Larsa Pippen has continued to make headlines over the past year due to her relationship with Michael Jordan’s son Marcus. While the six-time NBA champion and Larsa Pippen don’t have much of a connection, despite Larsa dating Jordan’s son, the Real Housewives of Miami star did know Jordan’s ex-wife Juanita. This week, Juanita took to social media to share the news that Larsa sent her a bouquet of flowers.
Judging from the news, Jordan’s ex-wife Juanita has been dealing with some health issues. While little is known about the health issues she’s been experiencing, she did say she’s working hard to get back to 100 percent.

Considering Larsa Pippen’s awkward nature as the ex-wife of Michael Jordan’s former teammate, there has been quite a bit of publicity surrounding the relationship. Although there is a 16-year age difference between the two, they expressed that they are very affectionate.
There’s been a lot of speculation as to whether Larsa knew Marcus growing up, given the connection between the two families. Marcus Jordan was in elementary school when she married Scottie Pippen in 1997, but it sounds like the two families never hung out together.
Pippen spoke with Jana Kramer on “Whine Down,” where she discussed the relationship and explained that she knew Marcus’ mom, Juanita:
#advanceampads1#While fans have been wondering what Marcus’ parents think of the relationship, Juanita has yet to reveal it. Michael Jordan, on the other hand, made headlines earlier this year when he was asked if he agreed as he was leaving a restaurant.
The Hall of Famer simply said, “No!” Video of the situation went viral. However, since then, Marcus Jordan explained on his and Larsa’s “Separation Anxiety” podcast that he and his dad have discussed things and he does approve of the relationship.
As Larsa explained, from the sounds of the couple’s parents, they just want them to be happy.
