Just in January of 2024, the star pairing made an appearance on the second season of ‘The Traitors.’ Marcus Jordan, during an interview about the show, suggested that their strong bond might have stirred jealousy among fellow contestants.

The whispers of a budding romance between Larsa and Marcus started in September 2022 and by January 2023, the couple officially confirmed their relationship. Soon, the duo were under the scrutiny of the public eye, facing criticism. The 16-year age gap between Larsa and Marcus became a talking point, as did the entanglement with the dramatic history involving Larsa’s ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, and Marcus’ father, Michael Jordan.

Despite the controversies though, their love and bond remained unbroken. Following this, Larsa and Marcus started their joint podcast, ‘Separation Anxiety’ to talk about their relationship. However, their happiness was short-lived when the Chicago Bulls legend Jordan publicly expressed his disapproval with a simple statement, “No.”

The couple continued to weather storms of criticism, particularly for their public displays of affection (PDA). Despite the challenges, Larsa and Marcus remained steadfast, creating even more confusion about their alleged split. Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.
