As Kourtney Kardashian’s romance with Travis Barker continues to heat up, many fans are starting to look into how well the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star gets along with his two teenage kids. With Kourtney having three little ones of her own, she appears to be taking a friendly approach to bonding with Landon and Alabama Barker. Their mother, Shanna Moakler, has even teased their love for all the gifts Kourtney has been buying them.
Around the time Kourtney and Travis confirmed their romance by posting pics of the same poolside view, sources began to reveal details about how the two stars sparked a flame. They had been friends and neighbors for years, with their kids often hanging out with each other. Insiders claimed their kids helped bring them together, due to all the time they would spend together. With the Poosh founder being no stranger to Travis’ growing teens, it’s likely it was easy to build a more genuine connection with the teens once Kourtney started dating their father, especially when it comes to his 15-year-old daughter Alabama.
It’ll be a few more years before Kourtney’s daughter, Penelope, becomes a teenager, But it looks like Kourt has found a new friend in young social influencer Alabama. Last weekend, Alabama shared a video of Kourtney playing around in Barker’s backyard. It was the first video of the reality star spending time with Travis’s family. In the clip, captured by the TravisKourt fan page, it showed Kourtney laughing while sliding down the drummer’s giant blow-up slide. Travis’s daughter could be heard laughing with her dad’s new girlfriend. The teen tagged the reality star in the video posted on her Instagram Story, and Kourtney reposted it on hers.
The video is just the latest sign of how close the two have gotten since the Blink-182 drummer started dating the KUWTK star. Over the Christmas holiday, one month before their romance was confirmed, reports surfaced that Kourtney purchased a designer handbag as a Christmas gift for Alabama. In the weeks that followed, Kourtney was seen liking and leaving comments under the teen influencer’s Instagram pics. There was even one photo that Alabama took with her older sister, Ataina De Le Hoya, where Kourtney left two hearts in the comments. Travis has still maintained a fatherly role in Ataina’s life despite his 2006 divorce from Shanna.
Just last month, Shanna cleared up speculation that she shaded Travis’ newfound romance with some of her questionable social media activity. She shared how happy she is for Travis and confirmed they are friends and co-parents who haven’t dated in over 10 years. She also teased how much her kids adore Kourtney and love all the nice gifts she’s been buying them.
