*Larsa Pippen says Michael Jordan‘s recent comments on her relationship with his son Marcus left her feeling “embarrassed” and “traumatized.”
As we reported previously, TMZ spotted MJ in Paris leaving dinner at Matignon when a pap asked the question we all wanna know: “Hey, Mr. Jordan, what do you think about Marcus and Larsa Pippen together? You approve of it?” MJ laughed and responded, “No!”
Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife reacted to Jordan’s remarks on the newest episode of her and Marcus’ “Separation Anxiety” podcast.
“I can’t be mad. I understand. [But] Oh my God, I was traumatized,” Pippen said, People reports.
Marcus said he found his father’s comment amusing.
“I know my dad, and obviously my whole family, we’re so competitive, part of our DNA is to talk s—, it gets us going and gets us motivated. And when I saw it immediately I thought, ‘He’s playing.’ He’s joking, he’s laughing. He’s just being playful, he’s a little lit, maybe off the Socorro [tequila],” Marcus said on the podcast.
Marcus also noted that he understood why MJ’s remarks made Larsa “a little nervous.”
“I kind of felt like it went everywhere and I was kind of like embarrassed,” she said on the podcast.
The couple unpacks their relationship on the podcast and defends their 16-year age gap.
“I just feel like we meet somewhere in the middle. Age is just a number, but I think maturity and life experience really dictate the relationship,” Marcus said in a joint interview with Larsa for E! News.
“Everything we do, we have in common. We like the same things, we like to go to the same places. I feel like for us, it’s very natural to be with each other. I don’t really see the age part of it,” Larsa added.
