Marcus Jordan is in Paris for the fashion week with Larsa Pippen. Michael Jordan’s 33-year-old son has turned MJ’s escape sanctuary into a luxury getaway with his girlfriend. Marcus recently posted some visuals of the place he is staying at, and it is luxury of the highest standard, to say the least.

Although Marcus is in Paris for the Paris Fashion Week, the place used to be an escape for his father, especially after he reached global icon status during his career.

Marcus posted clips from his hotel room on his Instagram story. Larsa can be seen with the 33-year-old in the clip as he flexes his envious lifestyle to his social media fans. During a recent interview, Marcus revealed that he will be traveling to Paris with Larsa for the fashion week. In addition to that, he is also currently starring in the second season of the reality show, The Traitors, alongside his girlfriend. While the couple was excited about their new show, days after the first episode aired, they are off for a getaway.

Michael Jordan’s Paris connection

Very few people in the world have experienced the Michael Jordan level of fame. Although it looks really good from the outside, based on the stories of celebrities, being famous is extremely restrictive as well. The bigger you are, the more attention there is on you and that diminishes your chances of having a normal life. This is what Michael Jordan suffered from and still does. So, for Marcus to find some peace in his world full of chaos, Paris was his go-to spot.

David Halberstam, in his New York Times bestseller book, ‘Playing for Keeps: Michael Jordan and the World He Made,’ explained why MJ was so fond of the place. He wrote, “There had been a time when Michael Jordan had regarded France as a kind of sanctuary, a place where he could vacation and escape the burden of his fame.” However, that didn’t last long as well because MJ’s rising fame caught up with that part of the world as well. “His appearance on the Olympic Dream Team five years earlier and his subsequent mounting international fame had ended that. His gross income had more than doubled, but he had lost Paris”, he continued.
