So much for advocating for abstinence before marriage.
And she announced the pregnancy was going to be a "huge disappointment" until now, it's not!!
I know. Talk about hypocrisy.
Bristol made $265,000 as the "Abstinence Ambassador" after she had her first child and swore that she and God would keep her from having sex before marriage again. She made that promise to Oprah even!
And she lectured teens across the country to follow her example, discouraging them from birth control and instead pushing abstinence only.
Anyway, here's Bristol's announcement.
“I wanted you guys to be the first to know that I am pregnant.
Honestly, I’ve been trying my hardest to keep my chin up on this one.
At the end of the day there’s nothing I can’t do with God by my side, and I know I am fully capable of handling anything that is put in front of me with dignity and grace.
Life moves on no matter what. So no matter how you feel, you get up, get dressed, show up, and never give up.”
I know this has been, and will be, a huge disappointment to my family, to my close friends, and to many of you.
But please respect Tripp’s and my privacy during this time. I do not want any lectures and I do not want any sympathy.”
It's kind of sad that a 24-year-old woman of means feels ^ that way, or at least professes to feel that way. It's a resounding endorsement for birth control, ironically. Pay attention kids.
(P.s. That statement is gonna be real nice for the kid to read one day.)
