Welp, it looks like there has been another loss for the Palin family. According to Mercede Johnston, sister of babydaddy Levi Johnston, Bristol Palin and Levi are no longer together since Bristol has reportedly cut him out of their baby boy Tripp‘s life. Apparently, they’re dunzo, y’all!
The teen love affair that rocked last year’s presidential race is over. Sarah Palin’s daughter, Bristol, has ditched her baby daddy, Levi Johnston! Now’s Levi’s sister, Mercede is telling all exclusively to Star and the picture she paints of life in Wasilla, Alaska is not a pretty one. Bristol, 18, has virtually cut Levi out of the life of their two-month-old son Tripp. “Levi tries to visit Tripp every single day, but Bristol makes it nearly impossible. She tells him he can’t take the baby to our house because she doesn’t want him around ‘white trash’!” Bristol won’t even allow him to watch the baby for a few hours — unless he’s babysitting! The worst part, Mercede continues, is that the former vice presidential candidate supports Bristol’s treatment of Levi, 19. “I used to love Sarah,” Mercede says sadly. “But I’ve lost lots of respect for her.”
Say it ain’t so!! I guess this break-up was to be expected. After the McCain/Palin ticket (blessedly) lost the presidential election, I figured it was only a matter of time before Levi‘s usefulness started and wane and the poor kid could be sent off to pasture. Except for his being cut out of his son’s young life (allegedly), I’d think this news would be good for Levi:
According to Star magazine, the break-up got really dramatic … there was even a “hate-filled text message” from Bristol to Levi (isn’t there always a text message involved these days?) and there is a plan in place by the Johnston family to win access to baby Tripp! Oh my! Honestly, I’m not all that invested in the relationship between Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston but their unplanned teen pregnancy was such a thing last year … I think this story gives a nice sense of closure. I had almost forgot about these strange people who live in that far away place called Alaska.

Oh I see one of Palin’s little army of idiots has shown up.
People. Bristol Palin must be stoned to death as God has commanded in the Bible. I hope Sarah Palin is a true Christian and will follow through with this.
I always thought that if Palin wasn’t elected that Levi would get his own reality show. It’d be more interesting than half the Kardashians and Flavor of Love combined!
I forgot about the stoning that needs to be done. Who is supposed to do the stoning?
I’ll provide the stones.

“you have to admit, the “white trash” insult is a bit ironic.”
Actually jadedsweetie, I believe the word that you are looking for is hypocritical.
OK – so Marc Sweetie – We are all a bit white trash (Republicans – more so, however). But at least a few of us know when we are acting white trash. The Palins know no different.
Very insensitive Trent…there’s a baby involved and you have to imply that Levi was only around for political reasons? I know you may find it hard to believe, but Republicans have values too and want there to be two loving parents for a child. You tell that baby there is a “nice sense of closure” when he asks why he can’t see his father. Tasteless…I just can’t read your sight anymore.
Republicans have values?
I guess I can’t say I’m suprised about the news. I always felt during the election that the Palin/McCain camp threw Levi in a suit and had him stand there next to his pregnant girlfriend and look happy and responsible and that everything was alright. They just looked so uncomfortable being in that spotlight that something like this was bound to happen sometime. If the report is accurate (how accurate is Star Magazine really?) then I do feel bad for the kid, who seems like he wants to see and spend time taking care of his son. I find the whole white trash thing actually kind of funny since Bristol obviously had no problem with dating and sleeping with him before! Oh those Alaskans… it’s a strange world up there! Best of luck to everyone!!
At least he got that nice suit out of the deal! LOL
Oh dear. Amanda can’t read Trent’s “sight” anymore.
um, here’s the problem people and this is why Trent or anyone else gets to talk about this:
(1) Sarah Palin ran to be VP of the US (and has made hints about running for the presidency in 2012) as a Republican;
(2) Sarah Palin and the Republican Party only believe in ABSTINENCE ONLY education for teenagers (although there may be some dissenters, reasonable Republicans on these topics are few and far between and being hounded out of their party);
(3) Sarah Palin’s child became pregnant as a teenager (presumably after being raised to believe in abstinence only);
(4) ABSTINENCE ONLY EDUCATION DOESN’T WORK.
(5) Sarah Palin is trying to impose a point of view on the nation about a policy that doesn’t work, that has really huge consequences for the teenagers who do become pregnant. Even if they are in a supportive family, like Bristol is, they may still have to raise the kid alone.
This is screwed up because there are millions of teenagers who don’t have such lucky situations. Therefore, we get to talk about this because it is a political issue that could very easily affect us all. That’s not trashing anyone. That’s about thinking about the world we live in and not just standing around mouth-breathing.
I gotta say I am not at all suprised, ok well maybe that it took so long to happen!! I. Don’t think its fair to the daddy the way her family are treating him that shit is wrong Palin is such a bi*ch!!
I have to agree with Amanda. I enjoy visiting this site, but there is a meanness to this post. Regardless of the politics which brought this situation to light, yet another baby from yet another broken home shouldn’t be used as a veil through which to comment on a politician. I’m not sure I’ll be able to view PITNB in the same vane any longer. You’re usually pretty empathetic and have been able to rise above the BS before; it’s a shame that politics have held you back in this instance. If any of this is true, I would pose the question: Did Levi ever get another job after quitting the oil fields? If not, it becomes easier to see where Bristol may or may not be coming from.
When the Miley Cyrus thing came up, people here claimed they had never made fun of anyone else in a mean way or been offensive. mocking people in alaska and calling others white trash is mean and offensive. you might not think it is because you did it, but it displays the hypocrisy that so many peopel here have. I don’t like the palins either but you can’t say one thing and then do another.
sugaredpeas — very good explanation! Palin’s insistence on abstinence-only education is a little hard to swallow when she has a pregnant teenage daughter. People need to discuss the realities and difficulties of teenage parenthood, not just sweep it under the rug and continue thinking kids will never have sex if you tell them not to.
And no one is saying Bristol isn’t justified in dumping him (if she did). Both of them should be able to decide for themselves if their relationship works, NOT feel like they need to stay together just to present a nice family image for mom’s campaign.
Here’s the deal, I think Trent’s comments are hilarious. However, I also think that the situation makes its own punchline. As an aside, I must also say that as a resident of Alabama, I’m just thankful that those red-neck dumbasses aren’t from here.
@ Chella – try to sound a little more unintelligent, really! I think I’ll wait for something a little more credible than the Star to run this story before I’m buying into any of it. What’s funny is that people are surprised by ANYTHING politicians do anymore. Republican, Democrat, whatever, there are some serious ethical dilemmas on both sides.
Some of you people really need to calm down. Did any REALLY think this s**t would last? I think the whole “engagement” thing was a sham (and you know it). They were getting married for the baby (and the presidency). It didnt work out, and now they’re not together anymore. GOOD. A child caught between two parents who hate each is not a good situation. Next.
