Travis Barker's Daughter Praises 'Best Stepmom' Kourtney Kardashian Amid Family Drama
Kourtney Kardashian recently caught shade from Travis Barker's ex-wife, Shanna Moakler, over her role as a stepmom.
Alabama Barker is showing her support for Kourtney Kardashian in the midst of the recent drama involving her mom, Shanna Moakler.
Alabama, the 17-year-old daughter of exes Moakler and Travis Barker, spoke out on social media this week to call Kardashian the "best stepmom"—and one can't help but point out the funny timing considering her mom's recent tension with The Kardashians star.
For those who need a refresher on the recent tea, it all started when Kardashian and Barker released their new Hulu special, Til Death Do Us Part, which documented all of the intimate moments of the pair's romantic Italian wedding last summer.
But the special seemed to rub some viewers the wrong way, especially Moakler, who took offense to the speech her and Barker's son Landon Barker, 19, made before the ceremony, during which he said Kardashian "filled a void" in his life.
Moakler, 48, subsequently made headlines for liking a comment on a recent Instagram post, which insinuated that she deserved an apology for the way the special portrayed her. She also criticized the way Kardashian is handling the new stepmom role, writing in a reply comment, "she post more of my kids then [sic] her own lol."

But earlier in the week, Alabama seemed to be riding the Kardashian train as much as her brother, as she couldn't say enough positive things about the Poosh founder in a social media tribute.
Posting to her Instagram Story on Tuesday, April 18—which was the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum's birthday—Alabama called Kardashian "the best step mom I could ask for," as seen in screenshots obtained by Page Six. The message continued, "You are so caring and generous for others, you are such a family person and a hard working mom, even if you don't feel good or had a hard day you always put your family first."
"You have such a beautiful aura I would't want another step mom," she concluded.
Moakler has not publicly addressed Alabama's comments about Kardashian, though it appears that she isn't super pleased with how co-parenting is going amid Barker and Kardashian's marriage.
Moakler further hinted at the family drama when she liked another comment on her Instagram post from a user who said Landon's statement about Kardashian filling a "void" was among "other hurtful, passive-aggressive, unnecessary 'victim' statements directed toward Shanna" during the episode.
She also responded to another commenter who argued that Moakler should be "grateful" that her kids have another mother figure in their life, though she insisted, "I am not grateful," and also told the user that the situation is "much deeper than you could ever imagine."
