Bristol Palin Admits New Boyfriend, Wants to Change Son’s Last Name (Audio)

(HMG Celebrity News) – Bristol Palin reluctantly admitted she has a new boyfriend, reportedly a 20-year-old Alaskan pipeline worker. Palin, who was a runner-up on last season’s Dancing With the Stars, called into KWHL’s The Bob & Mark Show (audio below) and after she was coy about her love life, the hosts suggested she say:

“Yeah, you know what, I’m seeing a guy and he’s really great and Tripp loves him and we’re having a really good time and we’re really good friends.

Bristol said in response: Yeah, we can go with that.”  Adding: “I love the town that I live in. I love my house. Tripp’s happy; he’s healthy.”

Palin said she “wrote a check” of reportedly $172,000 to purchase a five-bedroom house in Maricopa, Arizona—and added that the new house “made Dancing With the Stars worth it.” Palin said her 2-year-old son, Tripp, is happy right now, and she really wants her ex-boyfriend Levi Johnston to sign over his parental rights to their son, and allow her to change Tripp’s last name from Johnston to Palin, as well.

She said, “Yeah, I’ve asked Levi to do it many different times, just get it out of the way, just sign over his parental rights, but I don’t know if he will or if wants to right now.” Palin said Levi has seen Tripp “at the most, three times” since she was on Dancing With the Stars.
