Travis told Us Weekly that he met Kim in Amsterdam when she was the "assistant" of Paris Hilton – who he was dating at the time.

"How could you not stare at Kim?" the musician said.

"I enjoyed hanging out with Paris, but I love curvy girls. Kim was eye candy… I couldn't keep my eyes off Kim."

Travis went on to say that things never went past "flirtatious" and that he was "in no way disrespectful to Paris".


It was reported earlier this week that Kourtney, 41, and Travis, 45, are now officially dating.

The pair spent the weekend together in Palm Springs where they both shared beautiful poolside views to their social media,

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star and her new beau relaxed at her mom Kris Jenner's home in the tropical California city.

An insider told People: "They're in Palm Springs together. They've been dating for about a month or two."


The source added: "They've been friends for a long time but it's turned romantic. Travis has liked her for a while."

They claimed that Kourtney's friends and family approve of the new romance as they "really like" Travis.

Speculation of their relationship came earlier this month when the legendary drummer left a rose emoji comment on the Poosh founder's sexy Instagram photo.

Kourtney and Travis have been very close for some time, speaking almost every day, but have claimed to keep things friendly until now.


The rock star also lives in Calabasas California, where the Kardashians famously thrive, and he has even made guest appearances on KUWTK over the years.

In March of 2019, Travis denied any sort of love interest rumors between the pair, telling People: "Kourtney's like a dear friend. That's it.

"I mean, I love her to death. I love her family to death. But yeah, just friends."

Over the Christmas holiday, the reality star splurged on a $795 Prada bag for Travis' daughter Alabama, which was reportedly the "same bag Kourt bought Khloe for Christmas".

Kourtney and her ex Scott Disick broke up in 2015, after sharing twelve years and three children together, Mason, 11, Reign, six, and Penelope, eight.

Travis was married to Playboy model Shanna Moakler from 2004-2008, and the two have one son Landon, 17, and one daughter Alabama, 15.
