RHOM’s Larsa Pippen Shares When She Realized Marcus Jordan Was The One
In an interview, RHOM’s Larsa Pippen delves into her romance with Marcus Jordan who is sixteen years her junior.
The 48-year-old confessed that she intended to keep their friendship platonic even though they went on dates.
Larsa, who is not new to commitment— she was formerly married to Scottie Pippen, said her initial plans failed because her heart took control.
She realized Jordan could not be in the BFF corner for long, especially after feeling overwhelmed with jealousy. In her words:
“I think it was one night we went out and there was a girl that was there. She was trying to talk to him, and I was getting jealous over it.”
This came as a shock to the onscreen star who defined herself as the not-jealous-type. However, it only fueled her interest in Jordan. On Valentine’s Day, Larsa gushed about her beau calling him “My forever Valentine.”
RHOM’s Larsa Pippen reiterated this feeling by comparing her past relationship with her present. Without holding back, Pippen admitted she always faulted her former lovers.
But with Marcus, things are perfect. “I like everything about him,” she mused, before noting that she loves being led by an intentional man in a relationship.
Apart from having Mr. Right lead her, she feels excited to play her role of understanding him. Speaking about his appearance next to her onscreen, she shared:
“I don’t want to put too much pressure on him. I feel like he signed up for me.”
Amid her new love life with the younger Jordan, son of Michael Jordan (Michael and Scottie played on the same team in the 90s) the exes do not talk about it.
Scottie who was married to Larsa for years and shares four kids with her has not shown interest in her romance.
According to the mother-of-four, they are more focused on co-parenting and typically their attention revolves around the kids.
