Michael Jordan Finally Gave His Thoughts On His Son Dating Larsa Pippen, And It's Not Good For Larsa

1 year ago 7

You may or may not know this, but Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen, 48, is dating Michael Jordan's son, Marcus, who's 32.

Now, Larsa used to be married to Scottie Pippen, Michael Jordan's teammate. They had tension between them, and recently, Scottie said that despite the fact he and Michael were successful teammates, they ultimately are not friends. He also revealed that he found Michael's depiction of him in his docuseries The Last Dance to be "condescending." He also called Michael "selfish."

On The Tamron Hall Show, Tamron asked Larsa about her relationship with 32-year-old Marcus Jordan, who's 16 years her junior.

Larsa said she doesn't think age determines maturity. Then Tamron got right to asking the tough question. "I think for people, the age thing is secondary. The thing is — you are a beautiful woman. You can date anybody you wanted to. Why would you date Michael Jordan's son, knowing that it's been pretty clear that Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan didn't have this relationship people thought and certainly don't have it now?"

Tamron then re-asked, "But you could date anyone in the world, why date Michael Jordan's son?" Larsa responded, "I didn't plan it like that. We were just together a lot with our friends. You gotta remember — being with an athlete, you get scrutinized a lot. People don't think you should have a life once you get divorced. I feel like I should have love and be able to date who I want and live happy and go wherever I wanna go and not be judged every time I'm seen with someone. It's hard."

Tamron then said, "It's also hard meeting their parents. Have you met Michael Jordan and Juanita Jordan?"

Larsa responds, "I recently have been hanging out with them. I don't really wanna talk about them. It's not about my parents or his parents"

Larsa said that she has their blessing and that they spent holidays together, so all is good.

HOWEVER — and this is a big HOWEVER — TMZ caught Michael Jordan outside a restaurant in Paris this weekend and asked him, "Hey Mr. Jordan, what do you think about Marcus and Larsa Pippen together? Do you approve of it?"

Michael chuckled, paused, and said, "No!"

Then the reporter asked again, "You don't approve?" And he shook his head.

Yiiiiikes. Larsa and the GOAT's stories don't match up. You can watch the TMZ moment here.

And you can watch Larsa on Real Housewives of Miami on Peacock now.
