Did Shanna Moakler Just React To Travis Barker's Engagement To Kourtney Kardashian?

The news of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker's engagement wasn't that much of a surprise, as the couple has been publicly cozy for months since they started dating in December 2020. But Barker's October 17 proposal was still met with joy from fans, family, and friends alike. Well — except maybe for Barker's ex-wife, Shanna Moakler.

When Kardashian posted the romantic pictures of Barker's proposal on her Instagram account, her sisters Kim and Khloé responded with strings of heart emojis. Mom Kris Jenner sent smiling heart-eye faces. "Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Melissa Gorga sighed, "Ahhh! kourt will walk down the aisle." Influencer Addison Rae, who is close friends with the reality star, wrote "IM SCREAMING" in all-caps. Clearly, celebrities are enthralled with the couple's engagement.

But it seems that there may be a bit of shade being thrown amidst the congratulations. Read on to find out how exactly Moakler reacted on social media.

Shanna Moakler, who was married to Travis Barker for four years and shares three kids with him, posted two statements on her Instagram stories shortly after the engagement news came out, according to Us Weekly. One said, "Temporarily closed for spiritual renovations," and the other was a quote from Tupac: "Before you ask why someone hates you, ask yourself why you give a f***."

The model and former Miss USA split from the Blink-182 rocker back in 2008, and in May 2021, she told People that she had no problem with his dating the reality star. "I'm really, genuinely happy for him," she said at the time. "As long as she's good to my children, that's truly all I really care about." Still, that hasn't stopped Moakler from shading the couple in various ways, like the time she responded to Barker's video of himself getting a tattoo while Kardashian watched. "my ex put a skull tattoo over our initials on his hand while his new girl lovingly looked on," she wrote, per Perez Hilton. "That was done with purpose and intent along with posts to try to insult me."

Additionally, two of Barker and Moakler's children, Landon and Alabama, claimed on Instagram that Moakler is an absentee mother (which she later denied to People). The Barker children still seem to be siding with their father as of this writing. Alabama responded to Kardashian's engagement announcement with a simple message showing her support. "Love u guys!" she wrote.
