Fresh star stories with a cool online feel.

Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan's relationship was a surprise to many fans, but it seems that Marcus' famous father, Michael Jordan, may not be totally in support of the couple's romance. The duo talked about the issue on their "Separation Anxiety" podcast. "I don't think there was ever any hurdles, I just think there was some shock value to the fact that we were dating. Caught maybe some people on my side of the family off guard a little bit," Marcus stated. Meanwhile, Michael seemed to tell a different story when TMZ caught up with the iconic athlete in Paris and was asked about Marcus and Pippen's relationship. When asked if he approved of the romance, MJ laughed off the question at first. However, when asked again, he simply stated "No," and shook his head.

Meanwhile, Larsa doesn't seem to be harboring any hard feelings about Michael being less than thrilled about her relationship with Marcus. "It's not about my parents, his parents. They're all happy. Our whole family's fine," the reality star told Tamron Hall during an interview, adding that she's simply living her life on her own terms. However, Larsa did confess that she never sought out Marcus' attention. Instead, they found themselves spending time together with their mutual friends and their romance blossomed organically.
