BY RACHEL D'ORO / AP 8:10 PM EDT

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Sarah Palin’s husband, commonly referred to as “Alaska’s first dude” when she was governor, appears to be seeking a divorce from his wife of 31 years.

Paperwork believed to be from Todd Palin cited “incompatibility of temperament” in seeking to end his marriage to the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee.

The filing Friday in Anchorage Superior Court only identified the couple by initials. The initials, birthdates and wedding date match the Palins, as does the initials given for their only young child.

The documents list the minor as T.P.V.P., born April 18, 2008, the same date Sarah Palin gave birth to Trig Paxon Van Palin, the youngest of the couple’s five children.

"What's in it for us?" when asked about her appearing somewhere. She did NOT give birth to "her youngest child" Her daughter did that.

Sarah Palin's husband 'files for divorce'
3 hours ago





The husband of former US vice-presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, has filed for divorce, according to US media.

Papers filed in Anchorage, Alaska, on Friday identified the couple by initials - but birth and wedding dates match those of the Palins.

The paperwork, reportedly filed by Todd Palin, cited an "incompatibility of temperament" as the reason for divorce.

The Palins, both 55, married in 1988 and have five children together.

The documents mention "an incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife".

I hold most if not all of what they stand for in distain.

I figure divorce is a tough thing, no matter where the parties align themselves along the political spectrum.
