E! News reported that drummer Travis Barker recently shared several photos to his Instagram Story of a prayer room. Whether or not the prayer room was located inside of a hospital is yet to be determined.
The nature of Barker’s family matter has yet to be determined. Barker and wife, Kourtney Kardashian, are expecting their first child together. Kardashian revealed the news during a Blink-182 show in June. She was in the crowd and held up a sign that read, “Travis: I’m Pregnant.” The sign was a nod to the band’s popular music video for their hit song “All The Small Things.”
