Travis Barker reveals one rule in Kourtney Kardashian marriage

Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker has opened up about the one rule he and Kourtney Kardashian stick to in their relationship.

Travis Barker has revealed the one rule he and Kourtney Kardashian have in their marriage.

The Blink-182 drummer, who tied the knot with the 47-year-old reality star in May 2022 after they started dating the previous year, has opened up about the secret to keeping their relationship in a health place.

He told PEOPLE magazine: “We try not to ever fall asleep mad at each other.

“[We] try to resolve, even if it’s just like, ‘Hey, I thought you were going to meet me for lunch, and you didn’t text me back right away, so I didn’t know if we were meeting for lunch.’

“Even if it’s just as simple as, like, ‘Oh babe, I take accountability. I’m sorry. I didn’t see your text right away.’

“Just resolving anything so you don’t go to bed not feeling connected is really important.”

The couple have a blended family together, as Kourtney has kids Mason, 16, Penelope, 14, and Reign, 11, with ex Scott Disick, while Travis has son Landon, 22, and Daughter Alabama, 20, with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler.

Justin Krook and Michael Dwyer, the directors of Travis’ new documentary Louder Than Fear, have explained how Kourtney has changed the pop punk legend’s life.

Justin explained to PEOPLE: “He was very close with his kids, but within the last couple of years, he’s found the love of his life and I’ve really seen this sense of ease permeate him.

“You carry your shoulders like this and I just see him relaxing the last few years.

“I think it’s a large testament to his family.”

The new documentary explores Travis’ life and music career, including the lasting trauma he experienced after a 2008 plane crash that left him with a fear of flying.

The directors joined Travis on board the Queen Mary 2 early in the production process, as Travis – who is the drummer for the rock band Blink-182 – travelled by boat for a European tour.

The directors ultimately came to recognise that Travis has learned to live with trauma, rather than overcoming it.

Michael explained: “The key distinction that we found over making this film is that it was not necessarily about overcoming [trauma] because I don’t think you actually overcome [it]. You actually live with [it].”
