Travis Barker hospitalized in LA for possible pancreatitis

CBS News Los Angeles

Musician and husband of Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, was hospitalized in Los Angeles Tuesday with his teenage daughter taking to social media asking people to "send your prayers."

TMZ is reporting Barker suffered pancreatitis, triggered after a recent colonoscopy. 

On Tuesday morning, Barker tweeted simply, "God save me," although it was unclear if the post was related to his medical condition. "God Save Me" is also the title of a song on which Barker and Machine Gun Kelly recently collaborated.

Barker has a history of health issues, including hospitalization for blood clots. He survived a plane crash that killed two people in 2008. Barker suffered third-degree burns on 65% of his body and was hospitalized for three months. He had 26 surgeries, according to media reports.

Late Tuesday afternoon, his 16-year-old daughter, Alabama Luella Barker, posted a note on Instagram saying, "Please send your prayers." She later posted a photo on TikTok, showing her holding her father's hand as he sat in a hospital bed, with the caption, "Please say a prayer." The post was later deleted.

The Blink-182 drummer and Kardashian were married last month in Portofino, Italy.

Barker also has an 18-year-old son, Landon Asher Barker.

TMZ reported that the 46-year-old Barker, accompanied by his new wife showed up at West Hills Hospital Tuesday morning, but he was then taken by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Kardashian followed the ambulance to Cedars-Sinai, TMZ reported.
