AceShowbiz - Larsa Pippen has dished her future plans if she ties the knot with her boyfriend Marcus Jordan. The former wife of Scottie Pippen has confirmed that she will "definitely" change her last name if she marries the son of Michael Jordan.
During the second installment of "The Real Housewives of Miami" reunion, the 48-year-old reality star addressed if she would hyphenate her name if she and her 32-year-old beau got married. "I would definitely change my last name for whomever I married, that's for sure," so she shared.
Larsa played coy when answering if she had hung out with Marcus's father, NBA legend M.J., who played alongside her ex-husband Scottie on the Chicago Bulls in the '80s and '90s. The former professional basketball players had a notable falling out after ESPN's 2020 docuseries "The Last Dance".
"I mean, I don't really want to talk about.. I want to talk about Marcus and I," said Larsa, who married Scottie in 1997 and split from him in 2021. "I feel like I'm comfortable talking about Marcus and I."
When asked by host Andy Cohen about the "unusual" dynamic caused by dating Marcus, she explained, "I feel like a lot of people don't understand, like, I didn't know him." She went on elaborating, "I just met him a few years ago. I never met him before. I was with Scottie the very last year that he played with Michael. Michael and his wife were going through a divorce, so I never met his wife, never met his kids. It wasn't like we had families that were intertwined. I never knew them."
Larsa made her relationship with Marcus Instagram official in January with a loved-up photo of the couple. Earlier this month, the couple was seen looking happy while seemingly browsing for an engagement ring in New York City.
More recently, Larsa and Marcus were caught locking lips during a romantic beach date. The pair looked completely smitten as they stepped out on the sands together before enjoying a refreshing dip.
