Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen

It doesn’t take a genius to see that Scottie Pippen‘s ex-wife Larsa Pippen is involved with Michael Jordan‘s son Marcus. Reports say the pair have been involved for a while and it has definitely raised some eyebrows.

First of all, it’s the age difference. Pippen is 16 years older than the younger Jordan. But most important and obvious to everyone is how awkward the situation is given the relationship, or lack thereof, between Scottie and the elder Jordan.

The two haven’t had much to do with each other since their days with the Chicago Bulls but all of that came to a head when the docuseries The Last Dance came out.

It was clear that the two stars had a strained relationship on and off the court and to see his ex-wife dating his nemesis son, has to be weird to the both of them.

For her part, Larsa Pippen doesn’t see the problem. Pippen, who is part of the cast of the Real Housewives of Miami talked about her “friendship” with Jordan on the Bravo show Watch What Happens Live.

“I mean, I guess, yeah. I think a lot of people think our families are really close and intertwined, and they really weren’t,” Larsa said. “I never really knew Marcus’ mom or them. I just recently met them like a couple of years ago.”

It will be interesting to see how both Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan react to this relationship. So far both have been mum.
