The drama between Kourtney and Alabama escalated in April, with The Blast covering a source's claims about their relationship. They alleged the Kardashian clan was on their oldest's neck to extinguish the fire after Bhad Bhabie dragged their family into her feud with Travis's daughter.

Bhad Bhabie dropped various scathing allegations after the famous family, including claims of Travis having a fling with Kourtney's younger sister, Kim Kardashian. The rapper's mother, Barbara Bregoli, also threw shots at them, claiming she would air the reality TV clan's dirty laundry.
