Bristol Palin Getting Married ... To Levi Johnston!

By Zach Dionne Posted Jul 14th 2010 08:01AM

Perhaps the most on-again, off-again politically tinged relationship we've all had the pleasure of following has taken a new turn: Bristol Palin, 19, and Levi Johnston, 20, are engaged again, Us Weekly exclusively reveals.

"We got engaged two weeks ago," Bristol tells the magazine. "It felt right, even though we don't have the approval of our parents."

That's right -- Sarah Palin doesn't approve. But the couple says they reconnected three months ago, while hashing out the custody details for their 18-month-old son, Tripp. Bristol and Levi were engaged once before, but called it off just weeks before she gave birth.

"I really thought we were over," Levi tells Us Weekly. "So when I went, I had no hope. I think we both just started talking -- and then we took Tripp for a walk."

Bristol finishes the tale: "When he left that night, we didn't hug or kiss, but I was thinking how different it was. He texted me: 'I miss you. I love you. I want to be with you again' ... I was in shock."

The lovers have often seemed permanently star-crossed -- even long into their separation, they habitually referenced each other on talk shows and in magazine profiles.

And though they've run circles around each other -- and been bound by a son together -- Palin and Johnston have faced adversity, both from outside and from each other. Bristol sought some of Levi's paycheck for his Playgirl photo spread; Levi told GQ Bristol's father Todd offered to buy her a new car if she dumped Levi.

Bristol said in January one of her lowest moments came after the big split from Levi: "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,'" she told In Touch.

Now things are looking solid for the couple, though Bristol says it's "intimidating and scary" waiting for her mother's reaction. "Hopefully she will jump on board."

I love the palin's but if Bristol marries this loser,she will lose many of the same people that supported her. This idiot loser wants another 15 minutes of attention. Kick the loser to the curb and move on sweetie. But you know kids will be kids and you know how we try to teach them well,,,,,,they will do what they want and pay for it later.

leave your redneck bigotry on your front porch.....

So sad that you stoop to demeaning two innocent young girls. Your lack of character says more about you than it does about the Obama daughters.

uh, Bristol..if you honestly think rocking your screaming baby to sleep alone is 'as bad as it gets' you need a reality check !

By Joann

Sometimes we say bad things about each other when there is so much hurt. I think they should give it a try! They may have both grown up a little.

A few years ago I reunited with my high school sweetheart after a 30 year separation ... I'll be rooting for these kids to make it. Bristol is trying to do right by her son. If the press and thier parents stay out of it, AND with GOD's blessing, they might just have a chance.

By Nancy

Maybe she's pregnant again. Regardless, why would ANYONE want Sarah Palin as their MOTHER-IN-LAW?

By prayer232day

Because she is a moral and intelligent person and Christian. The adulterers, fornicators, sodomists, abortion killers hate her,,,the bible says the wicked hate the just. Anyone who likes Obama is eitehr wicked or ignorant because he is evil.

The poor child has been burdened with defective genes from both sides of his family.

She's nuts, it won't last. She can forgive but walk away from it now. I broke up with the guy I was going with at 17, and we went back together six months or so later because I was pressured into it. Eventually we married and had a child. Marrying him was a Big Mistake. He cheated on me when we were going together, and he cheated on me after we were married. This will never last, they will be going through an even more bitter divorce in a few years.

I won't dignify a response to this article. It is trash.

You know the old saying,"Love hides all faults."

It's a publicity stunt. They realized that they were falling out of the public eye, so they came up with this gimmick, to keep their names in print.

By Steff

Geez, she looks at least 40 years old!

I can't understand the hatred of Sara Palin. She is a beautiful, moral, caring women of great character. She didn't abort her down syndrom baby, didnt drag her daughter to an abortion clinic. She can draw many many thousands of people and she has great courage to take all the verbal abuse she recieved from the media and just shulf it off. Wonderful women, a model for all.

Your a republican aren't you?

By B. Taylor

No doubt she's a good person, but after having bailed on those who elected her to lead the state of Alaska, after the rants of the "Death Panels" (visions of mercenaries searching hospital corridors to exterminate the helpless elderly patients), after her leading the chorus of mindless, untrue, sophomoric jabs at Obama, it's clear this lady does not belong anywhere near the Exucutive Office.
