Rejoice and be glad, brothers and sisters, for the loom of life spins on, and Kardashians continue to make more Kardashians. Kourtney Kardashian, for example, now has four children of her own.
This represents a 33% uptick in her personal Kardashian output. Her first three kids are shared with ex-partner and former Kardashian upkeeper Scott Disick. The first, Mason, was born in December 2009. 11-year-old Penelope joined the crew in July 2012, and eight-year-old Reign entered the world in 2014. For more on their conceptions, births, and early childhoods, check out Keeping Up with the Kardashians, where such things were chronicled in-depth.
Kourtney, the oldest of the Kardashian sisters, parted ways with Disick by the end of 2015. In 2021, she began a relationship with the man who would later become her first husband, drummer Travis Barker of Blink-182. They were married twice in 2022 — once in an unofficial, just-for-fun wedding in Las Vegas in April, then again the next month in Santa Barbara. In June 2023, she and Barker announced the forthcoming arrival of their first child together.
Barker has two children of his own — Landon Barker, born 2003, and Alabama Barker, born 2005. He has also remained famously close with his stepdaughter (from a previous marriage), Atiana De La Hoya, born in 1999, daughter of boxer Oscar De La Hoya and model-slash-actress Shanna Moakler.
Kourtney Kardashian’s pregnancy put her back in the spotlight in recent days. While the 44-year-old celebrity personality and occasional face of Coca-Cola was deep in the joyous throes of expectant motherhood, rumors of difficulties made the rounds. Her dearly beloved husband abruptly called off a series of concert appearances in the U.K., citing “an urgent family matter” and posting on social media about his need for comfort and prayers.
But then, good news: On November 4, 2023, People confirmed that Kardashian and Barker had welcomed their first shared bundle of joy, a bouncing baby boy who we will undoubtedly find ourselves keeping up with in the very near future. While it will be a long time before the couple reveals their baby’s name, Barker has admitted that he is considering the moniker “Rocky 13” even though he knows that it’s a “bad” choice.
