Scott Disick is reportedly distancing himself from the Kardashian family following Kourtney’s
recent engagement to Travis Barker to process the news!
Let’s get into it.
In the slim chance you haven’t heard already, Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker proposed to
Kourtney Kardashian at the Rosewood Miramar Beach Hotel in Montecito, California on October
17th.
And let’s just say that Kourtney’s ex, Scott Disick, didn’t take the news too well.
While wedding bells may be ringing for Kourt and Travis, Scott’s definitely not hearing
that sweet, sweet music.
Scott and Kourt first met back in 2006, and were together on-and-off for nearly a decade
before calling it quits in 2015.
While the couple never married, they share 3 kids together; Mason, 11, Penelope, 9, and
Reign, 6.
Travis and Kourt have only dated for a fraction of the time that she and Scott were together,
but the two definitely seem to have that soulmate connection.
Their whirlwind romance made fans wonder if Travis was planning on eventually popping
the question.
And as you know, that happened this week!
And now according to a People magazine source, following the news of the engagement, Scott
is reportedly “distancing himself from his ex's famous family in order to make his peace
with the engagement news.”
The source that’s allegedly close to the Kardashians told People QUOTE, "Scott hasn't
really wanted to deal with Travis and Kourtney because he didn't feel like he'd have to...At
first, it seemed like it was just a casual relationship to him, nothing serious.
So he pretty much put that on mute.
Hasn't been giving it too much brain power, thinking that eventually, they'd break up."
But according to the adorable pics of their beachside engagement, Kourt and Travis aren’t
just in it for the long run—they’re in it QUOTE, “forever.”
Photos from the night of the proposal, posted by various members of the fam, show Kravis
in a sweet embrace, surrounded by hundreds of red roses.
When the rest of the Kardashian fam was celebrating the happy news at Travis and Kourt’s engagement
dinner, Scott was allegedly “beside himself” after reports of the proposal broke on Sunday
night.
According to E, Scott and Kourt are “not on speaking terms.”
Ouch!
To rub salt into the wound, Kourt recently
shared new photos of their stunning engagement on Instagram with the caption, “I woke up
all night thinking it was a dream.”
Travis posted a sweet pic of his own, writing “My fiancé” and following it up with
a rose and black heart emoji.
The People source went on to say, "Now [Scott’s] being forced to deal with it, which is uncomfortable.
He knows he has to lean into the discomfort and get past it.
He understands that it's not Kourtney's job or Travis's job to make him okay with this.
It's his job, and if he's going to co-parent with Kourtney, which he has been, he has to
process this and make his peace with it."
The source added, "distancing himself from the family" is a way for Scott to achieve
that.
"It's not about them, it's not about Kourtney.
It's about him needing some time to process this and deal with it on his own, without
them.
He'll come around soon."
And while the Karjenner family is currently celebrating, processing the engagement for
Scott might feel more like a nightmare.
A source told Us Weekly that while the Kardashians love Scott and think of him as part of the
family, he felt QUOTE, “very distant” and “like an outcast more than ever” prior
to Kourt and Travis’ engagement.
Yikes!
But regardless of how much Scott approves of the freshly-engaged couple, fans are over-the-moon
happy for Kravis.
One Twitter user said, “I don’t care, im in love with #kravis they’re the ultimate
power couple and im here for it”
Others were empathetic towards Scott, with one person tweeting, “I don't care for him,
but I feel bad for him.
@ScottDisick hang in there.
#KRAVIS.”
Someone else added, “Ok I am obsessed w #Kravis like….
having seen Kortney struggle to find peace w Scott for so long vs how happy and in love
she is now!
It’s a vibe.
An inspiration.”
And while we’ve all been eagerly watching Scott’s socials to see if he was going to
make any kind of official statement, the only post thus far since the engagement news is
this instagram story posted on Wednesday where he wrote “After school breakdown with reign.”
It’s not clear exactly who was breaking down though, though it’s most likely Scott,
since we see Reign smiling.
Our hearts go out to Scott because that’s never easy.
With all of this new drama, we’re feeling like Keeping up with the Kardashians never
really ended.
But also we’re eagerly awaiting getting to watch it all unfold on their new Hulu show
when it premieres!
