Todd Palin's Alleged Mistress Says Sarah Palin Faked Pregnancy

Sarah Palin was treated by a massage therapist a few years back who not only claims to have had an affair with her husband Todd, but is also saying that Palin faked her most recent pregnancy with son Trig.

According to a report from RadarOnline, Shailey Tripp is the name of the massage therapist who claims to have had a sexual relationship with Todd Palin, that allegedly lasted from early 2007 to late 2009. Todd Palin has vehemently denied those claims.

Now Shailey Tripp claims she has a lot to say about the Palins--Sarah Palin specifically. In fact, she says there is no way Palin was pregnant when she was supposed to be carrying baby Trig.

On what does Tripp base her claim? She says she provided several spa services to Sarah, and specifically asked her if she was pregnant at the time. She said Palin denied being pregnant and did not look the least bit pregnant. She also said Palin had "procedures" performed at the spa that a pregnant woman wouldn't have had, though she declined to say exactly what those procedures were.

Some rumors have circulated in the past that Trig Palin was actually the son of one of the Palin's daughters, and that Palin and husband Todd chose to cover up the pregnancy and raise Trig as their own son. If that were the case then, why did they so openly broadcast the fact that daughter Bristol Palin was 17 and pregnant during Sarah's moment in the spotlight?

Something smells foul in this whole scenario. Is Shailey Tripp a jilted lover? Could Todd Palin have had an affair with the woman and now she's out for Palin money? Or is the massage therapist simply an attention seeker who craves some acknowledgment from the media?

Could Sarah Palin have really faked a pregnancy? Tripp claims to have proof that the date on which she asked Palin if she was pregnant coincided with what would have been the later stages of her pregnancy with Trig. Still nothing has been divulged about the "proof" and exactly what that proof may have been. (Are you seeing a bit of a pattern here?)

What do you think of this latest media scandal for Sarah Palin and her family? Is it just the latest in a long line of embellishments or possible scandals that will likely follow this family for years to come? Or do you think there's more to the story?

Wow, the slinging is really going. How interesting. So if Trig is not Sarah's, whose is it? Hmm. what a rapidly producing family. They should be called the Rabbits.

From the photos taken three weeks before "giving birth" it's clear to anyone who is not completely deluded that she was not pregnant. There is nothing too small or too big for Sarah Palin to lie about. I think that was Steve Schmidt who said that. What amazes and shocks me is that nobody in the media other than the bloggers has challenged the crazy birth stories.

With my son I didn't look pregnant until about a week before I had him....

Was it your first pregnancy and are you normally rail thin with no extra fat. This was her 7th pregnancy and 5th birth, she was over 40 and in photos of previous pregnancies she is huge. Next time you see your gyno, show a photo of Sarah Palin taken 3 weeks before the birth and ask if it is possible. I'm not buying it. She has no problem telling lies as is well documented. I think this was a huge lie that so far she has gotten away with.

I don't understand why everyone is fascinated by this woman. Every man on the internet wants to have sex with her and every woman on the internet wants to kill her. I only wish that I could draw such an audience.
Kimberly Ripley Feb 10, 2011, 10:48pm UTC
Get in touch with her massage therapist....something could probably be arranged!!
Olivia Pitts Feb 10, 2011, 9:44pm UTC
The former half term governor (Quitty McGrifter) can stop all this immediately. All she has to do is release the birth certificate for TriG.
Lloyd 'Tony' Cope Feb 11, 2011, 3:50pm UTC
Good one Olivia. I believe Trig is a Muslim who was born in Kenya.
Janet "Jax" B. Feb 10, 2011, 10:23pm UTC
The whole thing is silly....sounds like someone wants their 5 min of fame.
Kimberly Ripley Feb 10, 2011, 10:47pm UTC
I think you may be right, Jax....that and some cash!!
Chris E. Feb 11, 2011, 8:08pm UTC
I agree too Janet.
Steve !!!! Feb 10, 2011, 10:29pm UTC
this is really getting strange. I don't care for Palin, but I have a hard time with this story.
Kimberly Ripley Feb 10, 2011, 10:46pm UTC
Sounds to me like the massage therapist is after something....most likely money.
Connie C. Feb 11, 2011, 12:19am UTC
Wonder if the media will ever leave that family alone to live in peace!

This is the original interview, http://theimmoralminority.blogspot.com/ The information you have is incorrect. She said she only massaged Sarah one between Jan and Mrach of 2008... She didn't say Sarah faked her pregnancy, she said she was shock to hear that Sarah was pregnant. She said the other staff was also shock because all gave her a massage and they asked Sarah if she was pregnany before they preform the procedure, Sarah told them, NO. Sarah was suppose to be 6 or 7 months pregnant during that time and show no sign of being pregnant and was able to lay flat on her stomach and back. Pregnant women lay on their side for a massage. Shailey Tripp have a blog check it out.

Melinda, excellent catch. Shailey Tripp expressed the same shock that most people in Alaska felt. A fellow legislator who worked closely with Sarah had commented, where was she keeping the baby - in her pocket? There was an interview at the GOP convention with the editor of the Alaska Daily News. He had tried to work with Sarah Palin to put the "rumor" that she had faked the pregnancy, to rest. Instead of helping to dispel the rumor, Palin became combative. Unfortunately two concepts became tied together. The rumors that Sarah Palin faked a pregnancy and that Bristol Palin had been pregnant prior to that. There is lots of circumstantial evidence of both those concepts. However since they got hooked together as in Bristol gave birth to Trig. Palin foisted her then pregnant daughter onto center stage to prove that she didn't fake a pregnancy to cover up for Bristol's. That took the air out of the story and it shouldn't have. Whether one agrees with her ideology or not, the various birth stories have huge holes in them and should be questioned because Sarah Palin is a proven liar.

lol. I think these were debunked a long time ago. When this Tripp woman was arrested, the Enquirer came out with a story that the cops found some kind of proof Todd Palin frequented her service for more than massage. However, the police dept. said no and they didn't know where the Enquirer got their info (it was supposedly an anonymous email.) I am no fan of Sarah Palin but neither do I understand why people would make up stories like these to discredit she and the family. There is just so much raw material in her personality, speech patterns, and general lack of intelligence you shouldn't NEED crazy stories.

Palingates has also done an interview with Shailey. In regards to her sexual relationship with Todd, she says Todd has some distinct personal body issue that no one would know about, unless they had been intimate with Todd. Very telling....
regina palingates Feb 11, 2011, 5:23pm UTC
No, we haven't.

Kimberly, rather than trust RadarOnline, check your facts first. Actually READ the Shailey Tripp interview. She never said Sarah Palin faked her pregnancy. She said that when she gave Sarah a massage she saw anything to indicate she was pregnant. There is a BIG difference. I see the a general tone in this blog that is making light of this situation, missing the point of the story, and does a disservice to the courage being displayed by her in coming forward. It is why so many people hold bloggers in low esteem. I suggest that anyone interested in really following this story listen to her interview posted on Youtube and read the one she did for Malia Litman. Kimberly, I know you want to get this right, so please fact check this and information your readers accordingly. This story is too important to make light of or allow others to take potshots at simply because her statements were mischaracterized.

Sounds like a combination money and media grab
Melinda Johnson Feb 11, 2011, 9:29pm UTC
Shailey Tripp isn't asking for money. She said NE came after her... go to her blog, google it.
