"I never had a day off for 23 years" - Larsa Pippen claimed she and Scottie had sex four times every night during his NBA career
- Scottie Pippen and his ex-wife Larsa's tumultuous relationship, which began in 1997 and included multiple separations and reconciliations, finally ended in December 2021 after years of drama and cheating allegations.
Scottie Pippen 's relationship with his ex-wife, Larsa , has been a well-documented soap opera-like story since the couple got married back in the summer of 1997. During that time, Scottie was in the prime of his career and in the middle of the Chicago Bulls' second three-peat, where the franchise's dynasty was at its full peak.
Fast forward more than two decades, and the two finally separated in December of 2021, years after an on-and-off relationship. Scottie first filed for divorce in 2016, but the two would ultimately reconcile a year later in 2017.
However, Larsa famously filed for divorce again in 2018 due to "irreconcilable differences," where, during the couple's separation, she made multiple headlines for reportedly cheating as she was linked with the rapper Future.
Due to Larsa's financial dependence on Scottie, she felt trapped throughout their marriage, which led to a challenging divorce .
Larsa claims she and Scottie had sex four times a night
Still, years after their separation, details from their relationship keep slipping out, which has largely been coming from Larsa's end.
In 2023, Larsa made her appearance on the Real Housewives of Miami, where she spilled the beans about her and Scottie's sex life during their marriage.
"I was married for 23 years, I've always had sex like four times a night," she said . "So three times a week is nothing. I had sex four times a night, every night. I never had a day off for 23 years."
What most had found surprising was that Scottie was still playing at a high level with the Bulls, especially individually, as he was one of the best players in the NBA alongside Michael Jordan. It seems that the large amount of physical activity every day didn't have an impact on his game and mental feel, considering the large impact it can have on athletes' energy levels.
At the time of her statement, Larsa made headlines again when it was reported that she had been in a romantic relationship with Jordan's son, Marcus. Due to the bitter feud between MJ and Pippen that began after the docuseries The Last Dance, their relationship caused a public stir and broke the internet.
After a little while, the two would ultimately break up in the summer of 2024 after a long on-and-off cycle.
Scottie has moved on
After his divorce from Larsa, Scottie has not confirmed a new relationship, but has been seen with one woman for several years, which the internet calls a " mystery woman ." He has remained private about his relationship in contrast to his ex-wife, as his girlfriend's identity has not been revealed.
Aside from his new relationship, Scottie has been keen on his role as a father, supporting his four children, whom he and Larsa had during their time together, as well as helping his two sons, Scotty Pippen Jr. and Justin, pursue their own basketball careers.
Regarding Scottie's new relationship, Larsa stated she doesn't want to cause problems for him, implying she is happy he moved on and feels respect towards him for staying "chill" and never saying bad things about her during the messy times of their separation.
