Travis Barker has gotten a brace for an injured finger ahead of Blink-182’s reunion
Travis Barker was spotted walking hand-in-hand with his wife, Kourtney Kardashian, on Monday through the streets of WeHo, Los Angeles.
Moreover, the couple looked relaxed as they slurped their respective drinks with Barker’s appearing to be unbothered by his banged-up digits.
Kardashian and Barker were seen wearing complimentary outfits for their trip with each being dressed in black, red, and white colors.
While Barker opted to don a black jacket over a white t-shirt with red writing printed throughout, Karen was seen walking alongside him carrying a black leather designer bag.
In addition, the images show Barker’s left hand is protected by a brace after he injured at least three of his fingers during rehearsals.
Furthermore, Blink-182’s drummer took to his social media account to share a nasty picture of his injury on Sunday.
The image shows Barker’s ring finger appears to be popping out of the skin.
Meanwhile, the 47-year-old singer confirmed that his fingers are either broken or dislocated as he uploaded an X-ray of his hands earlier today.
Subsequently, the injury comes at a bad time since Barker is gearing up to return to the road for Blink-182’s upcoming tour in less than a month.
Barker also explained his injury to fans online earlier this month on 8th February.
He wrote, ‘I was playing the drums at rehearsals yesterday and I smashed my finger so hard I dislocated it and tore the ligaments.’
Fans react to Travis Barker’s injury
Many fans took to the comment of Travis Barker’s post to give their take on his gruesome injury.
Although some fans expressed their empathy towards the star, others were focused on the missing wedding ring in the picture.
For the unversed, Barker did not appear to wear his while he shared a picture on Valentine’s Day.
A user asked, ‘Wait… where’s the ring?’
However, Barker replied simply with, ‘My ring finger is swollen, dislocated, and black and blue.’
The fan went on to mention, ‘That was a dumb question. Obviously, something is wrong with his finger.’
Moreover, another fan chimed in to jokingly point out, ‘Did someone really just ask this poor guy where his ring is at?’
