Kourtney Kardashian has a new boo: See her with her boyfriend
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker first drew public attention as a possible couple back in early 2021, when longtime friends began appearing together in ways that suggested more than platonic connection. Their early sightings fueled speculation that quickly moved from rumor to confirmed relationship status.
Instagram shenanigans
Early flirtatious comments from Barker on Kardashian’s posts, including emoji replies and praise for her beach photos, turned into an Instagram official announcement by February 2021. Those initial interactions paved the way for public marriage announcements and a shared social media presence that has continued through their engagement and wedding coverage.
Visiting family
The January 2021 trip to Palm Springs, where Barker joined Kardashian at her mother’s vacation home, marked an early sign of family integration. Later blended family gatherings built on that foundation, showing how the initial visit fit into a longer pattern of shared family events.
Date night?
Paparazzi photos of the pair holding hands at a sushi dinner in early 2021 led to public dating confirmation shortly afterward. Those outings gave way to more formal milestones, including an engagement later that year and multiple wedding ceremonies in 2022.
Possibly confirmed
Anonymous sources at the time described a low-key romance that had been building for months. The timeline since then removed any uncertainty: the couple confirmed their relationship publicly in 2021, married in 2022, welcomed a son in 2023, and remain together in 2026.
Marriage and family expansion
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker married in May 2022 across three ceremonies in Las Vegas, Santa Barbara, and Italy. The couple welcomed son Rocky Thirteen Barker in November 2023, expanding their household and marking the first child born to the pair.
Recent public appearances
In June 2026 the couple attended the Tribeca Film Festival for the premiere of Travis Barker’s documentary. It was their first joint red carpet appearance in over two years, with coordinated black outfits drawing attention as a rare coordinated outing.
Blended family life
Kourtney brings three children from her previous relationship with Scott Disick, while Travis has three children from an earlier partnership. Rocky’s arrival in 2023 created a household of seven children, with the couple navigating the logistics of raising the younger child alongside his older siblings.
Ongoing co-parenting with Scott Disick
Updates in 2025 showed Kourtney Kardashian continuing to describe co-parenting as positive and stable. The focus remains on raising Mason, Penelope, and Reign in an amicable arrangement that has held steady since the early days of her relationship with Barker.
The early 2021 sightings and comments that once sparked online debate now read as the start of a relationship that progressed through public confirmation, marriage, and the arrival of a shared child. Current appearances and family updates reflect a household that has settled into a steady, blended routine years after the initial speculation.
