Marcus Jordan GETS DUMPED By Larsa Pippen … GET DETAILS!!
After over a year of dating, Larsa Pippen and her boyfriend Marcus Jordan have ended their relationship.
An insider revealed to Us Weekly on Monday, February 12, that the couple, Larsa, 49, and Marcus, 33, have decided to part ways. This announcement arrived shortly after the Real Housewives of Miami star fueled rumors of a breakup by deleting all photographs with Marcus from her Instagram account. Observant followers quickly picked up on the fact that Marcus and Larsa had ceased following each other on the social media site.

On Super Bowl Sunday, February 11, Larsa added to the speculation by sharing a poll on her Instagram Story asking, “Should your friends unfollow your ex?” Meanwhile, Marcus spent the day with his father, NBA legend Michael Jordan, further highlighting the distance between the former couple.
The relationship between the couple started in September 2022, following sightings of them appearing intimate at Catch Steak in New York City.
Media Take Out had a conversation with a producer from Larsa’s popular series, The Real Housewives of Miami, who shared some insider information. The producer revealed that it was Larsa who made the decision to end the relationship.
“Larsa needs a man that’s a bit more mature and financially stable. Marcus was fun, but Larsa is looking for someone that she can build a life with.” The producer explained.
Marcus appears to be struggling significantly with the breakup. Marcus has unfollowed Larsa on social media, and he has been increasingly seeking the company of his father during this challenging period.
Meanwhile, Larsa is also stirring the pot regarding the breakup. She has taken to Instagram to express that she prefers her friends to cut ties with Marcus, sharing her stance openly.
At the onset of their relationship, the duo had been increasingly seen together but aimed to maintain a low profile due to the existing tension between her ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, and Marcus’ father, Michael Jordan, aged 60. The discord between the former Chicago Bulls players was publicly acknowledged following Scottie’s 2021 memoir, “Unguarded,” where he criticized the 2020 docuseries “The Last Dance” for overly glorifying Michael Jordan while ostensibly neglecting to adequately acknowledge him and his fellow teammates’ contributions.
Despite the complexities surrounding their association, the relationship between Larsa and Marcus evolved from a platonic friendship to a more intimate connection. In January 2023, an insider shared with Us that they had maintained a friendship for several years. Larsa felt extremely at ease with Marcus and consistently regarded him as an exceptional partner for anyone, highlighting the depth of their bond.
In June 2023, Marcus expressed to Us his appreciation for how well Larsa’s children — Scotty Jr., 22, Preston, 21, Justin, 18, and Sophia, 15, whom she shares with 57-year-old Scottie — welcomed him. However, in a revelation the following month, Michael Jordan admitted his disapproval of his son’s relationship with Larsa.
Marcus later explained in an episode of their “Separation Anxiety” podcast that his father’s disapproval was made in jest. Nonetheless, Larsa didn’t see the humor in the remark, stating, “I didn’t think it was funny. There’s nothing funny about it,” highlighting a clear difference in perception between the two regarding the comment.
In August 2023, Larsa and Marcus became the center of engagement rumors after Larsa was seen with a ring on her left hand. Marcus escalated the rumors with a comment in a TMZ video, suggesting they were “looking for a [wedding] location” and that plans were “in the works.” Further confirming the speculation, a source disclosed to the outlet that Marcus had presented Larsa with a promise ring, with discussions of marriage actively taking place between the two.
