Kourtney Kardashian is stepping in to quash swirling online speculation about her 15-year-old son, Mason Disick, amid claims that he secretly fathered a child.
The rumors, which have taken Reddit and TikTok by storm in recent weeks, prompted the reality star to break her silence and set the record straight.
The buzz began on a “Kardashian” subreddit, where a user alleged that Mason maintains a private Instagram account used solely for close friends. According to the claim, Mason supposedly responded to a friend’s comment, admitting to having a one-year-old daughter named Piper Disick with a teenage girl from his art class.
The post further alleged that Mason called the child a “failed protection”—implying a contraceptive mishap—and expressed reluctance about fatherhood. From there, the rumor hopped to TikTok, fueled by supposed “receipts” that sent fans into a frenzy.
Celebrity gossip veteran Perez Hilton weighed in a few days ago, dissecting the speculation in a social media video. While recapping the claims’ journey from Reddit to TikTok, Hilton dismissed their credibility, stating he didn’t buy into the chatter. Still, the rumors persisted, drawing enough attention to pull Kourtney out of her usual low-key stance on family matters.

On Sunday, March 2, 2025, the 45-year-old Poosh founder took to her Instagram Story to shut it all down. Addressing the “rumors and conspiracies” head-on, she made it clear there’s no truth to the idea that Mason, her eldest son with ex-Scott Disick, is a father. The move marks a rare public rebuttal from Kourtney, who typically lets online noise fade on its own.
“I rarely address rumors or conspiracies regarding myself or my family, but this is about my child and it feels wrong to let anyone think for a second that these lies are remotely true. They are not. Mason does not have a child. These accounts that pretend to be him are definitely not. They are FAKE. My son really values his privacy, and I am asking all media to please be respectful: he is a kid with feelings and a beautiful life ahead of him. Please stop spreading false narratives and spinning lies. And to all the other people making videos about my kids (who, by the way, are minors), please stop and leave them alone.”
Kourtney and Scott, who split in 2015 after a decade together, also share daughter Penelope, 12, and son Reign, 10. Since marrying Travis Barker in 2022, Kourtney welcomed her fourth child, 15-month-old Rocky Barker. Mason, now a teenager navigating life under the Kardashian spotlight, has become a trending topic in his own right—but this time, it’s a story his mom is determined to end.
With Kourtney’s firm denial, the conspiracy mill may finally slow down. For now, the Kardashian-Disick clan keeps moving forward, leaving the Reddit rabbit hole behind.
