Shanna Moakler, a former beauty queen, often defined by her past marriage to Travis Barker and her associations to the Kardashian family, has broken silence over her connection to them.
In a candid interview with PEOPLE Magazine, Moakler emphasized her hard-won achievements and dismissed her associations with famous ex-husbands and the Kardashian family.
"I'm more than just the ex-wife of famous men,†she stated.
The model went on to share, “I was Miss USA at 19. I'm smart. Every part I've ever got in any movie, or every show I hosted or auditioned for, I worked my f---ing ass off to get.â€
Moakler also expressed her frustration with constant comparisons to the Kardashian family, stating, "I also don't have to like the f---ing Kardashians, and I'm honestly sick of talking about them.â€
She further declared, “As I stand here today, as a mature woman who's gone through all that... I do not give a f--- what anyone thinks of me anymore. I'm proud of who I am."
Shanna Moakler married Travis Barker in 2004, and got estranged in 2006, but the couple rekindled their relationship before finalizing their divorce in 2008.
The couple shares 3 kids, Landon, Alabama and Atiana.
After divorcing Moakler, Braker got married to Kourtney Kardashian in 2022 and welcomed son Rocky Thirteen.
