Shanna Moakler, the former wife of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, has recently found herself in the spotlight once more, this time for a seemingly pointed comment directed at Kourtney Kardashian. This follows an event on 11th August 2026, where her children were photographed alongside Barker and Kardashian at the premiere of “Louder Than Fear” in Los Angeles.

Moakler, who shares two children with Barker—20-year-old Alabama and 22-year-old Landon—was reportedly prompted by TikTok footage that captured the moment. According to a screenshot that circulated among fans, she raised eyebrows with the comment, “Where are her children?” This remark appeared as a veiled critique of Kardashian, who has three kids—Mason, Penelope, and Reign—with her ex-partner Scott Disick.


In the months since, social media users have reacted to Moakler’s comment with a mixture of amusement and intrigue. One commenter noted, “Man, Shanna deleted her comment! But I saw it,” while another declared their allegiance to her, stating, “Team Shanna ❤️ she’s funny af.” Many noted the undertones of Moakler’s comment, describing it as “pretty and petty AF,” showcasing the complex dynamics surrounding blended families.
This incident seems to reflect ongoing tensions related to co-parenting arrangements among the involved parties. In a previous interview from February 2024, Moakler discussed the absence of any co-parenting conversations between herself, Barker, and Kardashian. She expressed concerns over how their families interact, mentioning, “I felt at certain times it was kind of like, ‘Wow, if I had your kids, I wouldn’t be doing some of the s— you’re doing with my kids.’” Moakler’s candidness about her feelings suggests that she has not entirely reconciled with the dynamics brought on by Barker’s marriage to Kardashian.
Moakler acknowledged Barker’s marriage to Kardashian, noting that this makes Kardashian the stepmother to her children, Alabama and Landon, as well as the mother to Barker’s youngest child, born in November 2023. “It really has nothing to do with me,” she stated, as she tries to navigate the complexities of their blended family structure.
While Moakler has the option to hold onto past grievances, she also expressed a sense of relief in ensuring her children are treated well. She has openly discussed the impact of Kardashian’s celebrity lifestyle, explaining, “That’s all I can be grateful for… I mean, we can’t really avoid it. They’re everywhere.” This highlights the challenges of co-parenting within the public eye, where every interaction is scrutinised and often sensationalised.
Reflecting on her past, Moakler clarified her stance regarding labels like “deadbeat mum” that critics have pinned on her. She asserted that she has always had shared custody of her children with Barker and stressed that her feelings towards Kardashian were not rooted in anger, saying, “I think people think I was angry. But I’m not angry.” Her directness might sometimes be misconstrued as hostility, but she explains it as being unapologetically authentic.
As for the reputations of the Kardashian family, Moakler remains pragmatic. She acknowledged that their notoriety can be overwhelming, yet she prefers not to dwell on it excessively. “I think I get maybe frustrated,” she admitted, reflecting on how she reacts to the situations that arise.
At present, neither Kardashian nor Barker have publicly commented on Moakler’s recent TikTok remark or the ongoing discussions in the media. As the family dynamics continue to evolve, it remains clear that Shanna Moakler is committed to finding a constructive path forward for her family amid the challenges of public scrutiny and celebrity lifestyles.
