Michael Jordan continues to be defied by his son Marcus as he planted a kiss on partner Larsa Pippen at a golf tournament on Thursday.

Music artist DJ Khaled held his first 'We the Best Foundation Golf Classic' in Miami as he invited celebrities, sports stars and influencers, including Marcus and Larsa who ramped up the PDA on the course. The couple were holding hands and embracing between shots while they shared a kiss in a buggy.

Larsa recently said she's "never been this happy with anyone" when speaking on her podcast which she shares with Marcus. But Jordan did not encourage the relationship during the early stages as Larsa was married to his former team-mate Scottie Pippen for 24 years. There is also a 17-year gap between Marcus and Pippen's ex-wife, but the pair seem very much in love.

However, it has not helped the relationship between Jordan and Pippen after they fell out after their time together with the Bulls despite winning six NBA championships together. Jordan did not approve of the romantic links between Marcus and Larsa, but the pair have ignored his warnings. Not only did Pippen fall out with Jordan after his team-mate retired, he's now seen the son of his enemy date his ex-wife.

Pippen and Jordan reportedly clashed over their egos, as the Bulls locker room felt unappreciated as MJ took a lot of the plaudits. This was highlighted in popular Netflix series 'The Last Dance', as it focused on Jordan heavily and didn't include much about his Bulls team-mates.

Pippen, who unleashed a rant in his November 2021 'Unguarded' memoir following the release, said: "They glorified Michael Jordan while not giving nearly enough praise to me and my proud teammates. Michael deserved a large portion of the blame, the producers had granted him editorial control of the final product. The doc couldn’t have been released otherwise. He was the leading man and the director."

Pippen and his ex-wife divorced in 2021, and after a brief period enjoying single life, she has dated Marcus ever since. Last year they were seen embracing on a date when watching the Los Angeles Chargers lose 30-27 to the Kansas City Chiefs at SoFi Stadium, and were heckled by a fan.

"Hey Larsa, that's what you're doing?" a fan said when filming their interaction. "You're with the boy, Mike's son? You a cold motherf***** ain't you! You're cold as a motherf*****, homie." The interaction went viral but the couple handled it well, although their feelings for each other have clearly grown stronger since.
