Tat Dad Trav to Get Tots?

Posted Jul 13th 2007 2:52AM by TMZ Staff

Travis Barker says he's getting custody of his children with Shanna Moakler.

TMZ spotted the laid back tatty rocker leaving Les Deux last night, where he gleefully told our photog, "I'm getting custody of my kids right now." Travis and Shanna have two kids together, Landon Asher and Alabama Luella. Barker filed for divorce last August.

Though Barker and Moakler had a rocky separation -- with both of them taking to MySpace for some trash talkin' -- the two were all over each other when TMZ caught them together back in April -- looks like the reconciliation was brief.

A rep for Moakler had no comment.

UPDATE: TMZ spoke with lawyers from both sides in a conference call, who explained that Barker's claim was a big fat misunderstanding, and issued a joint statement saying, "The recent post on TMZ regarding Travis Barker was taken out of context. At that time, he was going to pick up his children, exercising his agreed upon custody time. Shanna and Travis currently share custody of the children.'

17. Aren't these hollyweird people a joke for parents. It would be funny if kids were not involved, but sadly this is who gets hurt. This guy is drunk and doped up. How the hell can he take care of children in his stooper of drugs and be responsible for children. These people should be castrated...both the men and the women. Yuk!

18. from what i hav seen travis is a good dad, atrleast a better parent than shannon. i mean even that whole situation with paris in the club and giving out her number are just such bad examples to her children.she really did sleep all day as well n the show. he was more a parent to shannon's child than she was. she's not really a bad person, but she is not very mature either

25. #10 you realize that going on tour actually provides income and support for a family, as opposed to sleeping and shopping right? when was the last time shanna actually worked? thats what i thought...

26. ok so anyone who has tattoos is a poser? you guys ripping on travis for image are rediculous. he works hard, and makes a good living for his family (including shanna who doesnt do crap but shop and sleep and collect child support checks)
