Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian go on road trip days after his hospital health scare

Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker went on a family road trip to celebrate the Fourth of July - days after he was admitted to hospital with ‘life-threatening’ pancreatitis.

The reality TV star, 43, took to Instagram on Monday to share a clip of her and new husband Travis cruising down the motorway in a vintage orange truck with her kids Penelope, nine, and seven-year-old Reign.

In the footage posted to her Instagram stories, Kourtney looked care free as the wind blew in her hair.

She held on to her black Prada hat before panning the camera to the backseat where her little ones are sitting.

Penelope is seen with her hoodie up, while Kourtney’s youngest, Reign, sported a cool mohawk hairstyle.

While Travis’ face isn’t seen in the clip, one of his black Converse trainers is shown as she filmed the pedals of the soft top car.

The Bruno Mars song Grenade was heard playing in the background as the family drove around.

In another clip shared with her 188 million Instagram followers, Kourtney revealed they ended up at the beach.

The exact location is unknown, but it looked deserted as she filmed the waves crashing along the coastline.

The family outing comes just days after Blink-182 drummer Travis was rushed to hospital.

The 46-year-old left fans worried after posting a cryptic tweet which said: “God save me”.

He later revealed he had pancreatitis and had to have emergency surgery as he was in so much pain he couldn’t walk.

Taking to Instagram to give fans a health update, Travis said: "I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great. But after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since.

"During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube. This resulted in severe life threatening pancreatitis."

He continued: "I am so very very grateful that with intensive treatment I am currently much better."

Wife Kourtney reposted Travis’ story saying she thanked God for “healing my husband” in what she described as a “scary and emotional week”.

She said: “On what a scary and emotional week it has been. Our health is everything and sometimes we take for granted how quickly it can change. Travis and I went in for routine endoscopy together and he ended up with severe, life-threatening pancreatitis.

She added: “I am so grateful to God for healing my husband, for all of your prayers for him and for us, for the overwhelming outpouring of love and support. I am so touched and appreciative.

“I am so, so thankful to our specialists, doctors and nurses at Cedars Sinai for taking such wonderful care of my husband and me during our stay.”
