It appears that Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan have decided not to proceed with their plans for marriage. The reality TV personality and former college basketball star have reportedly ended their relationship after a year of dating. Sources confirmed the breakup to People magazine following circulating rumors over the weekend. A representative for Pippen did not immediately respond to The Times’ request for confirmation.
Speculation regarding the status of their relationship arose on Instagram, where observant users noticed that Pippen and Jordan had unfollowed each other and removed photos documenting their time together. Pippen, who was previously married to NBA star Scottie Pippen, contributed to the speculation with a couple of since-deleted Instagram stories seemingly directed at her former partner.
In one Instagram poll shared on Sunday, Pippen questioned whether friends should unfollow their exes. In another story posted on Monday, Pippen reshared a message advising individuals to carefully consider the choice of partner, emphasizing the impact on various aspects of life, including mental health and child-rearing.

Pippen, aged 49, and Jordan, the son of basketball icon Michael Jordan, publicly announced their relationship in January 2023 after years of friendship. Throughout the past year, they were seen together at various public events, such as the Rolling Loud music festival in New York.
Towards the end of 2023, Pippen and Jordan, who is also the founder of luxury retail brand Trophy Room, seemed to be in a strong relationship. In August, Jordan, aged 33, expressed intentions to propose, mentioning to TMZ that they were scouting locations. Pippen echoed this sentiment in December, expressing confidence that Jordan would orchestrate a memorable proposal.
In addition to their personal relationship, Pippen and Jordan have appeared together on television shows such as “The Real Housewives of Miami” and the latest season of Peacock’s “The Traitors.” During a January episode of “Real Housewives,” Jordan discussed his role in supporting Pippen and her three children from her previous marriage, emphasizing his desire to be a supportive presence in their lives rather than a secondary parent.
The certainty of Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan’s future as a couple remains uncertain. However, Bravo host Andy Cohen expressed his intention to reunite with the former partners soon and delve into the details of their separation. Cohen disclosed his plans to host the “Traitors” reunion on his Radio Andy show, suggesting that this event might provide insights into the reasons behind Pippen and Jordan’s split. He anticipates their presence at the reunion will offer an opportunity to gather information about their relationship dynamics and subsequent fallout.
