Bristol Palin's Ex Speaks Out About Divorce

Dakota Meyer, the father of some of new Teen Mom Bristol Palin's children, revealed on Instagram some of the turmoil that led to his divorce from Palin. Although he didn't give details, he hinted that the split wasn't exactly amicable. Read on for more.

Via Us Weekly.

When Dakota Meyer filed for divorce from Bristol Palin in February, he cited “discord or conflict of personalities.” But the 30-year-old put it more plainly in his Instagram Story on Monday, August 6: “She wasn’t happy with me, so it’s for the best.”

The reveal came when Meyer answered a fan question about why he and his 27-year-old ex-wife broke up after a year and a half of marriage. When another Instagram follower asked him for advice about navigating a porce, he said, “You can try everything and give the person all you have and if they don’t choose to see good in you it’s out of your control. Know when enough is enough.”

It’s so much easier to enjoy our summer with my littles when I’m not feeling exhausted after chasing them all day!! 🙈 I’ve been avoiding the diet sodas, and sugary energy drinks because I know how bad they are for me - instead I have been drinking @teamiblends skinny tea because it is the healthiest ‘energy drink’ for you!! Everyone is definitely much happier when I drink this 🤣 I cannot recommend @teamiblends enough! And you can use my code - BRIS25 - for 25% off yours!! #thankyouteami #teamipartner

With the divorce behind him, however, the former Marine said he is “probably the happiest man on the face of the planet.” He also gave props to his children with Palin, 2-year-old Sailor and 15-month-old Atlee.

“Both of my girls have got me through so much but Sailor is what turned me into a man and made me not just want to be better but to make the commitment I’d do whatever it took to be the best dad ever,” he wrote on a photo of Sailor asleep on his shoulder.

Meyer’s Instagram Story comes nearly a week after Palin hosted her own Instagram Q&A, confirming she was “freshly divorced” and speculating she’ll be “single forever.”

Meanwhile, Palin has joined the cast of Teen Mom OG. As Us Weekly exclusively reported, she’ll be earning $250,000 for her first season on the show, with $50,000 options for second and third seasons.
