Yet another clip from Hulu’s The Kardashians is garnering a lot of negative attention on social media – and this time, it’s because of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker‘s PDA!
In an episode of the iconic reality TV show which aired in the summer, Kourtney, 45, and Travis, 48, who welcomed their son Rocky in November 2023, are once again seen packing on the PDA, with Kourtney’s nine-year-old son Reign making it very obvious that he is uncomfortable with it.

Kourtney Kardashian’s Son Reign Dick Is Visibly Uncomfortable With His Mom And Travis Barker’s PDA
The episode sees the Poosh founder and the Blink 182 drummer being affectionate with each other in front of Reign, who Kourtney shares with ex Scott Disick, which then causes him to beg: “Mom, stop making out with Travis, bro!” He then says: “Didn’t you just have a baby? Don’t get another one this quick!”
Still unimpressed with the PDA, Reign then asks the drummer, “Are you giving her a hickey now?” to which he replies, “No.” Kourtney chimes in to clarify: “It’s a gentle kiss on my neck.”
In the confessional, the Lemme founder seems to defend the PDA, and says: “I think it’s a beautiful thing to see parents, especially once they’ve had a new baby, be affectionate and loving.” Kourtney, who also shares son Mason, 14, and daughter Penelope, 12, with Disick, added: “There’s nothing wrong with that.” But as expected, not everyone on the internet agreed.
Reddit Comments
A Reddit thread which began on November 1st was dedicated to discussing this scene, and was titled: "She is traumatizing her kids." And a lot of people agreed in the comment section!
"There's a difference between being affectionate and making out. They are gross," slammed one fan, as a second replied: "And she doesn't care at all." "Not a hickey but gentle kiss on your neck?! Girl shut up. Shouldn't even be doing all that around kids to have to explain yourself. Cause clearly too much is happening," thought a third. "So trashy. Her kids are begging her to stop, and she continues doing it," observed a fourth.
This isn't the first time the married couple have caused a stir with their inappropriate behavior, as they were slammed last month for putting up "disgusting" Halloween decorations, including two inflatable skeletons in a very compromising, shall we say, position.
"'Gentle kissing on the neck' is such a weird thing to say to a [expletive] child whose age is a single digit," wrote a fifth fan on the Reddit thread, as a sixth exclaimed: "Your child asked you to stop and you laugh and continue! Gross! Clearly it's more about the shock factor and being inappropriate than caring about your child's feelings!"
"Feel so bad for him, he's so over it and he's RIGHT," wrote another fan who was very clearly on Reign's side. "They aren't just affectionate. They're gross. Get a room," criticized another, as another unimpressed fan said: "They are so nasty! Affection is one thing but this is beyond inappropriate. They are rich and can afford nannies for their kids. Hire a nanny and do that [expletive] behind closed doors."
