Report: Bristol Palin and Fiancé Split
TODAY ^ | 03.11.09 | STAFF

Posted on 03/11/2009 3:47:01 PM PDT by fight_truth_decay

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.

Sometimes you mature faster than the other--Bristol has held her own...and never shyed away from the obstacles thrown at her by the media when Mom was in the limelight. Perhaps stronger for it.

The left wing blog_loonies will have a field day!

That baby should be given to a complete family.

Who thinks the baby will be an SCHIP participant? Two unemployed teenagers, how else would they have insurance for their child?

Interesting this outlet is not naming the “source”. The story is clearly based on the gossip tabloid “Star”, which claims the source is Levi’s sister. The omission of her name, and the Star’s abyssmal reputation (Britneys death and Miley Cyrus pregnant, were two of their many faux stories) tells volumes about the worth of this rumor.

I bet the Libs make a bigger deal of this than the economy.

HUH?... Depends on how you define "complete". I think the Palin's will raise this baby with much love.

I never thought too much of the baby’s father. He didn’t seem to be kind of person determined to be a good father and husband. Bristol can do much better than that.

On that score the Palin family will help where they can. That is what SCHIP is for isn’t? We shall see.

Gossip based on an unnamed “source”. I guess you all probably also saw coming that Palin faked her pregnancy and had an affair with a business partner of her husband... it must be true, because some gossip rags claim so... /barf

Can we wait for the Palin’s to actually corroborate the rag magazine story before we assume this is true?

What could be more complete than a family with a loving mother,grandmother, grandfather,uncles, aunts, and great-grandparents?

Oh, yeah—the sperm donor.

It's in multiple rag mags.

When they brought Levi to the GOP Convention they gave him a haircut and a new suit, but underneath all of that you could see that he was trouble.

Don’t try to bring reason into a circle of gossip tattletales.

Yes it is. I guess my point is, SCHIP for real minor children is a good thing. It is the sign of a compassionate society. SCHIP for 25 year men and women, is not a good thing. It's a sign of rampant socialism. Too many states have bled the SCHIP funds dry because they extend the benefits to people who should be able to purchase private insurance themselves.

Prayers for Bristol, the baby and the father. It’s sad this has to play out n the public spotlight.
