Michael Jordan has finally broken his silence on his son's public romance with Larsa Pippen and it's clear that the NBA legend does not approve.
On Sunday night, Jordan was spotted leaving dinner at Matignon in Paris when a paparazzi asked him about his 32-year-old son Marcus dating the 48-year-old ex-wife of his former teammate and longtime enemy Scottie Pippen.
In a video shared by TMZ, Jordan can be seen laughing when the photographer asked him about Marcus and Larsa's relationship. But when the photog doubled down and asked if Jordan supports the romance, he loudly replied, “NO!”
This is the first time the Chicago Bulls legend has spoken on his son's relationship with Larsa and it seems he is not in support of who Marcus is dating. Fans sounded off after NBA Central reposted the video on Twitter. “He’s finally showed his distaste in that relationship publicly, took him a minute,” one fan wrote.
This is in stark contrast to what Larsa Pippen had said in February when she appeared on The Tamron Hall Show. She had claimed that both families were “happy” with their relationship, saying, “It’s not about my parents, his parents. They’re all happy. Our whole family’s fine.”
She had also talked about the nearly 20-year age difference between her and Marcus, as well as the animosity that exists between Marcus' dad and her ex-husband, who she shares four children with.
It's clear that Michael Jordan's response to his son's relationship with Larsa Pippen is far from happy. With all the different complexities involved between both families, it will be interesting to see how this situation will play out in the future.
