Larsa Pippen And Marcus Jordan’s Romance
Marcus Jordan and Larsa Pippen are dating and have been spending more time together recently, a source told Us Weekly. Due to the conflict between Scottie and Michael, they are attempting to keep it quiet. They are definitely an item, said an onlooker who observed the couple on the claimed date night, adding to the rumors.
“As the night progressed it was obvious to everyone in the restaurant that she was really into him. She was hugging and kissing him, and she was practically sitting on his lap by the end of the dinner. It became a bit of a spectacle to onlookers as it was quite distracting,” said the source. There are questions about their relationship due to the Michael-Scottie link. There has been criticism owing to the decade-old age gap between both. Larsa is 48 and Marcus is 32.
Larsa certainly likes basketball men. Earlier she was married to Scott Pippen whom she divorced in 2021. So she isn’t really straying too far from the NBA.

Why Did Larsa And Scott Pippen’s Marriage Fall Apart?

The parties are now focusing successfully on co-parenting their remaining minor children.”
In a ‘Real Housewives of Miami‘ episode, Larsa revealed to co-star Alexia Echevarria that she had been “traumatised” by her divorce from Scottie and added that he was “The Punisher.” Larsa stated, “He punishes me if he doesn’t get his way“.
