TEEN Mom’s Bristol Palin’s ex-husband Dakota Meyer has admitted it’s a “struggle” to find time to spend with his daughters.
The former couple, who share Sailor Grace, 8, and 4-year-old Atlee Bay, had a rocky relationship before ultimately parting ways in January 2018.

The pair now co-parent the two girls, with Dakota admitting he wishes he had more time to be with them.
During a Instagram Q&A, a fan asked: “How do you balance with all that you do, with time with your girls?
To which he replied: “It’s a constant struggle for sure.
“Trying to balance working to provide them a life they deserve and giving them all my time… I’m still working on it everyday…
“I am just lucky I am surrounded by the people that I am who make up for my shortcomings.”
Dakota and Bristol had a very on/off relationship.
After calling off their engagement in May 2015, the Alaskan native announced her pregnancy with their eldest daughter.
The couple later rekindled their romance and married in May 2016, welcoming their second child the following year.
Their relationship drama played out on the MTV reality series, Teen Mom OG when Bristol replaced original cast member Farrah Abraham.
Her reality television career came to an end when she quit the show the following season.
Years after her split from Dakota, Bristol started dating boyfriend Zach Towers.
In October 2020, The Celeb Report reported that Bristol and Zach split just months after going public with their romance.
The 30-year-old real estate agent announced their break-up in an Instagram Q&A and hinted that she went to “hell and back” during their relationship.
Bristol – who is the daughter of former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin – was asked by a fan: “Are you still dating that same guy?”
The mother of three replied bluntly: “No.”
She also shared a post that read: “I’m not going through hell and back with no man. Drop me off.”
It is not known exactly when they split up.
