Background

Scott Disick was born on May 26, 1983, in Eastport, Long Island, New York. The boyfriend of socialite and reality television star Kourtney Kardashian, he's had regular appearances on both of her programs, Keeping up with the Kardashians and Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami.

Disick, who is an only child and very close to his parents, has long had a reputation for having expensive taste in clothes. At various times, in fact, Disick has floated the idea of launching his own fashion line.

Relationship with Kourtney Kardashian

Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick became parents on December 14, 2009, when their son, Mason Dash Disick, was born in Los Angeles. The couple welcomed a daughter, Penelope Scotland Disick, on July 8, 2011.

Disick, by his own admission, suffers from anger issues, and it's been a struggle at various points in his relationship with Kourtney for Kardashian fans and the Kardashian family to warm up to him. The summer following Mason's birth, Kourtney and Disick went through a very public split, before reuniting.

Kris Jenner, Kourtney's mom, even went so far as to compare Disick to former football star O.J. Simpson, who her late husband, Robert Kardashian, defended during Simpson's murder trial in the 1990s.

Disick's relationship with Khloé Kardashian has been especially tense, though things have improved. "Before they would be like, if Scott knew Khloé was going to be there, he wouldn't come, if Khloé knew Scott was going to be there, she wouldn't come," Kourtney said, describing their relationship. "So now they can be in the same room—they're definitely not calling each other like, 'I miss you so much, let's talk.' They don't speak, but they're civil."

The public spat with Kourtney seems to have helped propel Disick to address his behavior. Following the episode there were reports that Disick had sought outpatient treatment for alcohol and psychological issues.

In a revealing interview with Ryan Seacrest on E! News in 2010, Disick said, "I had to take a look at where my life is going. Or where it was gonna go if I kept acting the way I was. I never ever wanted to admit that I may have a problem."

In 2013, male model Michael Girgenti reportedly filed a paternity lawsuit against Kourtney, claiming that he was the father of her son Mason, as opposed to Disick. Kourtney immediately refuted the allegations and had Disick take a paternity test to dismiss any speculation as to who fathered her children. The test results revealed that Disick is the father of both Mason and Penelope.
