Leah Barrs, a former nanny for Kourtney Kardashian and ex-partner Scott Disick, has publicly denied rumors that she had a sexual relationship with Travis Barker. Barrs, who cared for the couple's three children—Mason, Penelope, and Reign—from 2019 to 2022, made the statements during an appearance on the "Boyfriend Material" podcast with host Harry Jowsey.
Barrs clarified that while she did engage in a sexual encounter with a single father she worked for previously, it was not Barker. She explained that this incident occurred when she was 22 and had recently moved to Los Angeles, long before Kardashian and Barker, who welcomed son Rocky in 2023, began their relationship. This past encounter was initially revealed on the reality series "Million Dollar Nannies," leading to Barrs being fired by the family after the information spread.
Describing the incident further on the podcast, Barrs stated she considered the father her "friend" and viewed the encounter as an "insignificant" event that was "blown out of proportion." She recalled, "I did him a favor one night, and he came back from his event. The daughter was asleep. Technically, I’m clocked out. He is my friend. I’ve always thought he was hot. We hook up."
Barrs expressed that she was distraught after losing her nannying job, admitting on the podcast, "I was balling when I lost my babysitting job. I cried episodes one through eight." She acknowledged that her own indiscretion led to her termination, stating, "It was my own fault. I should’ve just closed my mouth."
In a June interview with People, Barrs stated that she regretted crossing professional lines by sleeping with the father, even though he was reportedly single at the time. She told The New York Post that she was connected with Kardashian through an LA pastor, describing the opportunity to work for the family as "fate."
Barrs reflected on her time nannying for Kardashian's children, noting that the experience was "beyond nannying" and taught her valuable lessons about self-improvement, networking, and becoming "the best version of myself."
