Alabama Barker has a close relationship with her stepmom, Kourtney Kardashian (some would argue that their relationship is stronger than the bond she shares with her biological mom, Shanna Moakler). However, the teen recently posed alongside Kardashian for a new post on Instagram, and fans are divided: some feel they both look gorgeous, others are freaking out, comparing their appearances to something from the horror series American Horror Story.
The comparison is unfair because both Barker and Kardashian look stunning, and their makeup is on point. But the negativity could be because of the leather outfits the two women are rocking, particularly Barker’s attire because if her face were fully covered, her outfit would closely resemble a gimp suit (and no one can forget that terrifying scene including Rubber Man in the first season). Unsurprisingly, fans have a lot to say, and the comment section is filled with reactions. “What in the AHS is this,” a fan wrote. “Literally what is she wearingg,” another shared
Fans React To Alabama Barker’s New Photo With Kourtney Kardashian
Other reactions include, “Daaaang, you got to use that much filter,” “Gen z makeup is untouchable,” and “y u look like dat.” The reactions are mixed, as you can tell from the few highlighted comments. Barker has been known to push fashion boundaries, and she is never one to shy away from making a statement. Still, the timing of her post (which she shared with her 2 million followers on Instagram) suggests that she could have been wearing this leather look for a Halloween party.
There have also been comments about Alabama not posing for a picture with her own mama, and the answer to that question is complicated: the reality TV star appears to have a strained relationship with Shanna Moakler.
Moakler previously commented on this in an interview with Bunnie XO for the Dumb Blonde podcast, saying, “When Travis got with Kourtney, there was some parental alienation going on there, where Travis — even when we weren’t together — always wanted to be the ‘super dad,’” she said. “‘I’m the best parent. I’m the this and that,’ and I’m like ‘Bro, you win.’ Like you’re the winner here. You have all the money and you have all this. You’re the winner.”
Only time will tell if Alabama and her mom will mend their relationship, but right now, she appears to be very content with her stepmom.
