Kourtney Kardashian says she has fiancé Travis Barker to thank for helping her get through the 2022 Met Gala.
“I used to get nervous to do red carpets, but when I go with Travis we have fun together and don’t take it too seriously,” the reality star admitted via her Poosh website after the fête.
“When Travis and I were invited this year, we decided we were going to just enjoy the process, have fun being together, and not stress about it — and that’s exactly what we did!”
Kardashian, 43, explained that she “never actually thought about going to the Met Gala,” because it always felt “too overwhelming” and “seemed like a lot” of pressure.
“On the day of the Met, we didn’t want to feel like too much focus or pressure was being put on the event and wanted to enjoy New York City,” she shared.
“So Travis and I went out for matcha and sat in Central Park drinking them, and then we got a workout in. We also went out for lunch.”
When they finally made it to the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday, Kardashian and Barker, 46, packed on the PDA while posing for photos in matching Thom Browne skirts.
“We had such a great time getting ready together with our teams and had a little champagne before we left,” Kardashian recalled of their mid-afternoon glam.
“Then we loaded into a sprinter van, where I had to stand up the few blocks to the gala, as my skirt was being sewn on me during the whole ride … They literally sewed until the moment I had to step out onto the carpet.”
The lovebirds, who got engaged in October 2021 and recently returned from an Italian getaway, weren’t the only ones turning heads on the red carpet, however.
Kim Kardashian stole the show by walking the red carpet with boyfriend Pete Davidson. The Skims founder wowed in one of Marilyn Monroe’s most iconic dresses, while the “SNL” star looked dapper in Dior Men.
Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner were also in attendance.
