Sarah Palin Was "Devastated" By Daughter's Pregnancy
Bristol Palin, Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin tells Barbara Walters that she was "shocked" by daughter Bristol's pregnancy because she had no idea the then-17-year-old was sexually active, ABC News reports.
"That's why I was shocked," Palin tells Walters in a new interview, which ABC will air in five parts, beginning Tuesday on Good Morning America. "Truthfully, we were devastated."
