That Happened!

In an interview with Greta Van Susteren of Fox News, Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol put an end to the speculation.

She said her mom’s anti-abortion views did not play a role in her keeping the baby.

“It was my choice to have the baby. It doesn’t matter what my mom’s views are on it. It was my decision,” explained Bristol.

Bristol, 18, said that being a mother is amazing.

“I like being a mom. I love it,” Bristol said. “Just seeing him smile and stuff, it’s awesome. It is very challenging but it’s so rewarding. He brings so much joy. I don’t regret it at all. I just wish it would’ve happened in 10 years rather than right now.”

Bristol is now hoping that her experience can educate teens on pregnancy.

“Everyone should wait 10 years,” she continued. “I hope that people learn from my story… it’s so much easier if you’re married, have a house and career. It’s not a situation you want to strive for.”

Towards the end of the interview, Sarah Palin appeared with Tripp.

“I’m proud of her to want to take on an advocacy role and let other girls know this is not the most ideal situation, but certainly, you make the most of it,” Sarah Palin noted.

Bristol gave birth to son Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston in December of last year.
