Larsa Pippen Then and Now: From New Mom to New Boyfriend Marcus Jordan [PICS]
The Real Housewives of Miami cast member has undergone a major style evolution in the last 20 years.
Larsa Pippen is, like many of us, a work in progress.
The Real Housewives of Miami cast member has gone from being a married mom of four young kids on the show to a businesswoman and divorcée with a new boyfriend, Marcus Jordan. But, everyone knows that new love is never easy, and she sparked rumors of a split in February, which she later denied.
"We're trying to work things out," Larsa told Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave and Tamra Judge on their on Two T's In A Pod podcast on February 20. "We spent some time apart and I feel like we both realize we do want to work on our relationship. We do want to be together."
That is, of course, not the only thing she's admitted to working on over the years.
"I feel like I’m very progressive," she shared at the Season 4 reunion. "I’m into trends, and I feel like whatever makes me feel good and look good, I’m willing to do. I’m that person."
