Scott Disick’s return looks to be just kid stuff

When pictures emerged Wednesday of Scott Disick shopping for toys with his oldest son, Mason, in Calabasas, Kardashian watchers hoped there had been a thaw in his relationship with Kourtney Kardashian. Not so, insiders tell us. “The kids want to see him, that’s all,” a source accurate to the family told Confidenti@l, “It’s more about that than anything else. She’s not going to deprive the kids of their father.” Disick, who on July 9 went out of the home he shared with his girlfriend of nine years and their three kids, took their 5-year-ancient son to Barnes & Noble in the L.A. suburb and went for dinner at nearby Rosti Cafe. “The kids don’t know what’s going on (between Disick and Kardashian), but they know that daddy’s been away and they want to see him.”

TMZ reported this week that “all signs” suggest Kardashian has begun talking to famed divorce lawyer Laura Wasser (famed mainly for handling the splits of Kourtney’s sisters Kim and Khloe and mother Kris) about a custody arrangement. “It’s still very early in the (breakup) process, so who knows where the hell they’re going to be,” said our source, “but right now what they’re trying to do is co-parenting that’s not going to hurt the kids and have them grow up in this broken, broke home.” Disick is due to appear at 1Oak nightclub in Las Vegas on Friday night.

I’m sorry, Nicki.” Minaj quickly jumped in, prose: “That means so much Taylor thank you,” and adding three heart emojis. The two had exchanged terms over Minaj’s VMA snub for her video, “Anaconda.”
