Kourtney Kardashian has reportedly called in ‘crisis PR’ to mend the media mess caused by stepdaughter Alabama Barker’s, feud with rapper Bhad Bhabie
Kourtney Kardashian has reportedly ‘called in crisis PR’ over her stepdaughter, Alabama Barker’s, public feud. Alabama has been clashing with rapper Bhad Bhabie, real name Danielle Bregoli, for the past few months with their most recent and most explosive feud being a diss track from Bhabie, 22, taking aim at Alabama, 19.
Bhabie also referenced Kourtney, suggesting that her husband Travis Barker was only with her because he was ‘rejected’ by Kim Kardashian. “Kourtney is at her wit’s end with Alabama,” a source said recently. “She is a loose cannon and refuses to play by the family’s request to be drama-free. Despite pleas to stay out of trouble, Alabama is doing the exact opposite. Kourtney doesn’t raise her children this way.”

The insider went on to claim to the Daily Mail that Kourtney has set her sights on a crisis PR to mend the media mess. The source said: “Kourtney and Travis are not clashing over what to do with Alabama because they share the same beliefs about her actions.
“They’re just frustrated because there is nothing they can do. She doesn’t blame Travis. She believes Alabama needs crisis PR, but she’s an adult, making her own choices, and Kourtney can only sit back and let it play out.”
Alabama and and Bhabie’s feud began back in December when Bhabie, who was in a relationship with rapper Le Vaughn, took to social media to claim Alabama ‘took her man’. Bhabie had been dating Le Vaughn for five years, from 2020 to 2025. The pair even share a daughter together, Kali Love, who was born in March 2024.
In the Instagram Story Bhabie said: “@alabamaluellabarker took my man,” before announcing that she’s now single. When the post hit The Shade Room, Alabama commented: “#ew.” This followed a series of back and forth social media swipes where the pair threw subtle digs at each other.
In February, Bhabie dropped a scathing diss track titled Ms. Whitman, taking aim at Alabama. And Bhabie didn’t hold back, dragging the Kardashians and Travis into the mix. The song’s title, Ms. Whitman, references the character Alabama Whitman from the 1993 film True Romance – the namesake of Alabama herself.
The intro sampled Kim Kardashian’s ex-husband, Kanye West’s Carnival, and even stirs up the rumour that Kourtney started dating Travis after Kim rejected him. The record features lyrics including: “Why this b***h obsessed with me?” and “Your stepmom burnt out, why she took her sister’s second-hand?,” referencing Travis previously stating he had a crush on Kim.
This comes after years of speculation that suggested that Travis was interested in Kim several years before his marriage to Kourtney. Fans claimed that Travis was rejected’ by Kim, before he set his sights on Kourtney.
The sisters have fought constantly over the last few years, and their relationship hit an all-time low in 2023 when Kim told her older sister that she had started a text group called Not Kourtney, in which her family and friends gossip about her behaviour behind her back.
A devastated Kourtney – who is pregnant with her and Travis’ first child – broke down, and told Kim she “hated” her, leaving their bond almost completely destroyed.
However, super sleuth fans have speculated a possible reason as to why Kim and Kourtney have a fractured relationship and have been unable to resolve their differences.
Resurfaced quotes from the Blink-182 drummer’s 2015 memoir Can I Say: Living Large, Cheating Death, and Drums, Drums, Drums, the rocker recalled meeting Kim back in 2006, and confessed he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
Back then, Travis was dating heiress Paris Hilton, and Kim – who was dating Ray J at the time – was working as her wardrobe assistant. But during a trip to Amsterdam, Travis admitted he was attracted to Kim, who he called “f***ing hot”.
The Mirror has contacted Kourtney’s representatives for comment.
