Marcus Jordan, the son of NBA legend Michael Jordan, finds himself under the scrutiny of the public eye due to his recent rollercoaster with his girlfriend Larsa Pippen.
The drama began during Super Bowl LVIII night in February 2024 when eagle-eyed fans noticed Larsa Pippen deleting photos of herself and Marcus from her Instagram, sparking rumors of a breakup.
Adding fuel to the fire, Larsa Pippen took to Instagram with a poll asking, “Should your friends unfollow your ex?” and shared a cryptic quote about choosing a partner “wisely.”
In a subsequent story, Pippen addressed the speculation, stating, “I think relationships are challenging, we live in three different places, and I feel like we never broke, by the way, guys. We didn’t break up. We kind of needed to take a beat, gather our thoughts, and see if this relationship, you know, what’s gonna happen in the future.”
However, just when everyone thought it was the end, the couple made a Valentine’s Day comeback.

However, not everyone is convinced. Real Housewives of Miami stars Alexia Nepola and Marysol Patton accused Larsa Pippen of setting up the breakup and labeled it a scam on their podcast, Ay Por Favor.
According to Patton, “Everybody knows it’s staged.” This fueled the controversy further.
In an attempt to set the record straight, Larsa Pippen addressed the accusations on the “Two Ts In A Pod” podcast with hosts Teddi Mellencamp and Tamra Judge.
Pippen vehemently denied the allegations, saying:
“We didn’t break up. We kind of needed to take a beat, gather our thoughts, and see if this relationship, you know, what’s gonna happen in the future.”
She added:
“It was like it’s been a lot of time together, and like this was the point of like either we’re gonna be together and get engaged or start looking at the next phase or breakup.”
Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan went Instagram official in January 2023. The controversy around their split comes less than a year after their highly publicized affair!
