Kourtney Kardashian is keeping the internet buzzing again. Just when fans thought the drama might be cooling down for the eldest Kardashian sister, she’s back in the headlines, this time for a missing wedding ring, fresh pregnancy rumors, and her husband Travis Barker’s eyebrow-raising social media activity.
On Wednesday, August 6, Kourtney Kardashian hopped onto her Instagram Story with what seemed like a simple self-care moment. Wearing a gold face mask and holding a mug, Kourtney looked totally unbothered… except for one tiny detail. Her wedding ring was nowhere to be seen. In fact, instead of flashing her diamond, she cheekily covered the spot with a heart emoji. It didn’t take long for fans to notice, and the speculation machine went into overdrive, per Star Magazine.
However, the ring mystery isn’t the only thing fueling gossip. Just days earlier, Kourtney was spotted at a family photoshoot with her lower body positioned behind her sisters. While some viewers took this as a clue that she might be hiding a baby bump, others were quick to defend her. One fan on social media declared, “Kourtney is for sure pregnant,” while another asked bluntly, “Is Kourtney pregnant lol why is she hiding?” A third chimed in with a more sympathetic take, suggesting she might simply be “sick of comments on her body.”
Kourtney Kardashian Ditches Wedding Ring In Latest Photo
If this all sounds familiar, it’s because pregnancy rumors are nothing new for Kourtney. Just two weeks ago, she had to shut them down again after sharing photos from a dreamy trip to Italy, including a swimsuit selfie. One follower claimed they could “tell from the bikini reflection photo” that she was pregnant. Never one to shy away from clapping back, Kourtney replied, “Or breastfeeding, eating gelato, focaccia, pasta, not working out and living my best damn life baby!”
It’s not lost on fans that Kourtney and Travis, who tied the knot in March 2022, already share a 21-month-old son, Rocky. Kourtney also has three kids with ex Scott Disick: Mason, 15, Penelope, 12, and Reign, 10. Between parenting, running her wellness brand Lemme, and filming The Kardashians, she’s got plenty on her plate, whether or not there’s another baby on the way.
And then, there’s the Travis situation. While Kourtney’s sparking pregnancy chatter, her rocker husband is catching heat for reportedly liking suggestive photos of his son Landon Barker’s girlfriend online. The move has raised eyebrows and more than a few side-eyes from fans who find the whole thing, well, awkward.
Travis Barker Catches Heat For ‘Creepy’ Online Behavior
“That’s not creepy at all…” one person commented. “Ew gross,” another said. “Have you seen the stuff he posts? This man has no shame,” a third person stated.
Is the missing ring just a casual at-home choice, or a sign of tension between the couple? Is she cleverly trolling the internet with strategic photo angles, or actually hiding early pregnancy changes? And is Travis’s online behavior just social media oversharing gone wrong, or something deeper?
If there’s one thing to know for sure, it’s that Kourtney Kardashian isn’t afraid to play with public perception. Whether she’s sipping coffee behind a face mask, standing just so in a family pic, or delivering a perfectly timed clapback, she’s a master at keeping fans talking. And with the Barker-Kardashian crew, the headlines never seem to slow down.
