After nearly two years together, Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan have officially called it quits, just weeks after rekindling their romance in March. The reality star confirmed to E! News her single status in October, stating, “I am single. I haven’t really gone on too many dates recently.” That said, don’t expect her to broadcast her next romance to the world.

Having learned from the intense media scrutiny that surrounded her last relationship, Larsa is now determined to keep her next love story out of the spotlight. At least until she knows it’s the real thing. “I don’t want to share too much, honestly,” she admitted. “I feel like my last relationship was on display from day one, and if I do meet someone, I’m going to take my time.” For someone who’s spent years in the public eye, she knows how difficult it can be to truly get to know someone when every move is scrutinized.

Still, whispers are already swirling about a potential new beau. According to Page Six, Larsa was spotted at Real Housewives of Miami star Marysol Patton’s birthday bash on March 29. At the upscale Maple & Ash, Larsa made a low-key entrance – except for one detail. She reportedly arrived hand-in-hand with professional basketball player Jeff Coby, 31, and the two were anything but shy once inside.

“They were cute. She was glowing,” a source spilled to Page Six. Larsa even shared the moments from that event on her Instagram Story. So who is Jeff Coby?

Coby, with Haitian-born parents, was born in Pembroke Pines, Florida, United States. The Haitian-American hooper played college basketball at Columbia, last suited up for Basket Racing Club Luxembourg in 2019. Interestingly, in 2017, he went undrafted. As a result, he is not a well-known name in the NBA, but he seems to have caught Larsa’s attention.

Even more interesting? Though he’s not the most active on Instagram, Coby does follow Larsa – and she follows him back. While neither has addressed the rumors yet, but one thing is clear: Marcus Jordan chapter is firmly in the past.

Unlike Marcus Jordan, who came with a heavy legacy of his father’s fame, Jeff Coby’s more understated career in basketball may offer Larsa a fresh start. Known for his quiet professionalism, Coby seems to be the polar opposite of her ex.

Larsa Pippen is doing “great” without Marcus Jordan

It seems Larsa Pippen isn’t just moving on—she’s embracing single life to the fullest. Months after her split from Marcus Jordan, she’s been nothing but upbeat. Back in November, she told PEOPLE at Bravo Fan Fest 2024 that she was doing “great,” proving that her past relationship isn’t weighing her down.

More than that, Larsa is enjoying the freedom that comes with being single. “I sleep like a baby and I feel like single life should be appreciated more,” she shared. And when asked if she’s still in contact with Marcus, her answer was short and clear: “No.” She explained, “I feel like when people break up, it’s like I can love you from a distance.”

Interestingly, Larsa also expressed she wasn’t even looking to date again so soon. In October, she told PEOPLE, “I already feel full from my last relationship. I need to just focus on other things at this point.” Work, family, and personal growth seem to be her main priorities right now. “I am working, I am enjoying my family time. I’m good.”

Back in July, she confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that her relationship with Marcus was truly “off.” “I think it’s off. I mean, it’s off. It is off,” she said. “I feel like I’m good. I’m good.”

But with a new potential love interest now in the picture, what’s next for the Real Housewives of Miami star?
