Larsa Pippen Opens Up About Her Feelings Following Michael Jordan’s Remarks on Her Relationship with Marcus Jordan

Larsa Pippen Opens Up About Michael Jordan’s Disapproval of Her Relationship with Marcus Jordan.

During the latest episode of their Separation Anxiety podcast, Larsa Pippen addressed her feelings of embarrassment and trauma after NBA legend Michael Jordan publicly expressed his disapproval of her romance with his son, Marcus Jordan. Larsa, aged 49, shared her perspective on the matter and how it affected her.

Earlier this month, a TMZ photographer questioned Michael about his son’s relationship with Larsa, who gained fame on the reality TV show Real Housewives of Miami. Although Michael initially laughed off the question, he eventually responded with a clear “No!” when asked if he approved of their relationship, highlighting the significant age difference between the couple.

On the podcast, Marcus Jordan chimed in, finding his father’s comment amusing. He explained that their family has a competitive nature and enjoys playful banter, suggesting that his father’s response was likely lighthearted. Marcus also mentioned that Michael had reached out to them afterward to clarify that he didn’t mean any harm by his remark, reassuring Larsa that he genuinely approved of their relationship.

However, Larsa expressed her initial embarrassment, feeling as though the situation had received excessive attention. She admitted feeling self-conscious about it being publicized and expressed relief after understanding Michael’s intentions.

Larsa and Marcus also discussed the rumored feud between Michael and Larsa’s ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, who were former teammates on the Chicago Bulls. They acknowledged the narrative that Marcus is dating Larsa to seek revenge against Scottie. Marcus clarified that his father prefers not to comment on their relationship due to their complicated history, emphasizing that he found the situation amusing from the beginning.

Larsa acknowledged the potential awkwardness of their relationship for both Michael and Scottie, considering their past connections. However, she reiterated that she and Marcus were not involved in any ongoing tension between the two NBA players.

In January, Larsa confirmed her relationship with Marcus by sharing a photo on Instagram where they stood in front of a floral display featuring Michael Jordan’s iconic #23 Chicago Bulls jersey.

Larsa was previously married to Scottie Pippen, with whom she shares four children. They were married in 1997 and divorced in 2021. Their children include Scotty Jr., Preston, Justin, and Sophia.
