Kourtney Kardashian was eager to announce romance with Travis Barker

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker recently transformed their long-term friendship into a happy fairytale.

The Poosh founder has been friends with Blink-182 drummer for an extensive amount of time until recently romance sparked between the two. 

An insider tells that Barker has dotted on Kourtney for a while now, but the reality star has only recently opened herself to the possibility of dating her friend.

According to a close friend of the couple, they have been “dating for about a month or two” but decided to keep their romance out of the limelight.
