(CBS) Just three weeks after announcing their surprise second engagement, Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston have reportedly split up.
The question is -- why?
It looked as if Bristol and Levi had settled down and were ready to raise their year-old son, Tripp, together, as a married couple. Now, Bristol says that's all changed and she's called off their engagement.
CBS News National Correspondent Jeff Glor said on "The Early Show" it was a picture that was hard to believe, Levi and Bristol, back together after a year-and-a-half-long public feud. The pair, with their infant son, announced their engagement just three weeks ago in US Weekly.
Bristol told reporters, "He got down on one knee and asked me to marry him."
But not long after, Bristol told People magazine there was trouble.
Betsy Gleick, Peopl's executive editor, said to CBS News, "What Bristol told People is that, on the very day that the world learned they were going to get married, Levi came home and said to her that he may have gotten another woman pregnant."

Hopefully this is the last we’ll ever hear of this slimebag, but I have a feeling it won’t be.
On another thread, I said that Bristol is now free. He has cheated on her, so any marriage bond, whether sanctioned by the state or not, is broken. I hope Bristol makes better choices going forward.
what does fwiw mean?
Makes you wonder if it’s anyone Bristol knows, being that Wasilla is such a small town where everyone knows everyone?
Better that Bristol found out now, before she married him, than after. She needs to get over him for good.
For what it’s worth...
I'm sure after few dollars are dangled in his face, he'll be off doing male porn to suport himself and pay his child-support.
Thank. I wasn’t sure of the meaning either!
I think he did the other girl after Bristol dumped him the first time.
That’s the impression I get too. If you’re broken up then it’s not cheating, although getting her pregnant shows that this boy hasn’t learned a thing.
This is common behavior for late teen-early 20 something couple in America :
Meet-greet-hook up- split up - get back together—split up...
My view, for what it’s worth, is that marriage goes beyond a license. Having a child with a woman can be enough for marriage in my view regardless of the state license or not. If Bristol felt committed to the relationship or felt married to him — his cheating ends that.
Which she didn't when she dumped him the first time.
Good to see CBS focused like a laser on the really important issues.
I’m getting sick of this soap opera between two promiscuous teens.
They had completely split, per the news of course. His perogative to move on but very stupid to make yet another baby out of wedlock.
Do you just come here to be a jerk? Waste of time of a post and the question was already answered.
