[La Times Blogs]- Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol Palin and Bristol’s fiance, Levi Johnston, have broken up a little over two months after the birth of their out-of-wedlock son, Tripp.

People.com reported Wednesday that the split between Bristol, 18, and Levi, 19, happened a few weeks ago.

Johnston actually confirmed to the Associated Press that he and Bristol mutually decided to end their relationship “a while ago.” No details, sorry.

According to Fox News, Palin’s statement to the Associated Press says she is “devastated.”

In a recent interview with Greta Van Susteren, Bristol said she and her fiance would marry after they both finished high school.

“Eventually, we’d like to get married. We’re focusing on, like, getting through school and just getting an education and stuff, getting a career going,” she said.

Sarah talks about how proud she is of Bristol in a surprise visit to Van Susteren’s studio.

In her usual folksy, aw-shucks manner, Sarah says, “I’m proud of her to want to take on an advocacy role and um, just let other girls know that this is not the most ideal situation but certainly, make the most of it.”

Despite the break-up, Levi still sees his son. Levi’s dad, Keith Johnston, told People recently that his son is a devoted and “proud father.”

So lets get this straight. Abstinence doesn’t work, as Bristol herself admitted.

And now it turns out that teenage marriages based on unplanned pregnancies may not be such good idea either.

Are we really surprised?
