The blended family of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker united to revel in the joy of the couple’s pregnancy announcement.
Kardashian, a star from the hit show The Kardashians, now 44, sprung the news on Barker, 47, during his concert with Blink-182 on Friday, June 16, with their offspring in the audience.
“Dad the greatest of all time,” Barker’s 17-year-old daughter, Alabama Barker, exclaimed on her Instagram Story, sharing a snapshot of her father on stage, beating the drums.
Alabama is Travis’s daughter with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler, and the couple also have a 19-year-old son, Landon Barker. She reposted Kardashian’s announcement, captioning her own post, “Baby #7”.
Alabama’s elder sister, Atiana De La Hoya, joined the Friday concert alongside her friend Natalie Mandoyan.
“The ‘Stay together for the kids’ performance was electrifying,” the 24-year-old daughter of Moakler and Oscar De La Hoya, commented via Instagram Story, sharing clips of herself and her best friend swaying in the floor section.
Kardashian unveiled her pregnancy with her fourth child – and her first with the Blink-182 drummer – during the concert. She surprised Travis with a poster that read, “Travis, I’m pregnant,” a nod to the band’s “All the Small Things” music video.
“Hey Travis, we’ve got a declaration to make!” his bandmate Mark Hoppus announced during the concert, in a video captured on Kardashian’s social media. “We’ve got some fantastic news! Let’s cheer for Travis… he’s going to be a dad again!”
After the surprise, the founder of Barker Wellness, descended from his drum kit and found his wife in the crowd, marking the moment with a passionate kiss.
Kardashian, who wed Barker in May 2022, already has three children – sons Mason, 13, Reign, 8, and daughter Penelope, 10 – whom she shares with ex Scott Disick. Penelope was with the Poosh founder at the concert, confirmed by the Instagram Story pictures posted by her close friend, Simon Huck. The PR whiz shared images of Kardashian and Penelope in the crowd moments after the reality TV star shared her baby news.
The couple, Kardashian and Barker, had previously tried multiple rounds of IVF to conceive their first child together. But they decided to pause their family planning endeavors before their wedding in Italy.
“We started on a journey with IVF, but I put a stop to it. It was overwhelming. I took a break to concentrate on our wedding and married life,” Kardashian shared with WSJ. magazine in September 2022. “There are so many things you can’t do: no sex, no caffeine, no alcohol, no sugar. You’ve got to stick to a very clean, strict diet for five days. It’s a body reset.”
Further explaining her experience, she added, “You undergo all these rituals, which involve detoxifying your tissues. Then you head to this spa where you undertake treatments for four hours daily. It’s a process filled with ritualistic elements and purpose, and it’s quite intriguing. Primarily, I was doing it to cleanse my body, in preparation to hopefully conceive a baby.”
