Right from the start, Kourtney has made her ambitions to be a good mom very well known over the years…

She has always emphasized how important her family is to her as well as her ex-husband, Scott Disick.

But because of this, she’s run into some problems when it comes to dating…

Of course, having an ex that you’re still very close to is bound to be difficult for a new boyfriend or girlfriend to accept.

Speaking on KUWTK, she and Scott opened up about how it feels to be “dating other people.”

They both agreed that it must be difficult for the other people that come into their lives as they have to deal with the “baggage” of her and Scott’s previous relationship as well as the one they have now.

Scott then went on to further outline how this led to the breakdown of his relationship with Sofia Richie, who he dated for 2 years before getting with (another) nineteen-year-old, Amelia Hamlin.

However, the pair called it quits after Disick was caught out sending derogatory messages about Kourtney to Younes Bendjima.

At the time, a source told E! News, “[Amelia] was very embarrassed over that whole situation and Scott wasn’t very remorseful.”

But while Scott has always been very public with who he has been dating, Kourtney had been straying away from the limelight.

Until her most recent one.

Kourtney went official with her new man, Travis Barker back in February 2021.

For those of you that might not be familiar with Travis, he is a musician and a producer, but he is best known for being the drummer in the rock band, Blink-182.

And not only that, but he was also a reality TV star for a while when he and his ex-wife starred in Meet the Barkers.

The show followed the drummer, his ex-wife Shanna Moakler and their children, documenting their lives together.

But unfortunately, the couple got divorced in 2008 after spending 4 years together.

After that, he focused mainly on his career, with his dating life remaining primarily under wraps until we heard about his late-night escapades with Kourt.

When we first heard rumors about this new couple in January 2021, many speculated whether they were actually dating or not.

It all started when the Kardashian posted a photo of herself relaxing in Palm Springs and soon after, Travis also posted a shot with a similar background.

Uncanny coincidence? I think not.

And then in February 2021, there were several paparazzi shots of them both enjoying each other’s company.

Just shortly after Valentine’s Day, it seems as though the 2 had a lot of catching up to do when they were grabbing dinner in Los Angeles.

Our suspicions were confirmed days later when a source said this:

“It’s been very low-key. They are a really good match, and Kourtney’s entire family already loves Travis. They have been neighbors and great friends for years, and it just recently turned romantic.”

The source continued:

  via Shutterstock  

“Travis has always had an eye for Kourtney. The chemistry and flirtation has always been there. They have a lot in common, and Kourtney has always been attracted to how Travis is as a parent. He’s an amazing, hands-on dad, and Kourtney loves that about him. They love relaxing at home with their kids, and everyone gets along. It’s going well, and they aren’t putting pressure on it being super serious at this point.”

And then on February 17 2021, both of them seemingly decided to confirm their relationship in matching snapshots.

The mom-of-3 just shared an image of her holding hands with a man with very distinctive tattoos. While she posted the photo without a caption, Barker subsequently shared the same snap on his Instagram Stories and gave us the spice we were looking for.

They were definitely together.

Fast forward a few months and they’re fully public with their relationship.

From red carpets to romantic days on the beach, the couple has been stealing the limelight wherever they go.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that the L-Word had been dropped pretty early on after Travis posted a sweet note on his Instagram Stories.

“I love you,” it said with a little heart. Even though the note wasn’t signed explicitly, fans noticed Kourtney’s distinctive handwriting on the post-it.

The smitten Kardashian was photographed next to Travis in the VIP section at the UFC Apex, next to Fox and Kelly who also sent the internet wild just over a year ago after they went official too.

Now I bet you’re wondering what Scott thinks about this whole thing, right?

As mentioned previously, he and Kourtney are still very close, but they have respect for each other’s relationships.

A source told PEOPLE that he isn’t worried about being replaced by the forty-five-year-old, who has also been a long-term friend of his.

The source said:

  via Shutterstock  

“Scott knows he always has a special place in Kourtney’s heart and that he can’t ever be replaced and will always be in the picture since he’s the father of their children.

“He isn’t threatened by Kourtney and Travis’s relationship at this point.”

It’s good to see they have mutual respect for each other’s partners.

But things are getting serious.

After a few flirty exchanges on Instagram, Kourtney and Travis cranked things up a notch.

He got Kourtney’s name tattooed on his chest, right next to his heart.

Posting to her Instagram, Kourtney gave us what we wanted: A close-up shot.

But if you thought that moment was wild, then wait until you hear this..

The couple got engaged!

Less than a year after they were first spotted together, the couple decided to devote their lives to each other.

Multiple outlets confirmed the happy news after Travis got down on one knee to propose in what has been described as one of the most “romantic” proposal set-ups ever.

The Kardashians also confirmed the news on social media, with Kourtney posting snapshots from the intimate moment alongside the caption “forever @travisbarker.”

Kim also took to her socials to celebrate the news, posting a cute video of the moment with “KRAVIS FOREVER,” and a ring emoji.

It was also reported that Khloe, Tristen Kris, Corey were all there to share the moment. Ugh, someone pass me a tissue, please.

Kourtney and Travis also revealed they’re trying for a baby in a new trailer for The Kardashians.

And we cannot wait!

In the first season of the series, fans saw Kourtney visiting Dr. Wood for IVF treatment.

The doctor got back to them with some good news, saying they have good follicles and have “multiple children.”

However, Kourtney told Wall Street Journal in an interview in September that she was taking a break from her IVF treatment…

As it was causing damage to her mental health.

She also told her mom on The Kardashians that the hormone treatment she was on was triggering “depression.”

“I just feel off and not myself. I’m super moody and hormonal. I’m a lunatic half the time,” Kourtney confessed.

However, the latest season of The Kardashians has dropped…

And things seem to be looking up for the couple as in the most recent episode, Kourtney gave an update on her IVF journey.

She revealed that one egg made it to an embryo.

Kourtney said: “We don’t know. We haven’t gotten an answer yet.”

“After eight months of our IVF journey, we took a break and wanted to try things naturally.

  via Shutterstock  

“The doctors had told us that we still had some really good looking follicles and it was the best they had seen,” she continued.

“Everyone involved, including our actual doctors, felt we should give it one more shot with an IVF retrieval.

  via Shutterstock  

“And so we did one final egg retrieval, and we are just waiting on the genetic testing results, but it has made it to an embryo,” Kourtney said.

Since then, Kourtney appeared on Dear Media’s Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast and revealed that her age played a huge factor in getting IVF treatment.

  via Getty Images  

She even noted that forty-year-olds are always told to get it done to help get pregnant.

“If you even look anything up online about things you can do to help get pregnant … it says on there, like, ‘If you’re over 40’ — or it might even say something younger — it says, ‘Go right away,’” Kourtney said.

  via Getty Images  

But that’s not all…

Kourtney revealed that they are “now done with IVF.” 

  via Getty Images  

And hopes she and Travis are blessed with a baby.

The star also confessed she felt pressurized to get IVF treatment done.

“So I felt a little bit pushed,” Kourtney admitted.

  via Getty Images  

And now, Kourtney has opened up about her relationship with her sister Khloé.

Kourtney admitted that even though her relationship with Khloé isn’t the same as before…

  via Getty Images  

They’re still inseparable.

“I think just life isn’t the same,” Kourtney said.

  via Shutterstock  

“I think I’m in a different place.”

Page Six reports that their mother, Kris Jenner, said that after Kim and Khloé both had kids around the same time…

  via Getty Images  

They became “two peas in a pod.”

“I just felt like they really bonded. They were going through the same things,” Kris told host Amanda Hirsch.

  via Getty Images  

She added: “That’s when I was unhappy with the show, partially ’cause of Khloé and Kim kind of ganging up on me.”

“I felt like it was almost everything that Khloé and I had done to Kim, and then they were like kind of flipping it on me,” Kris said. 

  via Getty Images  

Recently, Kourtney admitted that she’s been going to therapy to become more “self-aware.”

“I love it now, but it’s hard, and I felt just really sensitive. I was used to being such a b***h for so many years without any care. No one could shake me.

  via Getty Images  

“No one could rattle me, nobody could say something mean to me ’cause I would say something 20 times meaner back,” she admitted. 

Despite the distance between Kourtney and Khloé, she said the pair will always share a special bond.
