A clip from the KUWTK holiday special surfaced on Reddit. It shows Travis making gingerbread houses with Kourtney Kardashian’s family and her three kids. She shares Mason, 12, Penelope, 9, and Reign, 7, with her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick. The two were in each other’s orbit for many years until their relationship ended for good in 2016.

Travis is the father to son Landon, 18, and daughter Alabama, 16, which he shares with his ex-wife Shanna Moakler. In the clip, Travis explained to Kourtney Kardashian about his kids’ homeschool routine. She revealed in her confessional that “his kids and my kids are really good friends.” Many fans took to the Reddit thread to speculate about how long the two have been dating.
