Marcus Jordan and Larsa Pippen are going strong despite all the hate messages they have received. Initially, the couple kept their relationship a secret. Interestingly, Pippen also denied all such claims during an interview in which she mentioned that they were just friends.
However, they are now officially in a relationship. In fact, it seems that Jordan made the first move while he was on holiday in the Bahamas. This was revealed on the ‘It’s Getting Personal’ podcast featuring the two.
“You did”, said Larsa Pippen. Marcus Jordan immediately replied, “I beg to disagree. I was looking across the room, but we were looking at each other.”
He further added, “I definitely think I made the first move. I remember going to the Bahamas, taking a big group of friends, hit you with a DM, saying we are going to the Bahamas.”
One of their biggest criticisms has been their age gap. Jordan and Pippen have an age gap of 16 years. Moreover, their last names are also a major factor. After all, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen played for the Chicago Bulls for years together, winning six NBA titles.
