Alabama Barker has broken her silence on rumors that she was hospitalized

Alabama Barker addresses the circulating rumors that she was hospitalized for nicotine withdrawal.

“Hey everyone, just wanted to clarify that I wasn’t in the hospital this month or last,” the 19-year-old rapper wrote to Vogue via her Instagram story on Tuesday, Dec. 31. “The situation happened a while ago and I was there for three hours before they discharged me.

Earlier this week, rumors spread across the internet that Alabama, who is the daughter of Travis Barker and ex-wife Shana Moaklersuffered from nicotine withdrawal after she allegedly stopped drinking. While Barker didn’t reveal why she was at the hospital, she did share what she got out of the visit.

“They gave me a nicotine patch and an inhaler. That’s it,” she continued. “Let’s avoid spreading any rumors and focus on progress. Thank you.”

Earlier this week, Alabama revealed that she had just gotten over the flu.

“I had the flu and I’m not well,” she said on December 27 TikTok video. “I didn’t get to enjoy (my birthday) because I was so sick, but I’m back on my feet.”

Alabama’s birthday is on Christmas Eve – which explains why she wasn’t featured in any photos with her father and his wife. Kourtney Kardashianat the Kardashians’ annual holiday gathering. While Alabama missed the celebration, it did score epic holiday gift.

In the same TikTok from Dec. 27, Alabama showed off what she got for Christmas, which included a glamorous Balenciaga shoulder bag, a vintage gold Dior bag, a fluffy Prada bag, a quilted Chanel backpack, a Birkin bag, and more.

“Got my second Birkin for my collection,” Alabama said, holding up the Hermès bag. “We love her!”

While Alabama was recovering, Travis posted a sweet post in honor of his daughter’s birthday.

“Happy 19th birthday my angel @alabamaluellabarker. I can’t believe I’m saying it,” the Blink-182 drummer wrote via Instagram at that time. “I’m so proud of you and love watching you grow. Never settle, the stars are not far away. Never give up, never give up. I love you unconditionally. I love you to the moon and back. 🖤 ​​Dad.”

Alabama and her father have shared a close bond over the years. As Alabama pursued her musical dreams, Travis supported her along the way. When the music video for her song “Vogue,” released earlier this month, Travis and Kardashian made cameos in the production.
