Kourtney Kardashian Barker and Travis Barker are standing by their decision not to show 23-month-old Rocky’s face publicly.
It’s a big departure from the early life of his siblings — as you might recall, Mason Disick’s birth was shown during an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Similarly, Brandon and Alabama Barker featured heavily in the 2005 television series Meet the Barkers.
Conversely, in her latest Halloween Instagram post, Kourtney shared a picture of Rocky — but with his face obscured by a pumpkin.
However, some suuuuper normal people questioned why Kourtney chose to cover Rocky’s face when paparazzi photos exist of the family online:
While Kourtney herself didn’t weigh in, she did “like” a comment shutting down a snarky claim that she was doing so for attention:
Travis addressed paparazzi photos of Rocky in 2024, telling the Wall Street Journal, “Unfortunately, someone finally got a photo of him, but we’d rather keep him out of the spotlight. If I could do everything different, I would have done the same thing with my [older] kids. I think it’s weird to grow up and you’re 15 or 12, and you’re like, ‘Mom, you posted this of me?’”
Back in 2022, Kourtney further said that she doesn’t “love to post [her] kids on social media” and that Mason, in particular, “doesn’t want any part of it.”
In short, we should focus on the important things…like their incredibly ornate Halloween decorations:
