Will Travis Barker Be on ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’?
As a show following the lives of members of the Kardashian family, there’s naturally a lot of relationship coverage on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Guys such as Rashad McCants, French Montana, Tyga, and Kris Humphries have all been featured on the show since its 2007 premiere. But what about Travis Barker?
With the news of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s romance, there are questions about whether he’ll be on KUWTK too. While the Blink-182 drummer is typically a private person, there are some signs that he could appear on the show, which will air its 20th and final season in 2021.
Many of Kourtney Kardashian’s boyfriends have appeared on ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’
In the time since KUWTK came out, Kardashian has appeared on the show alongside many of her partners. This notably includes Scott Disick, with whom she shares three children: Mason, Penelope, and Reign. During their nine-year relationship, Disick was heavily featured in the series as it documented their ups and downs. The two would eventually split in 2015, but he remains a key part of the show.
There’s also Younes Bendjima, a model Kardashian dated from 2016 to 2018. Though he wasn’t on the show as much as Disick, he came up in many discussions and was a big part of Kardashian’s storyline at certain points.
That said, it seems likely Travis Barker could make an appearance on ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’
It’s ultimately up to him, though. There’s also the fact that Kardashian won’t be on KUWTK as much, explaining to Vogue Arabia that it became “toxic” for her to show so much of her life.
“I have been filming the show non-stop for 14 years,” she began. “I was feeling unfulfilled and it became a toxic environment for me to continue to have it occupy as much of my life as it was. Privacy is something I have come to value and finding that balance of private moments with being on a reality show is hard. People have this misconception that I don’t want to work, which isn’t true. I am following my happiness and putting my energy into that which makes me happy.”
She also said on a 2019 episode that the show negatively impacted her relationships, specifically with Disick. “I shared everything from my relationship with Scott — everything — to where all these people were involved in my relationship and it was horrible for our relationship,” she said.
However, she’s still been open with Barker. She was even the first one to post a picture of them on social media, sharing a photo to Instagram of them holding hands.
With that, it seems it could go either way. We guess you’ll just have to wait until KUWTK Season 20 comes out to see whether Barker makes it onto the show.
