Larsa Pippen probably thought the limelight was off her and her partner Marcus Jordan after a tumultuous week for their relationship.
That was until she was seen attending a stand-up comedy show with her boyfriend, and the 49-year-old’s night of entertainment on Miami Beach quickly turned super awkward for the couple.
Comedian Greg Romero Wilson had been made aware Pippen was in the crowd with her partner Marcus, who is 32 and the son of NBA icon Michael Jordan.
There have been rumors that six-time NBA champion Jordan did not approve of the relationship at first, while Larsa is also the ex-wife of the former Chicago Bulls star Scottie Pippen.
And the delivery of Wilson‘s joke must have left Larsa wanting to make a quick exit after he roasted her with a thinly-veiled dig at their divisive relationship.
“Larsa Pippen is here with Marcus Jordan,” Wilson told the crowd in a video obtained by TMZ Sports.
“Listen, you’re a legend. You’re the only person that’s ever managed to f*** up both Scottie Pippen and Michael Jordan at the same time.”
The joker reportedly prompted some awkward laughs from the audience, but Wilson wasn’t done as he dragged Larsa‘s name even further with a basketball reference.
“You’re basically the greatest New York Knick of all time,” he said, addressing Pippen. “You should be in their ring of honor. They owe you – the only one who could do it.”
A family feud
It was widely reported that Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa and Jordan had decided to call it quits due to the tension between his father and Scottie.
The couple have been together for over a year and hit a rocky patch, with Page Six quoting insiders close to them who claimed they had broken up.
The decision from NBA legend Michael Jordan to speak out publicly about his disapproval reportedly left Larsa ‘mortified’, while Scottie is not keen on her relationship due to his feud with his former Bulls team-mate.
The mother-of-four seemingly confirmed their brief split by removing all photos with Marcus from her Instagram and unfollowing him earlier this week. However, Larsa re-followed her beau right before they went out on Valentine’s Day and they were later seen sharing a kiss.
