*Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife Larsa Pippen is speaking out about her romance with Michael Jordan’s son Marcus Jordan.
The 48-year-old “Real Housewives of Miami” star opened up about dating Marcus, 32, during an appearance on the “Tamron Hall” show on Tuesday. Pippen said her young lover’s NBA star father, as well as Marcus’ mother Juanita Vanoy, are not bothered by their son’s relationship with an older woman.
“They’re all happy, our whole family is fine,” she said.
“When you’re an adult, I think your parents just want to see you happy,” Pippen told Hall. “My parents want to see me happy, his parents want to see him happy.”

Pippen explained that she and Jordan have “a lot of common ground” despite their 16-year age difference.
Hall asked, “Even with the age difference? I don’t wanna say that flippantly, because men are able to date people 30 years younger without judgment. But he’s 16 years younger — other than the Bulls, what do you have in common?”
Pippen pointed out… “I’ve dated guys that were a lot older than me. Scottie is 10 years older than me.”
Pippen said she doesn’t “view age as you’re mature or immature. I don’t feel like that determines if you’re mature or not. I feel like if you can drink at 21, then you can go to war at 18. I feel like there are different circumstances that I feel like age doesn’t really determine your level of maturity.”
The mother of four also revealed that she spent the holidays with Marcus’ family. “It’s good, we’re in a great place,” she said.
Larsa and Marcus have known each other for years through their families. Dating rumors had been swirling for months before they publicly announced their relationship on Instagram in January.
The former NBA wife shares four children with Scottie Pippen. The ex-couple wed in 1997 and divorced in 2021. Scottie and Michael Jordan famously played together on the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s.
