Larsa Pippen has been opening up about her relationship with Marcus Jordan, son of NBA legend Michael Jordan. What started out as mere friendship has turned into something more romantic. Recently, she revealed how she manages her dating life and her relationship with her ex-husband, Scottie Pippen. The two are co-parenting their four children, Scotty Jr., Preston, Justin, and Sophia. While the relationship between MJ and Scottie has deteriorated over the years, it is inconsequential to Larsa’s relationship with Marcus.

Larsa and Scottie Pippen got married in 1997 and were together for more than 20 years. Following many differences in the marriage, the couple got officially divorced in 2021. However, the two of them had separated 3 years prior. Larsa has been involved in many controversial relationships since, but the current one with Marcus has grabbed headlines due to the complicated relationship between Marcus’ father and Larsa’s ex-husband.

I hope he finds happiness and I’m happy and I wouldn’t care who he dates. If he was happy, he could literally date anybody on the planet.” Larsa mentioned.
