Brody, 31, appeared on the Today Show and broke the family’s silence after 32-year-old Scott was photographed getting close to his alleged ex Chloe Bartoli in St. Tropez.
Former The Hills star Brody said: “Scott and Kourtney both are great you know obviously Scott has been through some issues in the past, but he’s worked through them.”
But even Brody had to admit the snaps of Scott, which were taken while Kourtney was at home in LA with their children, were bad.
He continued: “Honestly, when I saw those pictures, I went, ‘Uh-oh. This isn’t good’. It’s unfortunate.”
Kourtney, 36, put on a brave face over Independence Day weekend, spending some quality time with Mason, five, Penelope, two, and six-month-old Reign Aston.
E! News, part of the entertainment brand which produces their hit reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, reported the split at the beginning of the week, insisting Kourtney ‘has to do what’s best for the kids’.
Meanwhile Kourtney’s brother-in-law Kanye West has allegedly stepped in to help take care of the children in Scott’s absence.
It’s claimed the 38-year-old rapper and wife Kim, 34, took Mason to New York for the Fourth of July celebrations.
The New York Post reported that Kanye and Mason went to the cinema while Kim and their two-year-old daughter North went out for lunch with friends.
Both Kourtney and Scott have yet to address the reports of a split, Kim and Khloe, 30, have been supporting their sister, with Kourt gushing on Instagram: “My aces. Can you have two aces?! Well lucky me, I do [sic].”
