While it is not clear what the "urgent family matter" is, Barker and his famous wife, reality star Kourtney Kardashian, are currently expecting a baby boy.

Barker additionally took to his Instagram Stories to share several photos of a prayer room, hours before the band’s announcement. 

The first photo was outside the prayer room, with a sign that read "All welcome." He also posted a photo inside the room with a large stained-glass window. His last photo was a blue banner that said, "Together we pray."

Reps for Kardashian and Barker did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

She referenced a previous Blink-182 music video of the 1999’s hit "All the Smalls Thing." In the video, a passionate fan is seen in the crowd holding a sign that also spelled out "Travis I’m Pregnant."
