Kourtney Kardashian has addressed claims that she and her husband, Travis Barker, are no longer living together.
The reality star discussed the rumors during the November 5 episode of The Kardashians, explaining that her publicist had contacted her after a magazine claimed the couple had separated.
Rather than issue a denial, Kardashian said she told her representative to let the story run.
She made clear that the claims had no basis, pointing to social media posts as the source of the speculation.

Kardashian, 47, recounted the exchange with her publicist on the show.
“She is like, ‘The magazine is saying that you and Travis don’t live together anymore and you are splitting up'. Any truth?” she recalled.
Her response was: “Tell them to print it. Just see what happens.”
Speaking to family friend Simon Huck, Kardashian said those circulating the story knew it was false. She claimed they had seen ‘a dumb TikTok of someone who makes up fabricated stories’.
Huck, 42, criticized what he described as ‘conspiracy theories’ about the Kardashian family and also raised the ‘insane’ AI-generated videos being shared online. Kardashian said: “And people believe it. It is so bizarre.”

In June 2023, Kardashian announced she was expecting a child with Barker during a Blink-182 concert. She held up a handwritten sign reading: “Travis, I’m pregnant.”
Three months later, Kardashian revealed she had undergone emergency fetal surgery before the birth of their son. In an Instagram post at the time, she thanked the doctors who had helped save the baby’s life and Barker, who had left tour to be with her in hospital.
