Marcus Jordan and Larsa PippenTheir relationship seems to be on the mend, as they were spotted together on Valentine’s Day. They reportedly broke up because of tensions that began after her father, Michael Jordan, said he disapproved of their relationship, but Marcus claimed he was joking.
His statement caused controversy because Larsa had previously said their parents supported their relationship and were happy for them. Their relationship is also in the news because of the long-standing beef between her ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, and Michael. Larsa and Scottie have settled their divorce and share custody of their four children.

Marcus and Larsa seem to be working on their relationship, as they were seen spending Valentine’s Day together. According to a photo published by a news channel, Marcus and Larsa spent the day walking around openly and even visited a flower shop, Trias Flowers & Gifts, in Miami, Florida.
Marcus and Larsa openly display their romance as they walk together. The “Real Housewives of Miami” star wore sunglasses, a red sports bra and matching leggings, while Marcus sported a white shirt, eyeshadow, hat and fan pack.
As they left the store, the couple carried a vase of two dozen roses and were followed by paparazzi back to their home. The holiday comes just days after it was confirmed that the couple had called it quits.

Larsa Pippen & Marcus Jordan Reportedly Split Because of Her Father

On Monday, various sources told Page Six that Marcus and Larsa had broken up after about a year of dating. A source claimed the split was due to “tension” caused by Michael over his statements about their relationship last year.
While talking to the paparazzi, Michael “openly” criticized the couple and refused to explain his statement. The source said, “Marcus said Michael was joking when he said he didn’t agree, but it really embarrassed Larsa.”
However, another source claimed that the breakup actually had “nothing to do with any family input, but purely for their personal growth.” They explained that Marcus and Larsa decided to “take some time” to reconsider their relationship, not because of Michael.
Larsa apparently confirmed her breakup with Marcus by removing all photos of them together from her Instagram earlier this week and unfollowing him as well. However, just before they were spotted on their Valentine’s florist date, Larsa followed him back on Instagram.
Larsa Pippen Claims Their Parents Are Supportive

Michael’s dismissal of their relationship was highly controversial because of Larsa’s statement made during a February interview on the “Tamron Hall Show.”
At the time, the Bravolebrity claimed that she and Marcus were happy and had the support of their parents and family.
He said, “I think we’re in a great place. We motivate each other. We are really happy together. And I think that’s the most important thing.”
Larsa stated that at the time, both of their parents wanted them to be “happy” and supported the romance. He added, “We have spent the holidays together, and it was good. We are in a good place.”
Despite not having Michael’s public support, Larsa has endless support from her husband. Marcus has defended her several times against the “gold digger” accusations that she is only dating him for his money. She said the allegations against her made no sense because she was “an independent, career-driven woman.”

The source further claimed that Marcus and Larsa’s strained relationship was also exacerbated by Michael’s longstanding feud with another NBA icon, Scottie Pippen, who is Larsa’s ex-husband. The insider said, “The history between Michael and Scottie made things complicated, although Larsa and Marcus did their best to make it a non-issue.”
The source said the couple needs to put family first because it “comes before everything else.” They said, “At the end of the day, Michael is Marcus’ father, and Scottie is the father of Larsa’s children.” Scottie and Larsa share four children: Scottie Jr., Preston, Justin, and Sophia.
Michael and Scottie have had their beef for years and regularly throw jabs at each other. During a recent appearance on Stacey King’s “Gimme The Hot Sauce” podcast, Scottie blasted Michael while praising LeBron James. He said Michael was a “terrible player” until they ended up being teammates.
