After doing Dancing With the Stars, Bristol Palin decided to move on with her life, on her own: she bought a house, wrote a book and is now preparing for a reality show. Reports say that she’s also found herself a new man – and her mother Sarah is none too pleased about it.

Not long ago, word had it that she was dating a pipeline worker from Alaska and she even hinted that she was happy with how things between the two were.

The National Enquirer (story via the Daily Mail) is saying that Bristol has moved on, and is now dating Kyle Massey, whom she met during her time on DWTS last season.

They recently started dating and things are getting serious between them, the tab claims. In fact, the two have moved in together and Bristol has every intention of having television cameras document the new romance for her reality show.

Understandably, Sarah is furious about it and she’d like her daughter to take her time with the new romantic interest, to see first if it’s worth going public with it.

“Sarah is furious at Bristol for going so quickly from man to man. She is doing her best to prevent Bristol’s new relationship from being featured in the reality show,” a spy tells the Enquirer.

Palin’s “best” apparently also includes considering moving in next to her daughter, with insiders telling the tab Sarah has been looking into the house next to Bristol’s.

Bristol is having none of that, though, and she’s determined to break free from her controlling mother, the report argues.

“Bristol told Sarah: ‘Back off and let me lead my own life!’ She doesn’t agree with her mom’s politics or her controlling ways,” says the spy.

This would come to confirm an earlier report about how the two Palins are having a fall-out over different opinions on anything from politics to aspects of their personal life.

“Bristol is completely rebelling against her mother – now that she’s experiencing life outside of Alaska and away from Sarah. She has opened her eyes and realized how sheltered and programmed she was,” another spy told the Enquirer some days ago.
