Kourtney Kardashian breaks down in tears over daughter amid co-parenting war with ex Scott Disick
Kourtney Kardashian took to Instagram on Tuesday to share an emotional post with her 218 million followers.
The 46-year-old reality television star — who recently enjoyed a trip to San Diego — uploaded a photo showing her in cheetah print pajamas with her hands over her eyes via the app's Stories feature.
She wrote, 'me crying bc my baby girl is done with 6th grade (she's taking pic of me),' adding tearful and crying laughing emojis.
The blurry, low-lit capture was taken by her only daughter, 12-year-old Penelope, whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Scott Disick.
In addition to the tween, Kardashian shares sons Mason, 15, and Reign, 10, with 42-year-old Scott.
And in November 2023 Kourtney welcomed son Rocky with husband Travis Barker, whom she wed in 2022.
Penelope is just over one month away from her 13th birthday — another moment that is sure to make her mom sentimental.
Last year the youngster celebrated the special occasion by going on a three-day getaway bash with her friends.
Taking to Instagram afterward, Kourtney posted photos from the soiree and wrote in the caption, '9 girls (and a baby), 2 moms (shoutout @natalie5382), 3 days of casual, perfectly slowed down beach days to celebrate my little lady.
'Toe rings, sound baths, night swims, painting bikini boxes, frozen bananas, mamma mia and lots of frank ocean forever.'
In April Kourtney celebrated her birthday with sunset beach snaps taken by Penelope, whose nickname is P.
The comments section was filled with birthday wishes for Kourtney — in addition to praise for Penelope's photography, with one person comparing her to renowned photographer Annie Leibovitz.
Kardashian and her ex are currently at odds over co-parenting their three children.
At the center of their disagreement is the kids' education, as the POOSH founder wants them homeschooled while the real estate mogul does not.
Kardashian recently appeared on sister Khloé Kardashian's Khloé in Wonder Land podcast, during which she discussed her approach to parenting.
She opened up about not conforming and claimed her children want to be homeschooled.
The comments infuriated Disick, 42, who found them 'irresponsible,' according to sources who spoke with DailyMail.com.
'Scott strongly disagrees with Kourtney's parenting style and finds her comments irresponsible,' one insider dished, adding that the New York native 'values hard work and sees school as essential and would never allow his kids to not attend.'
Kourtney started her bachelor's degree at Southern Methodist University in Texas before transferring and graduating from University of Arizona.
Scott, who 'feels Kourtney has changed,' will have his children homeschooled 'over his dead body.'
The father-of-three is also said to have issues with the influence of Kourtney's stepchildren.
Since tying the knot with Travis in 2022, Kourtney made drastic updates to her home to accommodate her and husband's blended family.
The Blink-182 drummer is dad to son Landon, 21, and daughter Alabama, 19, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 50. He is also stepdad to Moakler's daughter Atiana De La Hoya, 25.
On a season six episode of The Kardashians, Kourtney said that blending her and Travis' homes took 'a lot of adjusting.'
Kardashian had previously shared that she finally moved in with Barker in a June 2024 episode of her family's TV series.
'Travis and I have really been taking our time with figuring out where it makes sense for us to live together because the kids are all so comfortable in their spaces,' the reality star explained at the time. 'It feels like we kind of figured out a plan for now.'

Move over Britney Spears! Addison Rae channels Britney as she performs in her underwear in NYC
Addison Rae performed in her underwear at the Spotify release party at The Box in New York City on Thursday. The singer wore a nude-toned bra and underwear as she belted out her new tunes as backup dancers surrounded her on stage. Addison has served up a dreamy pop album flaunting her 'sensual and sexual' personality. The 24-year-old social media star released her long-awaited self-titled debut studio album featuring hit singles Diet Pepsi and Aquamarine. Speaking to Variety about the new tracks, she said: 'We definitely didn't reference anything making this album. It was always me trying to provoke a feeling from a song or from music. 'I'm a very sensual and sexual person. I'm very intimate with myself and my body, and everything kind of reflects that. Everything feels very personal.' Addison also shared that having her debut album produced entirely by a team of women was 'really special'. She added that working with Luka Kloser and Elvira on the record was 'beautiful and magical'. Addison said: 'I have something really special with these girls. It feels really beautiful and magical that it is just all females. 'I never set out for it to be that way, I think because it's not very common and you almost don't get that opportunity very much to work with just females in a room.' While she has been labelled the latest 'It girl' in pop, Addison admitted that she is wary of the praise. She added: 'It is obviously very complimentary. What does that even mean, really, to be the pop girl? Let's see if the songs get more popular, then they can call me a pop girl. This is my shot. I've got to go big.' Meanwhile, Addison - who dropped her debut single Obsessed in 2023 - has spoken about how TikTok was the perfect launchpad for her career. She told Zane Lowe on Apple Music 1: 'I think in the beginning, especially, and starting out, I always knew that I wanted to make music. I always knew I wanted to act. I think I just knew I wanted to perform. 'That was just something that was really obvious to me since I was a little girl. Addison continued: 'When TikTok happened, I was almost like, well, this seems like a really nice way to get myself to Los Angeles first, because I think in Louisiana there wasn't as many opportunities or like possibility, really, to pursue that profession necessarily, unless you just got really, really lucky.' Addison gained popularity with her dance videos on TikTok in 2019. And by March 2020, rapper The Kid Laroi caused a buzz when he released a song titled Addison Rae. She then made her film debut in 2021's He's All That and released Obsessed two years later.

Man mistakenly deported to El Salvador brought back to US to face charges
A man who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador has been returned to the United States to face criminal charges. Kilmar Abrego Garcia faces charges related to what US President Donald Trump's government said was a large human smuggling operation that brought immigrants into the country illegally. Advertisement His abrupt release from El Salvador is the latest twist in a saga that sparked a months-long standoff between Trump administration officials and the courts over a deportation that officials initially acknowledged was done in error but then continued to stand behind in apparent defiance of orders by judges to facilitate his return to the US. The development occurred after US officials presented El Salvador President Nayib Bukele with an arrest warrant for federal charges in Tennessee accusing Abrego Garcia of playing a key role in smuggling immigrants into the country for money. He is expected to be prosecuted in the US and, if convicted, will be returned to his home country of El Salvador at the conclusion of the case, officials said. 'This is what American justice looks like,' US attorney general Pam Bondi said in announcing Abrego Garcia's return and the unsealing of a grand jury indictment. The indictment of Kilmar Abrego Garcia that charges him with transporting people who were in the United States illegally (AP Photo/Jon Elswick) Abrego Garcia's lawyers called the case 'baseless'. Advertisement 'There's no way a jury is going to see the evidence and agree that this sheet metal worker is the leader of an international MS-13 smuggling conspiracy,' lawyer Simon Sandoval-Moshenberg said. Federal magistrate judge Barbara Holmes in Nashville, Tennessee, determined that Abrego Garcia will be held in custody until at least next Friday, when there will be an arraignment and detention hearing. Abrego Garcia appeared in court wearing a short-sleeved, white, buttoned shirt. When asked if he understood the charges, he told the judge through an interpreter: 'Yes. I understand.' Democrats and immigrant rights groups had pressed for Abrego Garcia's release, with several politicians – including senator Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, where Abrego Garcia had lived for years – even travelling to El Salvador to visit him. A federal judge had ordered him to be returned in April and the US Supreme Court rejected an emergency appeal by directing the government to work to bring him back. Advertisement But the news that Abrego Garcia, who had an immigration court order preventing his deportation to his native country over fears he would face persecution from local gangs, was being brought back for the purpose of prosecution was greeted with dismay by his lawyers. The case also prompted the resignation of a top supervisor in the US attorney's office in Nashville, according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a personnel matter. Ben Schrader, who was chief of the office's criminal division, did not explain the reason for his resignation but posted to social media around the time the indictment was being handed down, saying: 'It has been an incredible privilege to serve as a prosecutor with the Department of Justice, where the only job description I've ever known is to do the right thing, in the right way, for the right reasons.' He declined to comment when reached by The Associated Press on Friday. Advertisement
