Bristol Palin Details How Son Told Her He Wanted to Live With His Dad


Bristol Palin Expresses Heartbreak Over Her 15-Year-Old Son Tripp Moving Out of Her Home

Bristol Palin is sharing insight into a difficult time. 

A little over a week after the reality star shared her son Tripp Johnston, 15, was moving back to Alaska to live with his dad Levi Johnston full-time, she explained how the teen revealed the news to her. 

“He just texted me and was like, ‘Hey Mom, I’m not coming back,’” Bristol, 33, who lives in Texas with her and ex-husband Dakota Meyer’s daughters Sailor Grace, 8, Atlee Bay, 7, recalled on the Aug. 26 episode of Cheryl Burke’s Sex, Lies, and Spray Tans podcast. “At first I’m like, ‘I’m coming up to Alaska. We’re not doing this.’ I was so mad, so mad.”

Ultimately, the mother of three came around to her eldest child’s way of thinking, acknowledging that the move might be best for her active teen.

“It still is gut wrenching to me,” the Teen Mom OG alum, who welcomed her son when she was 18 years old, explained, “because it’s been just Tripp and I, and then I had my girls, but it’s always been Tripp and I. It’s changed the dynamic of so much.”

She continued, “It’s one of those things where he’s almost 16, he does need his dad and he needs that relationship. And he thinks this is best right now, and all I can do is just hope and pray that it is what’s best.”
