Kourtney Kardashian Clears Pregnancy Rumors Again: What She Said and Why Fans Keep Asking

Jordan Collins here. Okay, I’ll explain, but try to keep up. Kourtney Kardashian has once again shut down speculation that she is expecting a fifth child after social media users latched onto family photos from a recent Idaho trip.

Let’s recap the facts you probably missed while scrolling: on August 8 Kourtney posted a photo dump from a family getaway to Idaho, and a follower commented, “Rumors have it that you’re pregnant Kourtney.” Rather than start a feud or issue a formal statement, Kourtney responded casually and plainly: “Eating pancakes, and jumping off cliffs.” That cheeky reply, posted under the Instagram carousel, is the latest public denial from the 46-year-old reality star and Poosh founder.

This isn’t some brand-new narrative. Just weeks earlier, after sharing a swimsuit snap from Italy, Kourtney addressed identical speculation. On July 17 she wrote in an Instagram caption that she wasn’t expecting another baby and then doubled down in a follow-up comment where she spelled out how she’s living postpartum: “breastfeeding, eating gelato, focaccia, pasta, not working out and living my best damn life baby.” That quote is a direct, public refusal to play along with pregnancy gossip and a confirmation that what you’re seeing is life, not news.

If you need context: Kourtney and husband Travis Barker share son Rocky Thirteen Barker, who is 20 months old. Kourtney is also mom to Mason (15), Penelope (13), and Reign (10) with ex Scott Disick, and she is stepmother to Travis’s children Landon, Alabama, and Atiana. Given this blended family dynamic and Kourtney’s frequent public appearances, fans are primed to speculate about every change in outfit, pose, or vacation snap. So yes, the rumor mill turns faster than you can tap “like.”

Beyond the social media clapbacks, Kourtney has been vocal about postpartum body acceptance, which partly explains why every body-related comment escalates into a pregnancy rumour. On her lifestyle site Poosh she wrote about listening to your body, rejecting unrealistic postpartum standards, and only getting back into shape when you’re ready. In an April Instagram Story she addressed new mothers directly, encouraging kindness toward their bodies during pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and breastfeeding. Those are not vague feel-good quotes; they’re her stated stance and likely the reason she answers speculation with humor rather than hostility.

Why does this keep happening? Two reasons. One, Kourtney is extremely visible across social posts, fashion outings, and family events, fueling amateur sleuthing. Two, modern fandoms love a narrative: pregnancy is a headline that keeps attention and engagement high. So whether it’s a swimsuit snap in Italy or a family carousel from Idaho, some followers will always connect the dots that aren’t there.

Let’s be clear: Kourtney has publicly and repeatedly denied pregnancy rumors through Instagram comments and Poosh writing, and she’s made no official announcement to contradict those denials. She is enjoying postpartum life, caring for toddler Rocky, and prioritizing body acceptance and self-care. If you’re searching for evidence to the contrary, you’re looking in the wrong place.

Want to keep up with this story? Watch her official channels: Instagram and Poosh, where she posts updates and personal essays. Fans will speculate until she says otherwise, so unless Kourtney announces a pregnancy on her own terms, take every rumor with a scoop of skepticism and a side of salt.

Well, now you finally understand.
