Travis Barker posted pictures from the prayer room at Glasgow Airport to his Instagram feed after rushing home from the start of a tour with Blink-182.

Barker had been due to perform with his band Blink-182 at the start of their UK tour, starting the tour on 1 September with a date in Glasgow, but the drummer had to rush back home to the USA to attend to an 'urgent family matter'.

The tour has now been postponed. The next date will be in Dublin on 5 September.

The precise nature of the family matter is not clear, but it has come as Barker's partner Kourtney Kardashian is pregnant with the couple's first child together, due between October and December.

Barker also posted images to his Instagram story of the prayer room at Glasgow Airport. He posted three images to his social media page.

These included the entrance to the prayer room, a picture of a sign that said 'together we pray', and of a stained glass window.

An announcement from the band confirming the postponement of the tour said: "Due to an urgent family matter, Travis has had to return home to the States. The Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin shows are being postponed. More information in regards to his return to Europe and rescheduled dates will be provided as soon as available."

Barker's ex wife Shanna Moakler recently broke the silence after the shock announcement.

In a video obtained by TMZ, she said: "A lot of people are reaching out to me. I don't know what's going on, I just know that our kids are safe and sound.

She added: "Obviously that's important to me, whenever they have to cancel shows it's a really big deal. I'm praying that his immediate family, the baby and Kourtney are safe and okay and I'll be sending my prayers and well wishes."

Barker had last been seen in public when he went for a meal out with friends in Calabasas last week. Before the meal he had gone for a walk with partner Kourtney Kardashian.

Kardashian has not posted anything on social media since the confirmation that Barker would be returning to the USA.

She is currently pregnant with the couple's first child together. Barker has two children with his ex-wife Moakler. Kourtney has three children with her ex-husband Scott Disick, they are Mason, aged 13, Penelope, aged 10, and Reign, aged 8.
