Michael Jordan just made his possible future daughter-in-law look awful in public.
The NBA legend humiliated his son, Marcus Jordan, and his girlfriend, Larsa Pippen, with a simple gesture.
TMZ photographers and reporters caught up with Michael Jordan as he was leaving a restaurant in Paris, and they bombarded him with questions about his son’s dating life.
Marcus Jordan has been in a steamy romance with Larsa Pippen. The relationship is fascinating on many levels. Marcus Jordan is 32, and Larsa Pippen is 48.
Larsa Pippen was married to Scottie Pippen who played with Michael Jordan for the Chicago Bulls. The basketball stars were iconic teammates back in the day.
While exiting the fancy eatery, the billionaire businessman was asked if he had any thoughts on the May-December relationship.
The paparazzo asked: “Hey, Mr. Jordan, what do you think about Marcus and Larsa Pippen together? Do you approve of it?”
The retired athlete laughed and responded with a loud and firm, “No!” According to the viral video, Jordan then shook his head and his upper body as he was asked again, “You don’t approve?”
Michael Jordan might have just called out Larsa Pippen for a massive lie she told in an interview with Tamron Hall.
Recently, The Real Housewives of Miami star sat down with Hall for a fiery interview. Hall did not hold back and asked Larsa Pippen why she is dating a man who is younger than her.
The Texan reporter also asked the mother of four why she started a romance with Marcus Jordan when it is well-documented that Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen had a complex relationship.
Hall asked: “I think for people, the age thing is secondary. The thing is — you are a beautiful woman. You can date anyone you want to. Why would you date Michael Jordan’s son, knowing that it’s been pretty clear that Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan didn’t have this relationship people thought and certainly don’t have it now?”
Larsa Pippen made this false claim: “It’s not about my parents; it’s about his parents. They’re all happy. Our whole family’s fine.”
About the age difference, she had this explanation: “[Scottie] has a right to the way he feels … I live my truth, and I’m happy. It wasn’t like it was planned, we were just together a lot with our friends, and it just so happened.”
On the Separation Anxiety podcast, Marcus Jordan also claimed that the families were okay with the romance.
He claimed: “I don’t think there were ever any hurdles; I just think there was some shock value to the fact that we were dating. I caught maybe some people on my side of the family off guard a little bit.”
Jordan and Pippen have talked about marriage and even having a child together, so this is about to become awkward, with MJ stating that he is not backing any of it.
