Mason Disick is no longer the adorable tot making us all melt on Keeping Up With The Kardashians as he makes his own Instagram account.

The 14-year-old is the eldest child of Kourtney Kardashian and ex-partner Scott Disick, who also share Penelope, 11, and Reign, nine.

His birth in 2009 was documented on the hit reality TV show KUWTK, with viewers watching Kourtney quite literally pull him out herself during the season four finale. Mason’s arrival was the first of many pregnancies documented on the Kardashians’ shows – the intimate family moments quickly became a favourite feature over the many seasons, with the siblings often inviting the cameras into the delivery suite.

Viewers have since watched Mason grow from a tiny newborn into a teen with the series chronicling the lives of the Kardashian family. Although, he has been less present on the Disney Plus version of the reality show, Kardashians.

Now, the youngster is documenting his own updates as he makes everyone feel ancient – including his own family – by creating his own Instagram account.

The youngster uploaded his first picture of himself to the platform, posing in green cargo trousers and a black t-shirt with a cap pulled over his face.

His aunts Kim and Khloe Kardashian were left suitably stunned by his social media presence, with the Skims mogul commenting: ‘You’re really on Instagram 🥹.’

The Good American owner added: ‘I can’t believe this is happening.’ Us either.

She also shared Mason’s selfie to her Instagram Stories, saying she was ‘sort of not ok’ with the new profile and that he’s ‘a real teenager.’

‘The one who named us Kiki and Koko,’ she added, referencing his adorable nicknames for Khloe and Kim as a child.

Mason shared several pics alongside his friends, as well as with his sibling Reign alongside the caption: ‘Pics is all we know.’

He has already gained more than 80,000 followers and follows just eight people including his parents, Kim, Khloe, aunts Kendall and Kylie Jenner, uncle Rob Kardashian, and grandma Kris Jenner.

Travis Barker, who tied the knot with Kourtney in May 2022 before the arrival of their son Rocky in November 2023, was not among Mason’s follower list.

Neither were Travis’s children Landon, 20, and Alabama, 18, from his previous relationship with Shanna Moakler. Caitlyn Jenner, who was married to Kris from 1991 to 2015 and is the parent of Kylie and Kendall, also did not make the cut.

It’s not the first time Mason has had an Instagram account, with him joining the site in 2020 without his parents’ permission – with them swiftly making him delete his page.

His Tiktok account was almost banned for violating their terms of service when he joined at 10 years old, with users required to be 13 or older.

In an interview with Vogue Paris in 2021, Kourtney explained her and Scott’s decision to prevent their eldest child from using social media at the time.

‘Mason started some secret accounts during quarantine. Those were quickly shut down,’ she said.

She reasoned that ‘what kids share today, it’s there forever,’ adding: ‘I felt like quarantine was a big lesson, too, because I felt like it was hard for kids.

‘I loved it because I loved being home and being with them and not feeling guilty or feel like I was missing out. It was a good time for bonding, but then I felt like for their social interaction, it was really hard for them.’
