Travis Barker Honors Son Rocky on His Second Birthday
Published: Nov. 1 — Celebrity · Family
Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian celebrated a special moment over the Halloween weekend: their youngest son, Rocky Thirteen, turned two.
On Saturday, Nov. 1, Barker posted a tender Instagram tribute featuring a photo of Rocky in a backwards cap and a black jersey emblazoned with the number 13. Barker wrote, “Happy Birthday my Rocky 13 🖤. You’re such a special soul, and you make every day brighter. I love you.”
He added a playful nod to the things Rocky might love as he grows: “No one’s cooler. Guitars, drums, pirates, boom boom pow and Angus Young forever 🎸🥁🏴☠️🥊.” The post attracted thousands of reactions and birthday wishes, including a joyful comment from Khloé Kardashian: “Happy birthday to the cutest!!!!! Rocky!!!!!!! 🩵🩵🩵.”
Born in November 2023, Rocky is the first child the couple has together. Kardashian and Barker publicly revealed their son in December 2023 with a simple joint Instagram announcement: “ROCKY 🖤.”
Last year, Rocky received an especially memorable gift — a handwritten birthday letter from actor Sylvester Stallone, arranged by Kris Jenner. Barker called it “one of the most special birthday gifts” when he shared a photo of Stallone’s note on Instagram Stories. Stallone’s message offered encouragement about perseverance and the importance of family; as he wrote in part, “You must never give up on your dreams, never!”
Although Barker frequently mentions Rocky in interviews and has even designed tiny sneakers for him, Kardashian and Barker have generally kept their youngest child’s online presence limited. Kardashian has chosen not to show Rocky’s full face on social media, sometimes covering it with Halloween-themed emojis — a decision that prompted criticism but also drew supportive responses that she acknowledged with a like.
Together the couple are part of a blended family of seven children:
- Kourtney Kardashian’s children with Scott Disick: Mason (15), Penelope (13), and Reign (10).
- Travis Barker’s children: Landon (22) and Alabama (19).
- Stepdaughter: Atiana De La Hoya (26).
The family’s birthday celebrations and thoughtful tributes underscore how Barker and Kardashian balance public life with protecting the privacy of their youngest son.
