Travis Barker puts tour on hold, band says had to attend ‘important family issue’

Travis Barker had to take care of an important family issue, so Blink-182 h put a hold on several shows

Blink-182 confirmed the postponement of many shows when drummer Travis Barker hurried home due to a family issue. 
"Due to an urgent family matter, Travis has had to return home to the United States," the popular '90s rock band announced on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Friday. The band was travelling in Europe at the time and kept fans up to date on upcoming shows. 
Blink-182 announced  in a social media post that the shows for Glasgow, Belfast, and Dublin have been rescheduled, and as soon as it is available, the rescheduled concerts will be made public.
While it is unclear what the "urgent family matter" is, Barker and his celebrity wife, reality star Kourtney Kardashian, are expecting their first child. Barker also took to Instagram Stories hours before the band's announcement and shared  several photographs of a prayer room. 
The first photograph was taken outside the prayer chamber, with a sign reading "All welcome." He also shared a selfie of himself inside the chamber, which included a massive stained-glass window. His final image was a blue flag with the words "Together we pray." Kardashian and Barker's representatives did not immediately comment on the issue.
During a Blink-182 concert in June, the eldest Kardashian sister announced her pregnancy. The "Kardashians" star stunned her rocker husband by holding a giant banner that read, "Travis I'm Pregnant." She recreated an earlier Blink-182 music video for their "All the Smalls Thing” single, where a fan can be seen in the audience with the  sign that reads, "Travis I'm Pregnant."
Kardashian and Barker married in an extravagant ceremony in Italy on May 22, 2022. After an unauthorized wedding at a Las Vegas chapel in April, the couple formally married on May 15 in Santa Barbara, California. They had been dating for less than a year when the drummer proposed in October. 
Barker and his ex-wife Shanna Moakler have two children: son Landon and daughter Alabama. Kardashian and ex-husband Scott Disick have three children: Mason, Reign, and Penelope.
