<\/p>\nKourtney Kardashian’s rocker husband Travis Barker has revealed his shock health scare.<\/p>\n
The Blink-182 drummer, 50, made an appearance on the Big Bro with Kid Cudi podcast when he revealed he quit smoking after being diagnosed with precancer of the oesophagus.<\/p>\n
He said his doctor gave him a stern word over his smoking habit and it scared him into quitting.<\/p>\n
\u201cI only quit because I got diagnosed with precancer of the oesophagus. I loved blunts and I would smoke too much,\u201d he admitted during the podcast interview.<\/p>\n
\u201c[His doctor] He\u2019s like, \u2018This is your warning shot, Trav. Don\u2019t f*** around. You\u2019ve got to stop smoking,\u2019\u201d Barker added.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Barker was previously married to Melissa Kennedy and his more recent ex-wife, Shanna Moakler.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He married now-wife Kourtney Kardashian Barker, 47, in 2022, with an official wedding in California and another lavish wedding in Italy’s Portofino, in 2022.<\/p>\n
Kardashian Barker’s late father, attorney Robert Kardashian, died in 2003 at the age of 59 after a battle with oesophageal cancer.<\/p>\n
Causes of oesophageal cancer can include smoking tobacco, obesity, and diet.<\/p>\n
Just last month, Kourtney’s sister Kim Kardashian revealed on their family’s reality tv show that she had surgery and had irregularities removed from her oesophagus.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been feeling a little off lately. My throat is like killing me today,” she said on the show, shortly after being diagnosed with oesophagitis, or inflammation of the oesophagus.<\/p>\n
Doctors also reportedly found a hiatal hernia.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s something I always have to be aware of and watch and that in itself is scary and triggering,\u201d Kim says to camera about her health scare.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut it\u2019s also life. I\u2019m gonna be as proactive as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kourtney Kardashian’s rocker husband Travis Barker has revealed his shock health scare.
