Travis Barker made sure that both of Kourtney Kardashian's parents knew of his plans to propose to the Poosh founder late last year. During Thursday's episode of the Hulu series The Kardashians, fans got to see more of the moment when Travis, 46, telephoned Kris Jenner asking for permission to marry her 43-year-old daughter. While recounting the emotional phone call with daughter Kim Kardashian ahead of her Saturday Night Live debut, Kris revealed that Travis had gone out of his way to also ask Kourtney and Kim's late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., for his blessing. "He asked for her hand in marriage, and I was like, literally, I want to cry now," Kris, 66, said while getting her makeup done in Kim's dressing room. "It was so sweet and so tender. And then he said he went to your dad's grave and asked your dad [for permission], and I just lost it." From left: Robert Kardashian Sr., Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian.

I can hardly believe that it's the first time that she's getting married." "That's really crazy that she hasn't been married before," said Kim, 41, before joking, "While I've had enough for all of us!"

"He's gonna have a hard time, but ... they can't put their life on hold just to tiptoe around him," Khloé, 37, told Ellen DeGeneres ahead of an appearance on her talk show. "No, no, I don't think so either," DeGeneres, 64, responded. "I just think it's gonna be [hard], especially because she said she didn't want to get married." "That's the part that I feel bad about," Khloé said. "But I don't know, you snooze you lose."

Then, while driving to Santa Barbara together for Kourtney's surprise proposal, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner also addressed the situation. "I wonder if Scott knows," Kylie, 24, said on their road trip. "I know, it worries me sometimes because I just don't know how stable he is right now," Kendall, 26, noted. "I haven't spoken to him on that sort of a level in a long time, so I don't know where he's at in his mental health." Echoing sister Khloé's earlier sentiments, Kylie added, "Kourtney obviously has to continue to live her life and be happy." Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian.

That's the whole point of all of this, is that it's their anniversary, and this throws a whole wrench in [their plans]. He's beside himself." "I don't know if the engagement will happen on Sunday," Kris added. Though the pair offered to brainstorm some alternative ideas for the proposal, it was later revealed that Kourtney's egg retrieval had been pushed to another day, allowing for Travis to carry on with his initial plans.
