The reality star, 48, told People that Jordan, 32, will only be on the Peacock show “a little bit” because she doesn’t want her TV career to get in the way of their budding relationship.

“I don’t want to put too much pressure on him. I feel like he signed up for me,” she explained.

“I don’t think he signed up for the show, but I do feel like we’re together now, and if there’s events and there’s stuff he would normally go with me, so he’d come there, too.”

Pippen also admitted she started dating the son of NBA legend Michael Jordan after feeling jealous about seeing another woman flirting with him.

“I think it was one night we went out, and there was a girl that was there. She was trying to talk to him, and I was getting jealous over it,” she recalled. “And it was weird because I’m not really the jealous person, but I was jealous over the situation.”

She added, “And so then, I was thinking, ‘Maybe I do really like him.’ That kind of sealed the deal.”

Pippen shared that she and Marcus initially “had a great foundation as friends” after meeting at a party in Los Angeles four years ago.

“I do feel like timing is everything, and it started off just getting to know each other, and then, here we are,” she said.

Marcus is the first man the Bravolebrity has fallen for since finalizing her divorce from Scottie Pippen, Michael’s former Chicago Bulls teammate, in December 2021.

“For me, I just could never be open and open to different guys,” she told the magazine. “I would find faults in every guy. … I had all these quirky things, and then low and behold, Marcus drops down from heaven. And I’m like, I like everything about him.”

Larsa is even willing to go to great lengths to please her beau.

“I feel like I always joke around, and I say, ‘Oh, my God, if Marcus told me to color my hair green, I’m going to do it,’” she joked. “Just because I feel like I have to make him happy because he makes me so happy.”

She added, “The thing with me is this, I like to be led [in relationships], but I haven’t trusted anyone to lead me until now.”

Rumors first started swirling that the couple were dating in September 2022 when they were spotted on what appeared to be a double date at Zuma in Miami. At the time, sources claimed that they were just friends.

But after continuously showing PDA, they went Instagram-official in January. They also celebrated their romance in a sweet Valentine’s Day post.

Earlier this week, Larsa revealed she has also gotten to know her boyfriend’s famous father.

“I’ve recently been hanging out with them, but I don’t really want to talk about them. I feel like it’s not about, you know, my parents or his parents — they’re all happy; our whole family’s fine,” she said on “The Tamron Hall Show” Tuesday when asked whether she’d met Michael, 60, and his ex-wife, Juanita Vanoy.

“I feel like it’s more about where I am, where [Marcus] is,” she continued. “I feel like we’re in a great place. We motivate each other. We’re really happy being together. And I feel like that’s the most important thing.”

Larsa and Scottie, 57, share four children: Scotty Jr., 22, Preston, 21, Justin, 18, and Sophia, 14.
