Before tying the knot with Travis Barker, Kourtney Kardashianwas simply bound to explore her single era.
Indeed, while chatting with stepsonLandon Barkerand his pal Carl Dawson during the Oct. 22 episode ofThe Kardashians, Kourtney joked that they should “wait” until they’re get married before hooking up with anyone.
But after a producer cheekily asked whether she and Travis—who tied the knot in 2022—followed that same advice, it led to Kourtney running away with a revelation about what Kim Kardashian’s ex Kanye “Ye” Westonce told her.
“No, but I remember Kanye told me, ‘I feel like God is calling me to tell you that you should not hook up with any randoms,” the Lemme founder—who shares kids Mason Disick, 16, Penelope Disick, 14, and Reign Disick, 11, with ex Scott Disick and son Rocky Barker, 2, with Travis—admitted, “‘until you are with your husband.’ And I didn’t.”

After all, Kourtney has been clear over the years about how when her bond with Travis grew into more than being just friends, it was far from a small thing.
“We would almost, like, play house because we would do things together with our kids,” she explained of their closeness during a 2022 episode of The Kardashians. “We would go to museums and go to church.”
But she wasn’t the only one who was clearly feeling this.
“My closest, best friends have always said, ‘You have to hook up with Travis,’’ she recalled at the time, adding, “I was definitely always attracted to Travis. I think it was just the right time in my life.”
And that period of her personal life led to her to follow her heart one more time. “We were texting and I put it out there,” she noted, “like flirtatious conversation.”
And after their first date—where Kourtney was the one to make the first move—their romance became what life is truly about.
“The second we fell in love,” she shared at the time, “we knew how different it was than anything either of us have had before.”

More than a decade in, Kris gushed about her “ride or die” in a 2025 birthday tribute, writing, “Thank you for all you do every single day, for the love you give, and for always being there for all of us. I’m so blessed to have you by my side.”
She got fans hoping she was getting back in the dating game with retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady.
Alas, the mom to North West, Saint West, Chicago West and Psalm West—with ex-husband Kanye West—wasn’t on the hunt for a new teammate, a source telling E! News in May 2023, “They have friends and business partners in common.”
By early 2026, she was racing into a new romance with Lewis Hamilton, hard-launching her relationship with the F1 driver that June.
After her divorce, she told The Times in October, “I wanted to completely heal and just work on myself. I wasn’t ready to open up. I really wasn’t even thinking about it. The universe works in your favor when you just allow it to.”
She’s more interested in starting a fresh story. After meeting Love Is Blind star Alexa Lemieux the following April, Khloe pitched a winning idea to Netflix, writing on Instagram, “I think some of us single K sisters should go on LIB. What do you think?”
Then in the spring of 2026, fans started to wonder if a new romance was in bloom as Kendall was spotted hanging out with Jacob Elordi. The Euphoria alum was among those cheering for the model when she walked in Milan Fashion Week in September 2026.
Now, rise and shine because you don’t want to miss the glimpses they’ve given us of their romance at New York Fashion Week and the US Open, as well as live on TV, when they showed PDA while seated together at the 2024 Golden Globes and 2025 Oscars.
Then, while accepting Best Actor at the 2026 Critics Choice Awards in January, he thanked his “partner of three years,” for the foundation she provides, adding, “I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
