Kardashian fans share theory on why Kourtney & Travis Barker’s newborn son has not been seen weeks after star gave birth
KARDASHIAN fans have come up with a new theory about Kourtney's absence from the public eye.
Kourtney, 44, gave birth to her baby boy on November 1, but hasn't shown him to the world since.
Hulu fans are desperate for a glimpse of Rocky Thirteen Barker, whom Kourtney shares with her husband Travis Barker, 47.
Now, fans have a new theory about why the couple has chosen to keep their baby private so far.
On Reddit, fans of the Kardashians debated Kourtney's silence, and many suggested that money was the major motivating factor.
Kicking off the discussion, a Kardashian-Jenner devotee asked: "I haven’t been following Keeping Up With the Kardashians news, so if I missed it, sorry! I wonder why Kourtney hasn’t shared a picture of her new baby.
"Could it possibly be because she shared so much with her other babies that she wants to keep this one private?"
In response, one person said: "The longer she waits the more money it's worth. I doubt she cares about the babies privacy.
"It was very recent that she let her daughter crying bc she just found out her mom is getting married air on TV."
Another claimed: "Why would she? She owes no one pics. But let’s be real, she’s saving the reveal for whatever will get her the most money."

GONE FOR GOOD?
While some fans think that Kourtney is waiting for money in order to reveal her son, an insider claims she might be out of the spotlight for good.
After giving birth, Kourtney reportedly had a strict "invite-only rule" for anyone coming to visit her baby boy, The U.S. Sun exclusively learned in early November.
Now, however, it seems she's settles on keeping up her new extent of privacy.
A source exclusively told The U.S Sun: "Kourtney always wanted 40 days to recuperate after giving birth.
"Her pregnancy was hard and physically and emotionally challenging, and she had no intention of rushing back out there - she wants to slow it all down.
"She says she has nothing to prove, but wanted to make sure all the kids were feeling grounded and secure and loved and involved.
"Now as the 40 days are nearly up, Kourtney says she's going to take her time getting back to it."
The insider added: "Friends are worried she'll never return to public life - at least not at the level she was.
"When her family ask about when she'll be back to work she tells them she won't be rushed and to back off.
"She's basically cut herself off from everyone at this stage."
SCARY JOURNEY
Some of Kourtney's fans suggested that she was keeping herself or her baby away from the public eye for reasons of health, after her scary pregnancy journey.
