Larsa Pippen And Michael Jordan's Son Spotted Looking Cozy On Date In NY

Reality star Larsa Pippen was seen with Marcus Jordan, the son of legendary basketball star, Michael Jordan, barely a year after officially ending things with Scottie Pippen. Larsa and Scottie previously filed for divorce from each other in 2016; however, they reconciled briefly.

After failing to repair their marriage, Larsa filed for divorce once again in November 2018 and brought their two decades of marriage to an end. Despite filing their divorce in 2018, the couple stayed separated and did not finalize their divorce until January this year.

Larsa was recently spotted with Marcus looking very much involved with each other in a restaurant in NYC. According to reports, the two were together; however, they are trying to keep the relationship low-key due to Scottie's current strained relationship with Michael.

Larsa is officially moving on to a new love interest months after finalizing her divorce with Scottie, her ex-husband. According to Us Weekly, a source revealed that the lovebirds spent the past few weeks together but were trying to keep their relationship on the low for now.

"Marcus and Larsa are dating and have been spending more time together in recent weeks," the insider said. "They are trying to keep it on the down low because of the rift between Scottie and Michael."

The former friends and fellow Chicago Bulls members are reportedly on bad terms. Micheal and Scottie had a tight relationship during their time with the NBA team in the 80s and 90s; however, the release of Michael's Netflix docuseries changed the relationship dynamic.

Michael released his Netflix docuseries, "The Last Dance," in April 2020. The series revisited the NBA icon's rise to fame in the world of basketball and the 1997 season of the Bulls. However, in Scottie's "Unguarded" memoir, which he released in November 2021, the 56-year-old accused Michael of not according enough recognition to him and the rest of the teammates.

"They glorified Michael Jordan while not giving nearly enough praise to me and my proud teammates," the former pro basketballer wrote. "Michael deserved a large portion of the blame. The producers had granted him editorial control of the final product. The doc couldn't have been released otherwise. He was the leading man and the director."

Scottie continued, "I had expected much more. When I was first told about it over a year earlier, I couldn't wait to tune in, knowing it would feature rare footage."

According to an eyewitness per Us Weekly, Larsa and Marcus were seen on Tuesday at the Catch Steak in New York having an intimate dinner. The source revealed that the lovebirds looked "very cuddled up" enough that it became a spectacle to onlookers.

"They are definitely an item. As the night progressed, it was obvious to everyone in the restaurant that she was really into him," the insider said.

They continued, "She was hugging and kissing him, and she was practically sitting on his lap by the end of the dinner. It became a bit of a spectacle to onlookers as it was quite distracting."

Larsa and Scottie finalized their divorce in January after filming the split as far back as November 2018. The duo reportedly almost separated in 2016 after the former NBA star filed for a divorce; however, they decided to work things out shortly after. The reconciliation obviously did not work out, hence the second filing.

After the split, the Larsa Marie designer revealed that the former couple were still friendly and would continue to co-parent their children, 21-year-old Scottie Jr., Preston, 20, 17-year-old Justin, and 13-year-old Sophia. The 48-year-old also emphasized that despite the split, the family still came first for the couple.

Larsa also previously spoke to Us Weekly in January concerning her love life, revealing that athletes mostly surrounded her.

"It's almost like a nurse and a doctor — if you're a nurse and you've worked in a hospital, you're more likely to like have friends that are doctors," the reality star said. "So, I feel like I've been in the basketball world for so long that I feel like I'm just surrounded by that world. It's not like I go look for it. It's just there, you know?"
