Scott Disick shares a unique connection with his daughter, Penelope. He expressed his love for her on Instagram Story, mentioning how she has brought so much joy into his life. In fact, he highly recommends having a daughter like her.
Disick shared a selfie on social media with his daughter Penelope, 11, whom he co-parents with his ex-girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian. In the photo, Disick is wearing a gray sweatshirt and sunglasses, sitting outside in a chair. Penelope is standing behind him, playfully puckering her lips for the camera.
Disick and Kardashian became parents for the first time in 2009, when they welcomed their son Mason. Three years later, Penelope entered the world. In 2014, the couple welcomed their son Reign before eventually deciding to end their relationship in the following year. Despite their separation, Disick and Kardashian have remained dedicated to peacefully co-parenting their children.
"The truth is, my personal issues should not impact the kids. Just because their mother and I couldn't make it work as a romantic couple shouldn't affect the children," Disick shared exclusively with We in June 2019. "They shouldn't have to suffer for our mistakes, so we found a way to handle it. We need to continue being honest and kind to each other, just like we would if we were still together. Our focus is on co-parenting these children together, and that's what matters."
In conclusion, he added, "We live just a few miles apart, keeping things simple. The fact that we have made an effort and found a way to make it work has greatly improved our lives. I couldn't imagine raising three children with someone I couldn't communicate with every day."
Kardashian has moved on with Travis Barker and they got married in 2022. They welcomed their son Rocky Thirteen a year later. Barker, who is 48 years old, also has three kids from his previous marriage to Shanna Moakler. Disick, Kardashian's ex, was happy for the couple when they had their new baby.
According to a source in June 2023, "Scott knows that this is something Kourtney has wanted for a long time. He reached out to congratulate her and Travis, even though it was bittersweet for him. Despite wishing things could have worked out between them, all he truly wants is for Kourtney to be happy."
The Flip It Like Disick alum had been open about struggling to see Kardashian in a relationship with Barker.
In an episode of The Kardashians in April 2022, Disick expressed, "Now that Kourtney has her life with Travis, as tough as it is, it does give me a chance to finally move forward. I would rather be around [Kourtney and Travis] and my family than not at all. Losing Kourtney romantically was a big change, but now losing her as a close friend has been even harder. We are now mainly coparents. This has been one of the toughest challenges in my life."
Despite the highs and lows of his relationship with Kardashian, Disick has enjoyed sharing precious fatherly moments with his children on social media. Penelope and Reign have often been seen in scenes at his home with the Kardashians.
As Disick celebrates his 41st birthday on Sunday, May 26, his kids planned something special to commemorate the occasion.
“Ain’t love grand,” he wrote via Instagram Story, sharing a pic of Penelope and Reign’s DIY picnic inside his house. “Love u guys! Best bday a dad could ever wish [for].”
