Oscar De La Hoya shared daughter Atiana De La Hoya, with his ex-wife Shanna Mokoakler. He credits her as well as Travis Barker with raising the child.

Travis Barker is still a proud father to his stepdaughter Atiana de La Hoya, even though he has moved on and married Kourtney Kourtney. Her biological father Oscar De La Hoya sees this and is grateful.

The boxer acknowledged this on Friday in Entertainment Tonight, acknowledging the "moms'" of his kids were the ones that stepped up to help with their children. "Look, I did not raise my children, you know?" He admitted it to the outlet.

He added, "I must give credit where it is due." "I am grateful that Barker, as a dad figure, was there for my daughter." Barker and Atiana married in 2004 after his divorce in 2000 from Shanna Mokoakler when Atiana was just a year old.

De La Hoya, who calls himself "absentee father," said: "I must be grateful that Shanna is a mother to Atiana... and just know my place in general, you know?"

"My place - I'm a dad, I'm very proud of that," he said. "But again, I am grateful for what they have done. Barker in particular. He's clearly stepped up to meet the challenge."

Barker is also the father of two children that he shares with Moakler: Landon, and Alabama. He has always considered them all his children. He has become a stepfather again. This time, he is the father of Kourtney and Scott's children -- Mason, Reign, and Penelope. The couple are also expecting their first child together.

De La Hoya described Barker as "a very nice man". "I have the highest respect for him."

Atiana recently celebrated Penelope Barker's 11th Birthday with the Barker Family. Both Atiana, and Travis posted about the event on their Instagram stories.
