The pair, parents to 2-month-old son Tripp, broke up 'a few weeks ago'
Bristol Palin and her fiancé Levi Johnston have broken up, two sources tell PEOPLE.
The split happened "a few weeks ago," according to a source close to the couple, but it's unclear what precipitated it. "It was a mutual thing," adds the source.
"It kind of just happened," says the source, referring to the split. "I thought they would stick it out. But I think they can work together to raise Tripp."
Despite the breakup, Levi still sees the couple's son. Levi's dad, Keith Johnston, told PEOPLE recently that his son is a devoted and "proud father."
Bristol, meanwhile, is attending Wasilla High, taking a class to supplement course work she is completing at home. She also is considering enrolling in college next fall and studying nursing.

However if she needs a few Hail Marys, give her a call and get her instructions.
The senior priest was not, I imagine, asked his opinion on in vitro fertilisation, only whether or not he would pray and bless a sick child.
Don’t drag him into this, unless he was indeed telling you that things you know the Church teaches are wrong are o.k. for you merely because you’re not Catholic.
LOL!
1000th post! You win absolution!
Once again. The Catholic Church holds that forgiveness without repentance does not remove sin.
But thanks for patronising my religion as a substitute for coming to grips with the issue.
What Christian parent ISN’T obliged to raise fine, Christian children who contribute to society.
You say you think she’s done something wrong, but it seems that you believe none of her actions in fact require redress.
So in what way do you really think she did anything wrong?
He did say it was a blessing no matter how we received him during a conversation about how hard we had tried to get to that point. So i guess he did have no issues with.
Call the Pope and turn him in I guess. I like Benedict and would accept his “judgment”, since I know he understands his role in God's family..
* Another note, it is not that I have any issue with the dogma my catholic friends, though I do disagree in in-vitro and feel as more is known that may change since it is the creation and not the destruction of life we all abhor. Also I know most of you apply you believes with a healthy dose of tempered mercy and grace.
YEEESSS....
LOL!
I part ionize nothing, but I do mention a Catholic form of repentance as a suggestion to your ludicrous demands on all of man kind.
I really know of no Catholics who are as hardened as you seem to be.
It is a beautiful and loving religion full of rich family traditions.over and grace. It seems you would have gotten some of that over the years.
No; you dragged him into this by outrageously trying to imply that a priest would endorse in vitro.
He was confronted with a sick child and distressed parents, and did what he could to aid you, but don’t FOR A MINUTE believe or try to suggest that act of mercy amounts to Church sanction for the process by which you conceived the suffering child.
You certainly did not get him to endorse in vitro by letting him help you in a time of need.
It’s a beautiful and loving religion whose teachings you reject or pass over with studied indifference.
Again, thanks for patronising.
That’s ‘patroniZing’ in America.
In the barbarous parts of it perhaps.
Nope, just the educated parts.
The parochial parts.
I've seen none of that beauty and love in any of your posts. All I've seen in your posts is condemnation and bitterness. Maybe you should seek some spiritual guidance to deal with all your negativity and your propensity to be so judgmental.
Tell me again whose soul I have judged?
I can see a church by daylight, though. Deliberately choosing single parenthood in the presence of alternatives IS socially destructive—so I DO condemn that.
If we want to talk about the beauty of marital chastity, though, that would be just great.
But this is no new obligation. She would have been obliged as a Christian to do what you prescribe merely for undertaking to be a mother.
Maybe you believe that the chief social ill facing our society is excessive judgmentalism...
Maybe you also need to walk down to your local jail and ask the prisoners there how many of them are filling out Father’s Day cards this year.
I never said he endorsed anything.
Your anger and coldness is nothing I have experienced from any of my Catholic friends, indeed it is almost alien to my knowledge of ANY Christian faith.
I again have to say that something is definitely amiss. I pray it is an act to illicit some response for some purpose that would be advantageous to what ever group you are here making an effort for, for if it is not, if it is real, I fear for you.
