It looks like TRAVIS BARKER is back to spanking his monkey again as him and the sexy PLAYBOY MODEL / Actress SHANNA MOAKLER go for another attempt at separation.
Travis Barker, drummer for the bands Blink-182 and +44, and formerly of The Transplants and The Aquabats, proposed to
SHANNA MOAKLER in the elevator entrance to the Haunted Mansion ride at Disneyland. Barker paid off one of the ride operators so that the couple could have the space to themselves for a few minutes and then got down on one knee and proposed.
SHANNA MOAKLER said "yes," but she later surprised Barker with her own down-on-one-knee proposal and engagement ring for him. On October 30, 2004, they were married and today have two children together: son Landon (born October 9, 2003) and daughter Alabama (born December 24, 2005).
Barker filed for divorce from Moakler on August 8, 2006.
SHANNA MOAKLER commented on her MySpace page, that she was devastated by the demise of her marriage. Less than a week after filing for divorce, Barker posted negative comments about his estranged wife on his MySpace page. Barker later explained that he was "still absolutely in love" with
SHANNA MOAKLER, but that he posted the blog about her after "hearing things in the press that
SHANNA MOAKLER was saying." Both
SHANNA MOAKLER and Barker quickly removed the blogs from their pages and remained relatively quiet as to their impending divorce.
Eventually reports began to be circulated that Barker was seeing Paris Hilton. Tensions between Hilton and
SHANNA MOAKLER led to a confrontation at a Los Angeles nightclub (Hyde Lounge) in early October. Hilton and
SHANNA MOAKLER each accused the other of battery in separate complaints filed with the Los Angeles Police Department. Hilton claimed
SHANNA MOAKLER had punched her in the jaw and shouted at her, while
SHANNA MOAKLER said that Stavros Niarchos (Hilton's ex-boyfriend) bent her wrists, poured a drink on her and shoved her down stairs. Ultimately, no charges came out of the altercation.
In November 2006,
SHANNA MOAKLER threw herself a "divorce party" in Las Vegas, complete with a divorce cake featuring a bloody groom and a blonde, knife-wielding bride. In response, Barker again posted a blog on his MySpace page, this time criticizing
SHANNA MOAKLER for throwing the party.
