Why would Kourtney and Travis, famous for their public displays of affection, go for such a modest wedding? Insiders claim that the two got forced to stage that legal ceremony! Find out why below.
Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker – Wed!
Santa Barbara, California has become famous for its celebrity residents like Oprah Winfrey and Meghan Markle. And now the city can also claim that it hosted Kourtney Kardashian’s and Travis Barker’s wedding! In the wake of that “practice” ceremony in Las Vegas in early April, the 43-year-old reality TV star and 46-year-old drummer tied the knot on Sunday, insiders told People.
However, in contrast to Kourtney’s engagement, the reality TV star kept her ceremony surprisingly intimate and simple. When Travis proposed, he staged the moment on a California beach in October 2021. And as the cameras rolled for “The Kardashians” reality TV show, Barker and Kardashian followed up with an elaborate dinner for all their relatives.
But at the wedding on Sunday, Kourtney and Travis invited only selected family members and the couple’s closest friends. As a result, rumors swirled about the reason for such a modest ceremony. An insider revealed the reason.
Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker – Forced To Stage Legal Wedding!
Because Travis and Kourtney want to throw a huge wedding, they felt forced to stage the legal ceremony first. “They had to legally get married first ahead of their big Italian wedding, which is happening very soon,” explained a source. “All the details are set and the whole family, including all the kids, are very excited.”
However, don’t ask Kourtney’s mother, 66-year-old Kris Jenner, to spill any details. Kris has taken a vow to stay silent. And she even joked that she got “sworn to secrecy” over the big Italian wedding plans. “If I say one thing about a wedding, I am gonna be in so much trouble!” confessed Jenner.
Because Kourtney and Travis both parent children with others, the future ceremony will likely incorporate those kids. Kardashian and her ex boyfriend Scott Disick co-parent two sons, Mason, 12, and Reign, 7, and daughter Penelope, 9. Barker co-parents his son Landon, 18, and daughter Alabama, 16, with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler. In addition, the musician has stayed close to his stepdaughter, 23-year-old Atiana, whose parents are Moakler and boxer Oscar De La Hoya.
