Last week, Blink-182 canceled a string of shows in the United Kingdom because Travis Barker had to leave for the United States to attend to an "urgent family matter."

Shortly after, he was spotted leaving the hospital with still-pregnant Kourtney. Rumors emerged that Kourtney might have given birth already prematurely.

Now, the reason for the "urgent" family matter of Travis Barker has been revealed.

Kourtney Kardashian Had Fetal Surgery

Last week, many on social media grew worried when Travis Barker rushed to the United States for an "urgent family matter."

Unbeknownst to many, it was indeed a very dire moment for the couple. Turns out, Kourtney Kardashian had fetal surgery. It was revealed in her latest Instagram post.

"I will be forever grateful to my incredible doctors for saving our baby's life. I am eternally grateful to my husband who rushed to my side from tour to be with me in the hospital and take care of me afterwards, my rock. And to my mom, thank you for holding my hand through this," she started her post.

Kourtney Kardashian posted a photo of her holding Travis Barker's hand.

"As someone who has had three really easy pregnancies in the past, I wasn't prepared for the fear of rushing into urgent fetal surgery," she went on to reveal. "I don't think anyone who hasn't been through a similar situation can begin to understand that feeling of fear."

According to the eldest Kardashian, she has a "whole new understanding and respect" for the mothers in the world who have to fight for their children while they are still pregnant.
