"I personally don't really care" - Larsa Pippen opens up on Marcus Jordan relationship and Scottie Pippen feud
Scottie Pippen's ex-wife, Larsa Pippen, has reportedly been dating Michael Jordan's son, Marcus Jordan, since September last year. After denying their relationship for months, Larsa and Jordan went public with their relationship on Instagram on Valentine's Day.
Larsa also opened up about her relationship with Marcus in an appearance on "The Tamron Hall Show." She's in love and in a happy place, and doesn't really care what people think.
Some people are bothered by the pair dating each other. Especially considering Scottie's animosity towards Michael since "The Last Dance" documentary was released in 2020.
"I can't basically explain someone else feels," Larsa said. "That's how Scottie feels, he has a right to the way he feels. I personally don't really care about what other people, you know? I feel like I live my truth.
"I'm happy, I feel like we get along. He's my best friend. I feel like we have a lot in common."
Tamron Hall also asked Larsa Pippen why she started dating Michael Jordan's son, considering everything that happened the past two years. Larsa explained that she was never friends with the Jordan family and never planned on dating Marcus.
"I didn't plan it like that," Larsa said. "It wasn't like it was planned like that. I think we were just together a lot with our friends and it just happened. It wasn't something I planned.
"You gotta remember like, I feel like for me being married to someone that was an athlete or whatever, it's really hard. You get scrutinized a lot. People don't think you should have a life once you get divorced."
