The news of Marcus and Larsa’s potential engagement quickly caught the attention of fans and celebrities alike. Even the iconic Michael Jordan, Marcus’ father, expressed his curiosity about the same. Furthermore, the tweets of fans were noted for Marcus’ potential need for a Pippen in his love life, and the iconic partnership between Michael and Scottie Pippen on the basketball court.
They stated, “I Guess It Runs in the Family”. Larsa and Marcus’ engagement revelation, accompanied by fan reactions and historical references, has created a buzz.
Scottie Pippen deemed Michael Jordan a horrible player who would’ve been unsuccessful without him
Larsa Pippen, known for her appearances on “The Real Housewives of Miami,” has had her share of public attention due to her past relationship. She was previously married to Scottie Pippen, a former teammate of Michael Jordan’s.
The couple divorced in 2021 after over two decades of marriage. Her connection with Marcus Jordan began in 2019 when they met at a Los Angeles party. Their public appearances together in 2022 fueled speculation about their relationship. Which became official on Instagram at the start of the year.
Interestingly, Larsa Pippen’s previous marriage to Scottie Pippen adds a layer of complexity to her connection with Marcus Jordan. Scottie, a key player in the Chicago Bulls during their championship era, has been candid about his belief that Michael Jordan’s success would have been limited without him.
Scottie and Michael were one of the best duos on the court, and their friendship off the court was commendable. However, the two stopped talking and the gap between their relations soon took an ugly turn. With the release of the documentary “The Last Dance“, Scottie candidly spoke about how the focus is mainly on Michael rather than the team which helped to win championships.
