Travis Barker is grateful to have his family’s support, including wife Kourtney Kardashian, amid a recent hospital visit.
“My baby girl came with me,” Barker, 50, wrote via his Instagram Stories on Tuesday, October 6, sharing a selfie with his 20-year-old daughter, Alabama, as he sat in a hospital bed while wearing a medical gown and cap.
As Barker was apparently wheeled into an operating room, Kardashian, 47, walked alongside the gurney.
“And my beautiful wife [was] by my side,” he wrote, sharing a snap of Kardashian kissing him.
Neither Barker nor Kardashian have revealed the reason for his hospitalization. The couple have been married since 2022, welcoming son Rocky the following year. (The Blink-182 drummer and Kardashian are each parents of three from previous relationships.)
The Kardashians star gave birth to Rocky, her rainbow baby, in 2023 after a previous pregnancy loss. Following her miscarriage, Kardashian underwent multiple rounds of IVF cycles before conceiving Rocky without medical intervention.
“The truth is, I felt like I was doing something that wasn’t right for me,” she told Vanity Fair Italia in an October 2023 profile. “My intuition was telling me that it wasn’t suitable for me. I don’t even take medicine, [so] imagine that it was working against my body rather than for it.”
Later in her pregnancy, Kardashian faced an undisclosed medical complication that required emergency fetal surgery.
“Right after the surgery, I reached the point where I let myself go and I stopped worrying,” she recalled to the Italian magazine at the time. “Now I talk to the baby every day, have a positive mindset, keep my head straight, and say a lot of prayers. I feel really lucky and grateful. I have a lot of gratitude. Not that I didn’t have it before, but perhaps since it came easy to me, I took the pregnancy for granted.”
Since welcoming Rocky and marrying Barker, Kardashian also took a step back from hanging out with her famous sisters.
“They think that Travis is shielding you from the family, which is probably the biggest misread of the century,” Kardashian’s friend Simon Huck said in a trailer for the upcoming eighth season of The Kardashians.
Kardashian responded affirmatively, noting that her children were her “biggest priority” above all else.
“I’m very happy with my life,” the Poosh founder stated, adding that she doesn’t ruminate over what her siblings think about her behavior.
The Kardashians season 8 premieres on Hulu Thursday, October 8.
