Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker are parents to a total of seven children, including their first baby together, Rocky Thirteen Barker. The reality TV star shares three kids with her ex, Scott Disick: Mason, Penelope, and Reign.

The Blink-182 drummer also has three children with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler: Atiana De La Hoya (stepdaughter), Landon Barker, and Alabama Barker. In a 2024 Christmas Eve family photo, all the kids were present except for Alabama, whose birthday was that day.

It was nearly a week before the young musician was hospitalized for “nicotine withdrawal.” Alabama’s absence from the family event further fueled rumors of distance between her and the Kardashians, specifically Kendall and Kylie Jenner, and even their mom, Kris…

Fans Think Alabama Barker Has “Beef” With Kylie And Kendall Jenner

Online Critics Suspect That Kylie and Kendall Jenner Are “Jealous” Of Alabama Barker

In May 2023, a Redditor shared elaborate theories about Alabama’s “beef” with Kris, Kendall, and Kylie. “Curious to know what the beef is,” the poster noted that “Alabama does not follow: Kris Kendall Khloé Rob,” and Kylie on Instagram and that they don’t follow her either.”

They listed a few theories about the speculated rift. The first one was Alabama’s friendship with Jordyn Woods’ younger sister, Jodie. Although Jordyn and Kylie recently reunited for a TikTok, they had a years-long falling out after the former was caught on video making out with Khloé’s then-beau, Tristan Thompson.

Another theory, which many other people seem to agree with, is that Kendall and Kylie are “jealous” of Alabama because she’s “younger.” A commenter added that Alabama was “copying” Kylie’s style on social media, which has unfortunately been slammed as blackfishing.

“She’s a threat to Kylie seems like,” they explained. “… It’s either jealousy for ageing out of that persona or second hand embarrassment or both.” As for Kendall, the r/KUWTKsnark members just presumed Alabama discovered the model was “rude [as f*** in real life].”

Fans Think Kris Jenner Sees Alabama Barker As A “Threat”

Kris Jenner Isn’t The Manager Of Alabama Barker

Another theory the Redditor had was that the Kardashian-Jenners “cannot monetize” Alabama are “threatened by her taking away money and attention.” The aspiring rapper is not managed by momager Kris, who gets a 10% commission from her children’s ventures.

Alabama has been following in her father’s footsteps. However, she’s faced some criticism for “not knowing rap.” But despite her strained relationship with her mom Shanna, the actress defended her daughter’s “amazing” rap career.

“I think her rap career is amazing. My kids were raised on a tour bus from the time they were born,” Shanna told Page Six. “… She’s been in the studio with her father with the greatest musicians in the world.”

Alabama also addressed the haters on TikTok, saying: “I’m tired of people saying I don’t know anything about rap music, I wasn’t raised around rap music, I wasn’t anything.” She also shared photos of her as a kid hanging out on tour with Nicki Minaj, Lil Wayne, A$AP Ferg, and other artists.

Alabama Barker Is Close With Her Stepmom Kourtney Kardashian

Alabama Barker Featured Kourtney Kardashian In Her “Vogue” Music Video

Despite Alabama’s seemingly distant relationship with the rest of the Kardashian-Jenners, she’s very close to her stepmom. Kourtney was even featured in the young Barker’s stylish music video for her 2024 single, “Vogue.” Her dad, Travis also made a cameo in the project.

Alabama’s biological mom hasn’t been so pleased about her daughter’s closeness to Kourtney. Shanna even blamed Travis and Kourt’s relationship for ruining her relationship with her children. “My kids and I never had any bumps in the road until my ex-husband [Travis] started dating a Kardashian crew,” she told the Dumb Blonde podcast.

Shortly after Shanna’s statements, Alabama seemingly responded in a cryptic Instagram story. “Once you stop relying on other individuals your life will become so much better,” she shared. “Disappointment in others won’t exist.” It does seem like Alabama sees Kourtney more as her mom.

In April 2023, the influencer seemingly shaded her mom, Shanna on her birthday tribute to Kourt. “You’re the best stepmom I could ask for,” Alabama said. She also commended the Poosh founder for being “so caring and generous for others,” as well as being “a family person and such a hard working mom.”
