Blink-182 Drummer Travis Barker Opens Up About Fatherhood and Keeping His Youngest Son Out of the Spotlight

Travis Barker, Blink-182

Travis Barker, drummer for Blink-182, has reflected on his experiences as a father and his decision to keep his youngest son, Rocky, out of the public eye. In a recent interview, Barker expressed his desire to give Rocky a more private upbringing, unlike his older children, who appeared on the reality show "Meet the Barkers" when they were younger.

Barker shares two children, Alabama and Landon, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, and has been open about the challenges of co-parenting. However, with his new son Rocky, born to him and partner Kourtney Kardashian, Barker is taking a different approach.

"I wish I could've done the same thing with my older kids," Barker said, referring to keeping them out of the spotlight. Despite his best efforts, a photo of Rocky was recently leaked without his permission.

Barker has been vocal about the importance of family and has stated that being a father is his greatest accomplishment. With a combined net worth estimated to be over $1.46 billion, Barker's family life is certainly in the public eye, but he's determined to keep Rocky out of the spotlight for as long as possible.
