Bristol Palin: “I’m Not Going To Have Sex Until I’m Married”
| Jan 15, 2010 by JENNY SCHAFER |
In addition to proclaiming she's glad she "chose life," Bristol Palin also talks to In Touch about having Tripp at such a young age. Instead of going off to university, Bristol is working full-time at a doctor’s office in Anchorage and taking classes at a small college in Wasilla.
Tripp is the love of my life — I couldn’t ask for a better baby,” the teen mom says. “But the reality is I’m 19 years old and I have a one-year-old. I wish I could be in my 30s with a baby, and not be in my 20s. Just having him so young — I have to work, and I have to provide for him, because I’m a single mom. Time for yourself — there’s no such thing. You don’t have time for friends when you have a baby. Things like that are just put on the back burner. I’m not going to have sex until I’m married. I can guarantee it.”
Bristol now serves as a teen ambassador for Candie’s and wants to do speaking engagements to promote safe sex and abstinence.
Her mother Sarah Palin admits that she feels some disappointment for her daughter. “Everything stopped. Education slowed down. Before, the world was her oyster. She has limited options now.”
Sarah & Bristol Palin: “We're Glad We Chose Life”
| Jan 13, 2010 by JENNY SCHAFER |
Bristol Palin was faced with an unplanned pregnancy at the young age of 18. After giving birth to her son Tripp in December 2008 — and broke up with her boyfriend, Levi Johnston — the reality of single motherhood quickly set in.
I remember sitting on a black recliner, just bawling my eyes out,” Bristol tells In Touch. “I was just rocking Tripp to sleep because he had been screaming for so long. I was just like, ‘What am I going to do? This is as bad as it gets.'”
Though raising an infant has been challenging, Bristol has the unconditional love and support of her family, including her mother Sarah Palin. Just a year earlier at the age of 44, Sarah carried her son Trig to term, even though she was told during a sonogram that he would be born with Down syndrome.
The mother-daughter duo are sharing their unique experiences of raising baby boys together under the same roof. “The last few years have been unreal and surreal,” Sarah says.

Sarah Palin's Teen Daugther Pregnant
| Sep 2, 2008 by JENNY SCHAFER |
Republican vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, confirmed in a statement Monday that her 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, is five months pregnant,
"Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support."
Sarah went on to say that Bristol plans to marry the father of the child,
"Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family."
The 44-year-old vice presidential candidate released the statement to combat a rumor that Bristol may have been the mother of Palin's youngest son, 4-month-old Trig, who has Down syndrome.
Sarah and her husband Todd Palin, have five children: sons Track (19) and Trig (4 months) and daughters Bristol (17), Willow (14), and Piper (7). Their first son, Track, was born eight months after their wedding.
