Is Larsa Pippen's dating life overshadowing her achievements as a businesswoman and mother?

Scottie Pippen’s ex-wife made headlines when she began dating Marcus Jordan. But that’s not all about the reality TV actress. The mother of four has managed her house, kids, and business and is so much more than just a celebrity spouse and mother. She has always stood out for her personality, which is influenced by her culture, roots, and upbringing.

However, when Larsa stepped into the reality TV show game, fans were interested in her family and ethnicity. Even more so when she began dating Michael Jordan’s son, Marcus Jordan. She is an Assyrian-American socialite. The actress has roots in Lebanon, thanks to her mother, and Syria, where her father hails from.

It’s very rare that the Chicago Bulls legend’s ex-wife talks about her family. When she does, Larsa ensures to show them the same love and respect. She has always appreciated her father for giving her the best. In her podcast, she once shared how her father treated her like a princess, giving her everything that she asked for as she grew up in Chicago.

Just a few days ago, Larsa shared several of her childhood pictures with her fans. In most of the pictures of her as a toddler, she had a short haircut. In another picture, she wore a ruffled white outfit with golden hoop earrings.

After her marriage with Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen, she gave birth to her four kids, Preston, Scotty, Justin, and Sophia. While the two began to have differences back in 2016, the two tried to save their relationship. Then in 2021, the two officially broke their relationship.

Following this, the actress dated several celebrities and reportedly, Malik Beasley was also one of them. However, the world was almost turned upside down when she dated Marcus. Despite the criticism, they were going strong. The two even had a joint podcast, Separation Anxiety. And in this podcast, both Marcus and Larsa spoke about each other’s families.

Have an interesting take?

Larsa has an adorable relationship with her mother. On her mother’s birthday, the actress penned a sweet message for her, showing her love. “Hbd mom❤️❤️❤️love you so much,” Larsa wrote. However, there was something that initially disturbed her. Larsa once shared how her mother sabotaged her relationships.

“My mom used to be before my ex. My mom used to sabotage every relationship I had” said Larsa. What does that statement mean?” Larsa admitted. 

In a podcast, she also revealed that both her and Marcus’ families were initially against their relationship due to the age gap. However, later, the two families agreed. This led to the famous incident where a reporter asked Jordan if he approved of their relationship, and the Chicago Bulls legend simply said ‘no.’

Larsa dated Marcus for more than a year before their breakup in early 2024. Their relationship received a lot of public attention. Now, she feels that she wants to keep her relationships private, as she believes it’s hard to truly understand a partner when there’s too much public attention. Hence, for now, all she wants to do is build herself and her career.

In an interview with Page Six’s ‘Virtual Reali-Tea,’ she said, “I think from my last relationship, it was so public that I think in this chapter of my life, I want to keep certain things to myself.” “I think I want to get to know people, go on dates, and then once I figure it out, you know, the vibe with the person, then maybe [I’ll] be open to sharing,” she explained.
