Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan age difference explored after Michael Jordan’s comments “traumatized” Pippen

Larsa Pippen has been in the news once again last week as Michael Jordan expressed his opinion about his son, Marcus Jordan, dating her. Reporters were given a resounding 'No' from the six-time NBA champion. Larsa said that she was 'traumatized' when the story broke out.

In the latest podcast of Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan entitled 'Separation Anxiety', the controversial couple - with an age difference of 17 years - discussed Michael Jordan's response. Marcus already knew that the news would come out as his father texted and called him up to make sure he didn't take it the wrong way.

Marcus said that he thought it was funny, as his dad was just playing, but Larsa told him that there was nothing funny about it.

All the while, Marcus knows that his father allows him to make his own decisions and date whomever he wants. Marcus didn't really put much weight on what happened, but he knows that Larsa is not comfortable.

"It probably is awkward for my ex and your dad because they have their own relationship, or whatever it was," said Larsa "I wasn't a part of that, and you weren't a part of that, so I feel like for them; it probably is weird. Oh my god, I was traumatized."
