![EXCLUSIVE: Bikini-clad Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan go public with their relationship for the first time while strolling with arms entwined on the beach in Miami. The 48-year-old Real Housewives of Miami star showed off her curves in a black bikini while walking from the ocean with Jordan, the 31-year-old son of basketball legend Michael. Larsa, married for 23 years to Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls teammate Scotty Pippen, has previously said her and Marcus were simply ‘friends’. But on Sunday the loved-up couple were seen making out under a beach umbrella. They walked in front of other bathers with their arms around each other while soaking up the sun on South Beach. At one point, Marcus could be seen gently nuzzling Larsa’s shoulder. “I have a lot of friends," she was reported as saying a month ago. “I mean, I'm very social. I was married for 23 years. This is the time for me to really, like, hone in on my relationships, so that’s kind of what I’m doing." But it seems their relationship has moved on a notch since then. Larsa and ex-Scottie were married from 1997 to 2021 — finalizing their divorce in December, though they split three years earlier. They share four children — Scotty Jr., 21, Preston, 20, and Justin, 17, and daughter Sophia, 14 — and remain close. 13 Nov 2022 Pictured: Larsa Pippen; Marcus Jordan.

![EXCLUSIVE: Sealed with a kiss! Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan confirm their romance is ON as they share a smooch in Miami Beach. Until now, the 48-year-old 'Real Housewives of Miami' star has been coy about her relationship with the son of NBA legend Michael Jordan. But it looks like she and the 32-year-old are officially a couple, after a cute PDA outside the upscale W South Beach hotel on Saturday. They held hands and were all smiles as they left the beachfront venue, with Larsa showing off her famous curves in a black Jean Paul Gaultier bodysuit with racy leather hot pants and Chanel slides. Her beau, who slung his arm around her shoulders as they waited for their car, was casual in all black and carried his laptop bearing the famous Jordan logo. The much talked about duo certainly appeared to be cosy and relaxed in each other's company amid swirling speculation about their romance. 07 Jan 2023 Pictured: Larsa Pippen, Marcus Jordan.

Larsa Pippen is already thinking about the future with Marcus Jordan, the 32-year-old son of retired Hall of Fame basketball player Michael Jordan, in the cutest way! During the second part of The Real Housewives of Miami Season 5 reunion, Larsa, 48, was asked if she would hyphenate her name if she and Marcus got hitched, and she had an easy answer. “I would definitely change my last name for whomever I married, that’s for sure,” she confirmed.
Larsa has been dating Marcus for at least a few months, and was first spotted with him in Sept. 2022. Their relationship has certainly turned heads, as Michael Jordan, 60, used to play on the Chicago Bulls alongside Larsa’s ex-husband, Scottie Pippen, in the ’80s and ’90s. The former teammates are not friends, however, due to Scottie’s disapproval of how he was portrayed in ESPN’s 2020 docuseries The Last Dance, which follows Michael’s final season with the Chicago Bulls in the 1997 – 1998 season.

Larsa was asked about her relationship with Michael during the Real Housewives of Miami Season 5 reunion, but declined to comment. “I mean, I don’t really want to talk about — I want to talk about Marcus and I,” she told host Andy Cohen. “I feel like I’m comfortable talking about Marcus and I.”
When pressed about the “unusual” dynamic, she stressed that she never knew Marcus while she was with Scottie, whom she divorced in Jan. 2022 after three years of separation. “I just met him a few years ago. I never met him before,” she explained. “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.”

As mentioned above, Larsa and Marcus were first spotted together in September as they dined at Miami’s popular restaurant, Zuma. After a few months of speculation and even some public hand-holding, a person close to the couple confirmed they are indeed an item. “It is still casual and they’re having fun,” they told PEOPLE in January. “She’s trying her best to keep it quiet and not make a big deal out of it. They see each other at least a few times a week.”
