BRISTOL PALIN SPEAKS OUT - ABC


ABC's Sara Just reports: Bristol Palin, the 18-year-old daughter of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, says in an interview with Fox News to air tonight that just one year ago she could not have imagined her life today.

The announcement of Bristol Palin's pregnancy made headlines last summer just days after Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., selected her mother as his running mate for the Republican presidential ticket. Bristol Palin gave birth to a son, Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston, on Dec. 28, 2008.

Fox's Greta Van Susteren: Is this what you expected?

Palin: I don’t know if it's what I expected, but it's, it's just a lot different.

Van Susteren: You had no hint of the demands of being a new mother?

Palin: Well, it's not just the baby that's hard, it's just that I'm not living for myself anymore. It's like for another person. So that's different.

Van Susteren: If you and I were talking a year ago and I said, what do you think is going to happen in your life, what do you think you would have told me?

Palin: I honestly have no idea because I never would have thought I would have become a mom. And I never would have thought my mom was going to be chosen for vice president."

A new unauthorized biography of Sarah Palin by People magazine editor Lorenzo Benet is being published Tuesday.
