Travis Barker had Kourtney Kardashian Barker and his daughter Alabama Barker at his bedside in new hospital photos, which he shared without explaining why he was there.
The 50-year-old Blink-182 drummer posted the images to Instagram Stories on Oct. 6th, according to PEOPLE. He wore a blue hospital gown and surgical cap, with a wristband and what appeared to be a blood-pressure monitor also visible.
Alabama, 20, sat beside her father in one selfie, pouting toward the camera while talking on her phone. “My baby girl came with me 🖤,” Barker wrote alongside the photograph.
Another image showed Kourtney, 47, leaning over to kiss her husband as he sat up in bed. “And my beautiful wife by my side 🖤,” he captioned that photo.

A later Instagram Story featured Barker and Kourtney’s son Rocky dressed as a ranger riding a dinosaur. The toddler walked around in the inflatable costume and a camouflage bucket hat while the Jurassic Park theme played. Rocky, the couple’s first child together, turns 3 on Nov. 1st.
His 2023 Finger Injury Disrupted Blink-182’s Tour
Barker previously detailed a torn finger ligament that forced Blink-182 to postpone its first Latin American tour dates. The band’s world tour had been scheduled to begin at the Imperial GNP festival in Tijuana, Mexico, on March 11th, 2023.
He first hurt the finger during rehearsals on Feb. 7th, dislocating it and tearing ligaments. Later that month, he shared another image showing the bruised knuckle and said he had injured it again.
In a March 3rd post after the operation, Barker said the surgery had been successful and thanked his doctor, Dr. Shin. He explained that repairing the ligament had become necessary to prevent another dislocation, according to PEOPLE.
“I couldn’t continue to play the drums without it,” he wrote, explaining the decision and telling fans he hoped to see them on tour soon.
Louder Than Fear Follows His Recovery and Return to Flying
Barker revisited the aftermath of his 2008 plane crash in South Carolina in this year’s documentary, Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear. Four people aboard the aircraft were killed.
In an August interview with the Associated Press, Barker said he spent six months in a burn center, underwent 30 surgeries and had burns over 70% of his body. The psychological effects of the crash also left him unable to fly for years.
The film follows him from 2017 through 2026, including the role his family played in helping him board planes again. Barker told AP that turbulence can still unsettle him and that he looks over at Kourtney’s calm reaction when it does. He also described their son’s enthusiasm for airplanes.
At the documentary’s June 13th world premiere at the Tribeca Festival, Barker told PEOPLE that Kourtney had watched the film repeatedly and his son Landon had contributed interviews. “They’ve all been super supportive, and I wouldn’t be here without all the love from them,” he said.
After showing Barker board a plane, the documentary closes with a collection of family photographs. Directed by Justin Krook and Michael Dwyer, Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear began streaming on Hulu on Aug. 13th. It is also available through Hulu on Disney+ for U.S. bundle subscribers and on Disney+ internationally.
