Larsa Pippen Explains Why Dating Michael Jordan's Son Shouldn't Be A Problem

by Daryl Nelson

Larsa Pippen and Michael Jordan's son, Marcus Jordan, are hot and heavy these days. 

At first, Larsa — who was married to Michael's former NBA teammate Scottie Pippen — denied the relationship. But she eventually came clean and defended it.

She spoke about Marcus on The Tamron Hall Show and explained why there shouldn't be any controversy about dating him. Larsa is 48 and Marcus is 32, by the way.

“I personally don’t really care about other people out here," she said. "I feel like I live my truth. I’m happy. I feel like we get along. He’s my best friend. And so as your best friend, I feel like we have a lot in common ... I didn’t plan it like that … I think we were just together a lot with our friends and it just so happened." 

"You got to remember, I feel like for me being you know, married to someone that was an athlete or whatever, it’s really hard," Larsa added. "You get scrutinized a lot. People don’t think you should have a life once you get divorced. They think once you’re divorced, you’re, like, done.”
