Overview
- At the Tribeca Film Festival premiere on Saturday, June 13, the couple disclosed for the first time that Kourtney suffered an early miscarriage during their 2021 pregnancy.
- Kourtney said she became pregnant about six months after they started dating, that the fetus was a girl they planned to name Tulip, and that a three-month appointment showed the baby no longer had a heartbeat.
- They pursued intensive fertility care, reporting five IVF attempts in an eight-month span before pausing treatment and later conceiving their son Rocky naturally, who was born in November 2023.
- Kourtney described the physical and mental toll of IVF and said egg freezing is not a guarantee, reporting that many eggs failed to survive thawing and none formed embryos in their experience.
- The couple’s disclosures are part of Travis Barker: Love Is Louder Than Fear, which premiered at Tribeca and will stream on Hulu on August 13, and may broaden public discussion of the emotional costs and limits of assisted reproduction.
