Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian are celebrating a significant milestone in their relationship. On Instagram, Kardashian shared photos from their snowy getaway and captioned them, “One year ago today ❤️.” Barker, in response to the post, simply stated, “We made baby Rocky 🖤.”
The couple welcomed their first child together, Rocky, in November 2023. Kardashian is already a mother to three children, Mason, Reign, and Penelope, whom she co-parents with ex-partner Scott Disick. Barker also has two children, Landon and Alabama, from his previous marriage with Shanna Moakler and acts as a father figure to Moakler’s daughter Atiana.
While Kardashian and Barker had previously considered assisted fertilization methods, they were able to conceive Rocky naturally. In an interview with Vanity Fair Italia, Kardashian shared that she had felt pressured to pursue IVF treatments but ultimately listened to her intuition and decided it wasn’t the right path for her. She saw her pregnancy as part of “God’s plan” for her family.
Unfortunately, Kardashian’s pregnancy was considered high-risk due to her age and a fetal complication that required emergency surgery. In September 2023, she expressed her gratitude to her doctors for saving her baby’s life. She also praised her husband for rushing to her side and taking care of her during and after the hospital stay. Kardashian acknowledged the fear she experienced during the urgent fetal surgery and expressed admiration for other mothers who have had to fight for their babies’ well-being.
After the challenging journey, Kardashian gave birth to a healthy baby boy named Rocky Thirteen. While Kardashian and Barker feel that their family is complete, their oldest son Landon admitted to having some baby fear. Despite his initial hesitations, Landon believes that Rocky is the most adorable baby ever.
Overall, Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian’s love story continues to unfold, filled with happy moments and the joy of expanding their family.
