DJ AM and Travis Barker expected to make full recovery

A doctor has announced that Travis Barker and DJ AM are expected to have a full recovery after yesterday's horrific plane crash, reports TMZ. Dr. Fred Mullins, medical director of the Joseph M. Still Burn Center, said both Travis and Adam suffered second and third-degree burns. Mullins said Barker's torso and Adam's hands and part of his head were burned.

The crash killed four people, including Barker's assistant, Chris Baker. Yesterday, it was reported that Chris' wife was in labor, and the reason they took a private jet home in the first place was so that Chris could make it back in time for the birth of his second child. But a publicist for Travis Barker and DJ AM contacted TMZ and said those sources were incorrect -- that Chris Baker's wife was not in labor when he died in the plane crash and that was not the reason Travis and the others flew home on a private jet.

Barker was the former drummer for Blink 182. Barker's marriage to former Miss USA, Shanna Moakler, was the focus of MTV's "Meet the Barkers" reality show (2005-2006). They have two children. After filing for divorce in 2006, his brief relationship with socialite-reality TV star Paris Hilton was tabloid fodder. DJ AM also made it into the tabloids for once dating Nicole Richie.
