Kourtney Kardashian has opened up about how her friendship with long-time neighbour Travis Barker blossomed, revealing she was the one who pursued the drummer.
The reality TV star, 42, and the Blink-182 rocker, 46, got engaged in October last year when Travis popped the question with a romantic beach proposal.
While the pair have been friends and neighbours for years, they became close during the coronavirus pandemic and went public with their whirlwind relationship in January last year.
The couple, who are known for their very public displays of affection, tied the knot in a Las Vegas chapel earlier this month - albeit without a marriage license.
The POOSH founder has opened up about how the pair went from close friends to soon-to-be newlyweds in the first episode of The Kardashians, the family’s new Hulu series to follow up Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Speaking to the cameras about the origins of her fairytale romance, the mum-of-three admits she was 'definitely always attracted to Travis.'
She continued: “It was the right time in my life. I had taken a year to myself, but my closest best friends always said, ‘You have to hook up with Travis’.”
She had a decade on-and-off romance with Scott Disick with whom she shares children Penelope, Mason and Reign together, while Travis was married to Melissa Kennedy and then actress Shanna Moakler, with whom he shares kids Landon and Alabama.
Kourtney explained how she would “play house” with Travis before they got together, doing fun activities with their kids.
“Last year during the pandemic we were texting, so I just put it out there with flirtatious conversation.
“Finally, once I made it known, he asked me to watch a movie.” She added, giggling: “The whole movie he didn't make a move.”
A producer off-screen is then heard asking the reality star: “Who went in for the first kiss?” to which Kourtney said she did.
She added: “He was taking a long time. The movie was over, we started another movie. I was like, ‘I don't have time for this movie marathon’. So, I made the first move.”
The pair regularly post their public displays of affection for fans on social media and after reports circulated the pair had tied the knot in a quick-fire Las Vegas wedding, they eventually shared snaps from the Elvis-themed occasion.
The first episode of The Kardashians will be available to stream on Hulu from April 14.
