A Kravis baby is here. Kourtney Kardashian and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker have welcomed their first child together, a son named Rocky. As new life begins, the maternity fits must come to an end.
After a brief health scare this summer, Kourtney and Travis officially welcomed their newborn this November. The public was tipped off to the news after Travis Barker was photographed pulling into Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles on the afternoon of Thursday, November 2. Shortly thereafter, Kylie Jenner’s Range Rover was spotted arriving around 3:30 p.m., per TMZ. Bystanders also claimed to have seen her entering the facility. Sources confirmed the news to People on November 4.

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker have been friends since 2015 and sparked dating rumors in early 2021 when they were spotted flirting on social media. They went public with their romance pretty quickly, and there was a quickie wedding in Vegas (not legal), another in Santa Barbara (legal), and an elaborate ceremony in Italy (religious; Travis is Catholic).
Neither Kourtney nor Travis are new to parenting. Kourtney and ex-boyfriend Scott Disick share three children: Penelope, Mason, and Reign. Meanwhile, Travis has a son, Landon, and a daughter, Alabama, from his marriage to Shanna Moakler. Travis also maintains a close relationship with his stepdaughter, Atiana De La Hoya.
Still, the couple has always been clear about wanting a child together. In a March 2022 episode of The Kardashians, Kourtney opened up about how IVF was going. After months of issues, Kardashian’s doctor was finally able to retrieve an egg. “I do love being a mom,” she said in a confessional, per People. “I think having that experience with Travis would just be incredible. I know he’s a really, really amazing father. It’s one of the reasons that I fell in love with him.” A source said that they began the IVF process within months of starting their relationship, and in June 2023, Kourtney announced that she was expecting by holding up a sign at a Blink-182 concert.
On September 1, fans were put on high alert when the musician shared photos of a “prayer room” on his Instagram Stories shortly before Blink-182 announced they were postponing their European tour dates so that Travis could attend to an “urgent family matter.” On September 6, Kourtney revealed her unborn baby required “urgent fetal surgery.”

“I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby’s life,” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this.”
Congrats to the whole family
