Kourtney Kardashian & Travis Barker Welcome Their First Child Together
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker have welcomed their first child together. The couple – who married in a trio of ceremonies in 2022, culminating in a Dolce & Gabbana-filled celebration in Portofino – shared that they were expecting a boy at a gender reveal party in June. Kourtney had previously announced her pregnancy at a Blink-182 concert, joyfully jumping up and down in the crowd with a “Travis, I’m Pregnant” sign.
Refreshingly, the eldest Kardashian sister has made no secret about the difficulty she experienced getting pregnant in her forties – nor about how much she loves being a mother, with three children from her previous relationship with Scott Disick. “I’m one of those people who is obsessed with being pregnant,” she told Vogue last month, before speaking candidly about the toll that IVF took on her. “I felt really pressured and pushed into doing [it],” the Lemme founder – who is renowned for her clean lifestyle – said. “It went against my intuition, and I didn’t feel fully prepared for the mental or physical toll it takes.” Ultimately, she ended up ceasing her in vitro treatments, conceiving naturally with Travis a short while later. “It was an indescribable feeling. Shock, then super happy… fear sets in, worry, but I remembered then to have gratitude.”
While neither Kourtney nor Travis has commented on the birth just yet or posted photos introducing their little one to the world, the latter did let slip that the newest addition to their blended family would have just as distinctive a name as the other Kardashian progeny: Rocky Thirteen Barker. Here’s hoping he becomes either a boxer or a diehard Swiftie.
