Kourtney Kardashian calls for privacy and respect as she shuts down false rumors about her son
Kourtney Kardashian has spoken out against the "lies" being spread about her oldest son, Mason, and the fake social media accounts pretending to be him.
Recently, rumors started circulating online claiming that Mason, the 15-year-old son of Kourtney and Scott Disick, had fathered a child. These rumors quickly gained traction, leading to widespread speculation.
Earlier today (March 2), Kardashian decided to break her silence on the issue, despite typically avoiding public responses to rumors or conspiracy theories. She addressed the situation directly on her Instagram story.
In her statement, Kardashian wrote: "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 share three children together: Mason, 15, Penelope, 12, and Reign, 10. Kourtney also recently welcomed her youngest son, 15-month-old Rocky Barker, with her husband, Travis Barker.

The rumors about Mason began surfacing after Scott Disick appeared on Khloe Kardashian’s podcast, Khloe in Wonderland, where they briefly discussed Mason and his growing interest in dating.
During the January 8 episode, Disick shared: "Mason especially, if he's going through something, you know, I talk to him about my life. Like mistakes that I did. Like here's what I've done and what's worked for me, what hasn't worked for me."
"Even recently, he's starting to really like girls. And obviously, girls like him. I just said, 'You know it's like, you can do whatever you want, just don't lie and don't manipulate any girls.'"

"If a girl tells you she wants to maybe do something with you and hook up or whatever, if she knows that you're not in a relationship with her, don't tell her you are just to get something out of her. And he's like, 'No, I know, I get it.'"
"So I said, 'Listen, you can do whatever you want as long as you're honest.' And honesty's the best policy but back in our day, it wasn't so easy."
