Today, we’re breaking down the complete timeline of Travis and Kourt’s relationship,
from the early days of being “just friends” on Keeping Up, to their recent BOMBSHELL engagement!
Let’s get into it.
If you’ve been on social media lately, you’ve probably seen Kourtney Kardashian and Travis
Barker’s super loved-up Instagram posts, which are pretty much a daily occurrence at
this point. But where did their whirlwind romance start, and how did this A-lister couple
get to where they are now?
Funny enough, things started all the way back in 2005 when Travis was dating Kim’s “boss”
at the time, Paris Hilton. Kim was actually the first Kardashian sister Travis met, and
later went into FULL detail about their first time meeting in a 2015 interview with Us.
He told reporters at the time, “"How could you not stare at Kim? Mind you, I enjoyed
hanging out with Paris, but I love curvy girls. Kim was eye candy. I was no way disrespectful
to Paris, but I couldn’t keep my eyes off Kim!"
Umm, seems like this guy clearly has a THING for the Kardashian women!
But soon, Travis began shifting his attention from Kim to Kourt.
You see, Kourtney and Travis had actually been long-time neighbors, with Kourt describing
the drummer as a “friend” in a 2017 episode of KUWTK. They were often spotted facilitating
playdates with their kids, who all got along well.
Travis was later included in some Kardashian holiday episodes, and even made a gingerbread
house with the family during season 14 of KUWTK.
And yes, although footage of Kravis pre-romance is few and far between, these sweet moments
TOTALLY reveal a sweet side of their relationship.
But things started heating up in December 2019, after reports of the couple dining together
at Nobu surfaced, once again sparking dating rumors.
Travis later went on to DENY the rumors in an interview with People, saying that “Kourtney's
like a dear friend. That's it. I mean, I love her to death. I love her family to death.
But yeah, just friends.”
Well, things obviously changed...
Because it’s pretty apparent now that their budding relationship was MUCH more than just
platonic when Travis started commenting on Kourt’s Instagram pics in December 2020.
To add fuel to the fire, some eagle-eyed fans also spotted a similarity between the background
in one of Kourt’s pics from her vacation in Palm Springs, and a post Travis made just
days later.
And while we were all eagerly awaiting Instagram confirmation of their relationship status,
sparks continued to FLY for Kourt and Travis.
Finally, after literal YEARS of speculation, Kravis seemingly confirmed their relationship
in January 2021 when they were spotted dining at a Japanese restaurant in LA.
And things only heated up from there!
After sharing similar pics from their super dreamy Valentine’s Day outing, Kourt posted
a pic of her holding hands with a man who had some...very distinct tattoos. Not exactly
keeping it a secret, guys!
From then on, it was pretty much full steam ahead for the couple. That same winter, Travis
posted a pic of Kourney’s swoon-worthy love letter to him on his Insta stories, and just
months after confirming their relationship, dropped some very public “i love you’s”
on social media!
And not too long after, Travis made his love for Kourt permanent, shocking fans with some
new ink reading, “Kourtney.” Phew, now that’s taking PDA to the next level!
That summer, Kourt and Travis took their relationship to new heights —literally. After refusing
to fly after surviving a plane crash back in 2008, Travis agreed to travel in Kylie
Jenner’s private jet with Kourt, where the two headed to Cabo San Lucas for a dreamy
getaway.
He posted a pic of the two to Instagram, tagging Kourt alongside the caption, “With you anything
is possible.” Aww!
And soon after, the globetrotting couple jetted off to Italy, where the couple was photographed
PACKING on the PDA while cruising around Venice. The somewhat NSFW pics caused quite a stir
across the internet, but honestly, the couple seemed pretty unfazed by the criticisms.
Which brings us to October, when the internet officially lost ALL chill after Kourt and
Travis revealed that after less than a year of dating, they were ENGAGED!
Kravis dropped the happy news on Oct. 17 after Travis popped the question at Rosewood Miramar
Beach in Monticello, California. The whole engagement was SUPER dreamy, with Travis dropping
to one knee to ask the big question, surrounded by stunning red roses.
And yes, a seriously HUGE 15-karat diamond ring to boot!
Of course, Kourtney said yes, and the couple has appeared even more over-the-moon in love
in the following weeks.
And according to multiple reports, Kourt and Travis have made it MORE than clear that despite
only being engaged for a matter of weeks, they already have babies on the brain!
According to an E! News insider, Travis and Kourt are “hoping to be expecting by next
year.” Umm, say what? These two better get a Hulu spin-off!
An Us Weekly insider also shared that Kourt and Travis “want to bring their own child
into the picture,” meaning we can hopefully expect Baby Kravis soon!
For now, we can’t WAIT for what will presumably be a jaw-dropping wedding, and are so eager
to see what the future holds for Kravis!
