Marcus Jordan Hints at Engagement to Larsa Pippen

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan just might be headed to the altar. On Aug. 16, 32-year-old Marcus, who is Michael Jordan’s second-oldest child, told a TMZ videographer while leaving a West Hollywood restaurant that a wedding was “in the works” for him and 49-year-old Pippen. “We’re looking for a location,” he added.

Pippen and Marcus were first linked in September 2022, and they made things Instagram official in January. Since then, they’ve posted a number of cute photos together. In several recent pictures, Pippen appears to be wearing a large ring on her left ring finger, hinting that Marcus may have popped the question already.

In July 2023, though, their relationship made waves when a TMZ photographer asked Michael if he approved of his son’s relationship with Pippen. “No,” Michael replied. Marcus and Pippen later addressed his father’s comment in a July episode of their podcast “Separation Anxiety with Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan,” and Marcus clarified that his dad’s statement was a joke. “I know my dad, and obviously my whole family, we’re so competitive. Part of our DNA is to talk sh*t – it gets us going and gets us motivated,” he said. “And when I saw it immediately I thought, ‘He’s playing. He’s joking, he’s laughing. He’s just being playful.'” Meanwhile, Pippen admitted that she was “embarrassed” by the whole thing, while Marcus insisted that his dad has nothing against them as a couple.

Before dating Marcus, Pippen was married to NBA star Scottie Pippen, who was Michael’s teammate for nearly 10 years during their time playing for the Chicago Bulls. She shares three children with Scottie, whom she separated from in 2016, according to E! News.
