Kourtney Kardashian -

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's pregnancy reveal occurred at a Blink-182 concert, and referenced the band's iconic song, 'All the Small Things.' The reality TV star stole the show on June 16, 2023, by announcing she and Barker were expecting their first child by holding up a sign that read, "TRAVIS I'M PREGNANT," which is identical to a sign that an audience member in his 1999 music video holds up. The drummer jumped off stage and kissed his wife as the Los Angeles audience cheered for the happy couple who tied the knot in 2022. Barker has two children with his first wife, Shanna Moakler, whom he divorced in 2008: Landon and Alabama. Meanwhile, Kardashian and ex Scott Disick have three kids: Mason, Penelope, and Reign. They welcomed their new baby, Rocky, in November 2023.

Their first pregnancy reveal in 2018 was an impersonal announcement via royal press secretary.

Especially iconic was the choice of photographer, their longtime friend Misan Harriman, who also made history as the first black male photographer to shoot the cover of British Vogue. In sharing the happy news, the couple elevated Harriman’s profile and strengthened their intention to advocate for racial justice outside of the British royal family. Fun fact: they chose Valentine’s Day, because it's the same day Prince Charles and Princess Diana announced they were expecting Harry back in 1984.
