Shanna Moakler regrets participating in Travis Barker’s documentary.
Shanna Moakler has shared her big regret
The 51-year-old actress was married to Travis between 2004 and 2008, but she now regrets agreeing to appear in Travis Barker: Louder Than Fear, the musician’s new documentary.
Shanna told the I Do, Part 2 podcast: “I regret a lot. I wish I didn’t do it.
“I don’t know how he got me to go and do this documentary. I think it was before he was with his wife [Kourtney Kardashian]. I’m pretty sure. And I just wish I hadn’t done it because I knew in my heart I wasn’t going to be portrayed the way that I felt I deserved.”
Shanna admitted to being “disappointed” in herself for appearing in the documentary.
The actress – who has Landon, 22, and daughter Alabama, 20, with Travis – said: “I just was like, ‘Yeah, that’s kind of what I thought was going to happen’. I’m a little disappointed with myself for participating.”
Shanna has written a new memoir called Blink of an Eye, and Travis features prominently in the book.
She said: “It’s not just about Travis. Travis has a couple chapters, but it’s not just about chapters.
“I want this book to be one that inspires women to learn about trauma, trauma bonding, how to get over living through embarrassing things in the public eye, but more than anything, kind of finding that journey back to yourself. It’s more about inspiring women.”
Shanna also opened up about her co-parenting relationship with Travis.
The actress shared: “The one thing my ex and I agree on — it’s the only thing my ex and I agree on because we don’t agree on anything else — was our children. That was putting our children first.
“You really need to sit down with yourself and say, ‘My priority is giving my children the healthiest and best future possible.’ At the end of the day, whether you like it or not, your child deserves to know their father. Your child deserves to know their mother. Whether you respect them or not, it’s their parent. You have to allow your children to know their other parent.”
