Reality TV star Larsa Pippen is getting a lot of grief after she and NBA player Malik Beasley made their relationship public despite the fact that Beasley is still legally married.
Pippen, 46, the ex-wife of NBA icon Scottie Pippen, is now defending herself on Twitter after being called a homewrecker for allegedly breaking up Beasley’s marriage. Moreover, Beasley’s estranged wife, Montana Yao, has torched Pippen for allegedly lying about when the two became involved.
According to “Entertainment Tonight,” Pippen and Beasley, 24, were caught by paparazzi on Nov. 23, 2020, holding hands inside a Miami mall, inspiring Yao to file for divorce just days later.
ET reported that Yao was shocked by the photos of her husband and Pippen. “Wow… I don’t even know this man..this is wild y’all I’m seeing it for the time just like y’all,” Yao wrote on an Instagram story.
Now Pippen is claiming that she and Beasley only met and became involved after he and his wife had separated.
I’ve been separated going thru a divorce for over 2 years and I’ve been linked to a few guys my entire life so don’t sit here and paint a picture of me that isn’t true

Malik and his ex were separated before I ever met him that’s a fact

Yao was highly offended that Pippen chose to address this publicly and claims Pippen is fabricating the circumstances to make herself look better. She also issued a warning to Pippen to keep her mouth shut about the matter or suffer the consequences.
This is 100% false. Continue to speak on my name and my relationship and we’re going to have issues. Receipts don’t lie. Let’s not go there. I think you’ve embarrassed yourself enough already. https://t.co/ad0XtzkZMP
