While The Kardashians' Kourtney Kardashian wasn't on great terms with her ex Scott Disick when she got engaged to Travis Barker, the co-parents have found their way back to a good place. Scott has never had an easy ride in life without Kourtney. She cut Scott off after numerous breakups and reconciliations along with the corresponding cheating scandals. Scott felt distraught and alienated at first but found his rhythm on his own. When Scott was dating Sophia Richie and Kourtney was wrapping up her relationship with Younes Bendjima, the parents were in a good place. Eventually, Scott and Sophia went separate ways, as did Younes and Kourtney, but the good vibes carried on.
When they were both single, Scott touted the idea of a romantic reunion. Scott may have gotten the family on board, but he didn't quite lure a very anxious Kourtney. She made clear repeatedly that there were benchmarks Scott was well aware he hadn't met for her to consider getting back together. After years of off-and-on chaos and disappearing acts, it seemed likely total sobriety was one of those benchmarks. The co-parents determined a new shot at love wasn't in the cards, and Scott moved on to Amelia Hamlin and Kourtney to Travis Barker, but Kourtney wasn't on board with Scott's reaction. Kourtney may have taken Scott's teenage lovers in stride, but Scott didn't do as well with Travis. Scott's tantrums about Travis escalated so far that he dared to reach out to Younes to complain about the fiancé's endless public displays of affection.
With Scott so irked by Kourtney's relationship and engagement, she determined she wouldn't invite him to her wedding to Travis, but according to Hollywood Life, she recently had a change of heart. Scott has shown that he's come to terms with the new dynamics and has gone above and beyond to be with his kids. Having Scott be present with their family was always a top priority for Kourtney. As he's matured and mellowed toward their blended family dynamics, Kourtney decided it should be up to Scott whether or not he attends the wedding.
As co-parents who will always be good friends and family, it's hard to imagine Kourtney moving on without Scott involved in some capacity. Fans and Scott were understandably shocked by the engagement. For viewers who have never seen what Kourtney's relationship with Travis looks like up close, it's also hard to imagine her in such a serious dynamic with someone new. The jarring changing of the times makes it easy to empathize with Scott's hesitation to accept reality. However, both party's ability to prioritize the other's happiness makes for the best scenario. Time will tell how Scott reacts to Kravis potentially getting pregnant.
Despite its tumultuous nature, the world will forever remember Kourtney and Scott's romance. The reality of their platonic partnership is significantly healthier than their romantic one. With this in mind, Scott might be figuring out how to accept the present moment and be a supportive baby daddy. If fans are lucky, The Kardashians will shed more light on how these shifts in perspective unfolded exactly.
