Seriously, what’s going on with Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker? Though the two claim to only be friends, they continue to move in ways that suggest there’s more to their relationship.

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker were reportedly at Kris Jenner’s home together

To be clear, Kardashian and Barker weren’t captured in any photos together. But as E! News notes, both of them posted photos online of the same view of the infinity-edge pool at Jenner’s house in Palm Springs, fueling speculation that they were together.

The news comes after Barker left a rose emoji under an Instagram photo of Kardashian posing in front of a mirror in her closet. He also left a tulip emoji under a picture of her in the ocean and called her “so cool” after she posted stills from the movie True Romance.

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker have faced romance rumors a while

Kardashian and Barker were linked for the first time in 2018, when they were seen on their way to a church service. According to E! News, Barker explained on Kocktails With Khloe in 2016 that he and Kardashian tend to wind up in the same places because they live in the same neighborhood in Calabasas, California. However, romance rumors persisted.

Sources maintained their relationship was strictly platonic, though. “They’ve been friends for years,” an insider told E! News in 2019 after Kardashian and Barker were spotted together. “They’ve lived in the same neighborhood for a long time and they see each other at church and with their kids. They’ve hung out together many times and often get together with the kids to see movies or to get ice cream.” 

So far, it doesn’t appear that Kardashian has directly commented on the rumors or the nature of her relationship with Barker.

Who did Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker date previously?

Kardashian previously spent more than a year with model Younes Bendjima. She began dating him in 2016 after a nine-year relationship with Scott Disick, the father of her three children: sons Mason and Reign and daughter Penelope. She has also been linked to Justin Bieber and Luka Sabbat, among others, but none of those rumored romances were ever confirmed.

Meanwhile, Barker was married to Melissa Kennedy between the late ’90s and early 2000s. He then married and divorced model and actor Shanna Moakler, the mother of his two children, daughter Alabama and son Landon. He went on to date Rita Ora, but only a few months after they went public in 2015, they allegedly broke up. It’s his last known romance, at the time of this writing.
