Hollywood and the public at large have seen some unexpected celebrity couples emerge in the past few years, though a more recent pairing is certainly one for the books. And I’m not referring to Emily Ratajkowski and Eric André (who’ve since broken up). I’m referring to newly minted couple Marcus Jordan – the son of NBA great Michael Jordan – and Larsa Pippen – the ex-wife of Michael’s former teammate, Scottie Pippen. While I’m not sure many people would’ve put Marcus and Larsa together, they are indeed an item and have been steadily creating buzz. They haven’t been together quite a year yet, but their relationship has been filled with some key moments that we’re going to discuss.
Before we get into the specifics though, I’d be remiss if I didn’t acknowledge the fact that this romance emerged during a very interesting time. Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen aren’t exactly on the best of terms right now. The two hall of farmers have been engaged in a feud – one that’s only seen Pippen throw jabs. He was unhappy with Jordan’s handling of acclaimed docuseries The Last Dance, which centered on the Bulls’ final championship run. Pippen hasn’t minced words on the show or his former friend, claiming that Air Jordan ruined the game of basketball and was a “horrible” player.
