The Blink-182 drummer went down on his knees at a beachside hotel in Montecito, California. Kourtney, who’s now 42, will walk down the aisle for the first time with Travis, who’s 45. While Kourtney has already posted the special engagement on her Instagram with the caption “forever@travisbarker,” there were also photos of the lovebirds hugging each other during that special moment.

According to a source, the proposal happened at exactly 6:30 pm, just as the sun was setting, and Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson were there for the engagement.
While it seems like family and some close friends were there to witness, Travis went all out with a heart-shaped floral arrangement of roses at the shoreline.
One of the eyewitnesses shared, “Kourtney looked very surprised to see Khloe and Tristan there. Travis escorted Kourtney down to the beach, where he heard red and white florals set up in the shape of a heart. It looked very romantic. I could see Kourtney smiling from ear to ear and, looking surprised, putting her hand over her mouth. The family cheered for them and went back into the hotel.”
#KRAVIS FOREVER ❤️😭
