It’s official: Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian are married! The couple reportedly married in a private ceremony in Las Vegas, Nevada, just hours after walking the red carpet at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards.
The news was first reported by TMZ. According to the outlet, Kourtney and Travis married in the middle of the night at a wedding chapel in Vegas on Monday, April 4, 2022, after walking into the venue around 1:30 a.m. According to sources who spoke with the publication, the couple brought their photographer and security, which can only mean that photos of Kourtney and Travis’ wedding already exist—and it’s only a matter of time before the happy couple decides to share them with the rest of the world.
In terms of whether their Vegas wedding was truly legal, TMZ reports that the couple arrived with a marriage licence in hand. Meanwhile, the wedding chapel owner served as a witness to their marriage. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and Blink-182 drummer reportedly requested an Elvis Presley impersonator to officiate the ceremony as well. According to TMZ sources, Kourtney and Travis will likely have another ceremony in the future, with “several” other celebrations with “lots of fanfare.” While friends and family will have to wait for a larger ceremony at a later date, all signs appear to confirm that Kourtney and Travis are legally married.
Kourtney and Travis’ marriage announcement comes less than six months after the couple announced their engagement. On October 17, 2021, the couple announced their engagement on Instagram, with the Poosh founder posting a photo of herself and her then-fiancé on a beach surrounded by candles and roses. “Forever @travisbarker,” she wrote in the caption. A source told People at the time that the reality star wasn’t expecting the proposal, which happened during a romantic dinner date at a beachside hotel in Montecito, California.
“It was completely unexpected for Kourtney. “Travis told her family that he was planning to propose, but everyone was fantastic at keeping it a secret,” the insider said. “The Rosewood is their go-to for quick weekend getaways.” They frequently stay at the hotel. This is why Travis proposed that location. It’s a very special place to them, but proposing there also made it easier to keep everything a secret.”
“It was a very romantic beach proposal at sunset,” the source continued. Travis took Kourtney for a walk, and you could tell she was confused when she saw all the roses on the beach. Red and white roses were arranged in the shape of a heart. There were numerous candles. They both appeared to be in a good mood.”
Kourtney’s marriage is her first. The reality star has never married, but she has three children with her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick: Mason, 11, Reign, 6, and Penelope, 8. Travis, on the other hand, has been married twice. From 2001 to 2002, he was married to actress Melissa Kennedy. From 2004 to 2008, he was married to model Shanna Moakler. Alabama, 15, and Landon, 18, are the former couple’s two children.
