The 18-year-old daughter of former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has given birth in Alaska to a son.

People magazine reports that Bristol Palin gave birth to Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston on Sunday. He weighed 7 pounds, 4 ounces.

Relative Colleen Jones tells the magazine the baby is fine and Bristol is "doing well." Jones is the sister of Bristol's grandmother.

The father is Levi Johnston, a former hockey player at Alaska's Wasilla High School. He has said he and Bristol plan to marry.

Palin created a stir in September by announcing the pregnancy as she prepared to accept her nomination at the Republican National Convention.

The governor's office called the birth a private family matter.

Will they still be preaching abstinence, virginity, and waiting till marriage? I heard on 'The View' Sarah was pushing the daughter to get married before the due date. Daughter refused and said maybe this summer. I doubt they'll ever get married. His Myspace page said he didn't want children. Is he even sure the child is his? They both were running around with others and were never monogamous according to so many reports. He's not even in school now finishing his senior year and neither is she. They're all hypocritical trash.

Great. Just when I though Sarah's flight to Washington DC would be the last useless Tripp from the Palin clan.
