The news came Monday on an announcement from Sarah Palin's Facebook page.
They have informed loved ones that unfortunately the announced celebration planned for May 23 will not be held. Many friends and family still look forward to getting together that day in Kentucky anyway – and the Palins and Meyers are happily looking forward to still being at "the old Kentucky home" on May 23 to celebrate life, in general!
The shocking announcement came with a personal message from Bristol, addressing “salacious” headlines about Meyer’s previous marriage.
Regarding salacious headlines in recent days about "secret wives," Dakota and I discussed our past relationships prior to our engagement. Dakota was legally divorced years ago, as any good reporter could and should have disclosed to readers. As usual, false stories and dramatically written headlines begging controversy should be disregarded, and we have faith that our privacy will be respected at this time by those with decency. Thank you! – Bristol
The couple got engaged in March.
"Truly the luckiest girl in the world, cannot wait to marry this man!!!!" she wrote on Instagram at the time.
