LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kourtney Kardashian is reportedly growing more and more exasperated with stepdaughter Alabama Barker as the teen continues to engage in a messy and very public feud with rapper Bhad Bhabie.

Sources close to the Kardashian-Barker household say Kourtney has urged Alabama to let the drama go, advising her to rise above the online chaos and focus on more meaningful pursuits, Daily Mail reported.

The 19-year-old daughter of Travis Barker doesn’t appear ready to let go, especially after being accused of trying to “steal” Bhad Bhabie’s boyfriend, Le Vaughn. Alabama has firmly denied the accusation, saying she believed he was single and that he deceived her.

Both Alabama and Bhad Bhabie, real name Danielle Bregoli, have been feuding for the past few months with their most recent clash being a diss track from Bhabie taking aim at Alabama.

“Kourtney is at her wit’s end,” a family insider revealed. “She is a loose cannon and refuses to play by the family's request to be drama-free. Despite pleas to stay out of trouble, Alabama is doing the exact opposite. Kourtney doesn't raise her children this way.”

Despite being a stepmother, Kourtney has reportedly tried to offer Alabama guidance without coming down too hard, respecting that she’s legally an adult—but the influence this drama might have on Kourtney’s own children is clearly a growing concern.

According to a source close to the reality TV icon, Kourtney feels the 19-year-old’s choices are starting to influence her younger children and not in a way she’s comfortable with.

The insider shared that Kourtney has grown “frustrated” watching things unfold, especially given her own public experience and desire to keep her family somewhat grounded amid fame.

“Kourtney and Travis are not clashing over what to do with Alabama because they share the same beliefs about her actions,” the source said. “They're just frustrated because there is nothing they can do. She doesn't blame Travis.”

Despite the tension, the source insists there’s no rift between Kourtney and her husband, Travis Barker.

“She believes Alabama needs crisis PR, but she's an adult, making her own choices, and Kourtney can only sit back and let it play out,” the source said.

Kourtney Kardashian’s 9-year-old son, Reign Disick, unexpectedly found himself in the middle of a viral moment after hopping on Instagram Live with Alabama Barker’s boyfriend, Scooter Jackson.

In what seemed like a casual stream, things quickly escalated when a viewer tossed in a bizarre question: "Was Justin Bieber actually Reign’s father?"

“No, he’s not. Bro, I swear, Justin Bieber is not my dad,” Reign said adding, “Scotty… Scotty… Scotty is my dad.”

He even backed up saying, “I don't know how old my mom was, but I think Justin Bieber was 16 when I got born. I don't think my mom would do that.”

Kourtney shares Reign, along with Mason and Penelope, with ex Scott Disick. Her blended family with husband Travis Barker also includes their 1-year-old son Rocky, as well as his children Landon, Alabama, and stepdaughter Atiana from his previous marriage to Shanna Moakler.
