The former nanny of Kourtney Kardashian has denied rumours she slept with the reality star’s musician husband Travis Barker.

Leah Barrs worked for the Kardashian family between 2019 and 2022, caring for the three children of Kourtney and her ex husband Scott Dissick.

However, while starring in recent reality series Million Dollar Nannies in Ibiza, Barrs let slip to another nanny while drunk on camera that she had previously slept with a father who had employed her.

“Have you ever hooked up with a dad?” the nanny recalled being asked, responding, “Yeah, I f..... a dad”.

With her “secret” soon exposed to her client family on the series, Barrs was fired from the show she helped launch and labelled a “home wrecker”, only fuelling further speculation over the man’s identity.

Last week, the 31-year-old appeared on Aussie reality star Harry Jowsey’s podcast Boyfriend Material to set the record straight.

“The real story is this guy is my friend, and I did him a favour one night and he came back from his event, his daughter was asleep,” she said.

“Technically I’m clocked out, he is my friend, I always thought he was hot, we hook up, and . . . so it was just something so insignificant that happened so long ago that just got blown out of proportion.”

Not entirely satisfied with her answer, Jowsey asked one last time if she “didn’t f... Kourtney Kardashian’s partner, Travis?”

“No, my gosh, no!” Barrs said.

“And he’s (the dad) single, so...”

The nanny confirmed the incident took place when she had first moved to Los Angeles and was 22 years of age.

She felt it was unfair that a past indiscretion became an issue on the show as it had occurred “so long ago”, and that she had provided no other context to her co-star who leaked it, or anyone else.

“It was my own fault, I should have just closed my mouth,” Barrs added.

Believing she had been unfairly axed, and righteous in her past actions, the nanny admitted viewers had reached out to her to share far more unscrupulous behaviours.

“I know what I did wasn’t wrong, but there’s these girls in my DMs being like, ‘Girl, if you only knew what I did, I f..... this dad while his wife was on vacation,’” Barrs revealed.

“Makes me feel a little better.”

The nanny said she had “so many crazy nanny stories” but NDAs limited her ability to share them, although she would personally prefer to keep them private in any case.
