Levi Johnston appears not to have learned any lessons about birth control after impregnating Bristol Palin at age 18.
Johnston’s girlfriend of a year and a half, 20-year-old preschool teacher Sunny Oglesby, is pregnant, his rep has confirmed.
Sources tell TMZ that Oglesby is less than three months along and thus has not widely announced the news. Johnston is reported to be “so excited” about becoming a father for the second time.
Johnston’s rep confirmed the report to The Post this afternoon.
Johnston was thrust into the national spotlight in September of 2008, holding then-girlfriend Bristol Palin’s hand as her mother Sarah Palin accepted the vice presidential nomination at the Republican National Convention. As it was announced that Bristol Palin was pregnant, Johnston told the Associated Press that he was excited to have a son and marry his girlfriend, denying reports that he was being pressured into a wedding.
LEVI AND BRISTOL ARE ENGAGED – TAKE TWO
Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston was born in December 2008. Palin and Johnston, however, split just three months later. Johnston soon became embroiled a media war against the Palins, criticizing the family in multiple interviews as well as posing for a spread in Playgirl magazine.
Johnston and Palin reunited in July of 2010, announcing in an “US Weekly” cover story that their engagement was back on . Several weeks later, however, they split again.
While promoting his memoir, “Deer in Headlights: My Life in Sarah Palin’s Crosshairs,” last September, Johnston alleged that Bristol Palin’s pregnancy had not been an accident. “Bristol wanted to have a baby,” he told E! News. “It all happened on purpose.”
Johnston began dating Oglesby, a blonde who resides in Wasilla, Alaska, in October of 2010 after the two were introduced by a mutual friend. Oglesby announced their relationship on Facebook two months later, posting a photo of herself and Johnston kissing underneath a pair of mounted moose antlers.
OK! magazine reports that on Oglesby’s now-deleted Facebook profile she wrote, “I like anything that is fun… pretty much anything out door is awesome to me but I also enjoy watching movies and cuddling inside … I’ve made a lot of mistakes and learned from them.. Had a lot of loser ex boyfriends and friends that just made me stronger and better..Stay out of drama as much as I possibly can but it finds me haha.”
