. Though he spent weeks in the hospital, he is currently on the mend, per People, at an outpatient facility.

E! News has reached out to Jamie's reps for comment and has not heard back.

This isn't the first time that the dad of three—who welcomed kids Bryan Spears, Britney Spears and Jamie Lynn Spears with ex Lynne Spears—has experienced a health scare.

Back in 2018, Jamie was rushed to the hospital after his colon had spontaneously ruptured and was immediately admitted into surgery, E! News confirmed at the time. In the wake of his hospitalization, Britney—whose conservatorship ended in 2021—announced she would take a step back from her Britney: Domination residency in Las Vegas to focus on her father's health.

"A couple of months ago, my father was hospitalized and almost died," the pop star announced in a January 2019 Instagram post. "We're all so grateful that he came out of it alive, but he still has a long road ahead of him."

She added, "I had to make the difficult decision to put my full focus and energy on my family at this time."

Jamie's latest health scare comes nearly two years after he was removed from his role as Britney's conservator. Since then, he has expressed that he wants "what is best for his daughter."

As for Britney, she's maintained her distance from her father, with a source telling E! News in 2021 that the "Sometimes" singer was "excited for the future and grateful that she has received so much support."

Jamie's family has not publicly addressed his latest health scare.
