Larsa Pippen (Scottie Pippen’s estranged wife) and Kim Kardashian were pretty close friends for many years. So close, in fact, that I barely even paid attention to their relationship because I just assumed there was no drama. But then this week, during one of his tweet-and-deletestorms, Kanye West tweeted this:
And everybody was like HM LARSA, what’s happening there? Was it something Kanye just imagined, why the thinking-face emoji, why even name-check her at all? People did some digging and found that Larsa and Kim no longer follow each other on social media. They used to and no one is quite sure when they stopped following each other, but here we are:
No bad blood. Despite longtime friends Larsa Pippen and Kim Kardashian unfollowing each other on social media, the pair are not feuding, a source exclusively tells Us Weekly.
“Kim started actually unfollowing Larsa end of last year but did so very quietly. She unfollowed everyone altogether bringing her followers to zero because there were a lot of random accounts and she wanted to reset it just to her family and childhood friends,” an insider shares about Kardashian, 39. “For Kim’s own mental health, she wanted to narrow down what was showing up on her feed. There are a lot of people she is friends with who she doesn’t follow on social media.”
The source goes on to explain that there “was no specific event that caused her to unfollow Larsa” and there are “no bad feelings” between the women. The model, 46, and the reality TV star “just naturally grew apart over a period of time because life happen,” according to the insider.
While the Skims designer is focused on her family — the mogul shares four children with husband Kanye West — and businesses, the newly single Chicago native has a busy life with her new fitness line and four children with ex-husband Scottie Pippen.
“They are just in a different place in their lives and are not as close as they used to be but have no ill feelings at all and still stay in touch,” the source adds. “Larsa actually visited Kim recently a few weeks ago at her home with her daughter, which Larsa shared to her social media.”
After fans noticed that the KKW Beauty founder, as well as her sisters Kourtney and Khloé Kardashian, unfollowed the former Real Housewives of Miami star, she spoke out via Instagram Story. “I woke up this morning blessed and see that everybody is focused on who I am following and who I am not following on social media,” she wrote on Wednesday, July 22. “I am focused on my children, my new fitness brand Larsapippenfitness, and my relationships in real life. Praying that everybody finds peace in their own lives and focus on what brings THEM happiness.”
So if Larsa and Kim are still friendly enough to hang out, why aren’t they following each other on social media again? Weird. Since social media has lots of conspiracies and gossip, I looked to see what the theories were for this. Something about how Larsa cheated on Scottie (with Future?) and maybe Larsa knew about Kim’s extramarital affairs too? Or maybe something about Larsa fooling around with one of the husbands or boyfriends of one of the K-Js? I’m not sure if I believe *all of that* but I do think something happened, maybe there was a falling out and perhaps Kanye was trying to spill some actual tea.

So much money, so few tasteful clothes.
Right! If I saw these two out on the street….
Brilliant comment. Just shows money never buys taste
totally not on topic but Kim in that pink mini look is so happening…one of her best looks.
It really is! I was thinking the same, she looks so good (and happy here!)
What if there was a world where giant sculpted bosoms were not so intensely fetishized.
I want to go to there…..(random 30 Rock reference)
Hey there, as a lady who has one naturally, back off the giant sculpted bossoms..the big titty committee doesn’t need the extra hate after lugging these around all day
I read that as no hate toward the bosoms, just so sick and tired of the fetishization.
How about lugging them around in the humid, sweaty sweaty heat? That’s something we can all hate!
The TMZ story makes no sense as ALL of the Kardashians unfollowed her. So Kim just wanting to bring her following account to zero is not a real explanation. And some other articles noted that she didn’t attend her birthday (and in the past did) and hasn’t been photographed with her in forever. And all that aside….why would Kanye even tweet her name at all if there was no drama? Everyone whose name he tweeted was someone he has had some sort of drama with.
Omg this drama is so bratty middle-school girls. Grow up! I can’t believe these “adults” have children.
And why are they visiting one another in the middle of a pandemic?
The pandemic is for us normal folks. Celebs are still going on vacations and having parties. The world has changed at all for them.
Something happened because if you watch the show you know that Larsa would stay as long as the Kardashians allowed her to, she is THIRSTY.
I’ve seen on IG recentily (account @kardashianclips) that Jordyn Woods liked a tweet that said that Larsa slept with Tristan
I read somewhere else, possibly on twitter that Jordyn Woods liked a tweet that said Larsa slept w/ Tristan. There was some uproar that Jordyn was dragged in the media for days and all the Kardashians just unfollowed Larsa quietly. Not sure this story has much stock, I will just wait for another Kanye rant and see if we get some answers.
Jordyn liked a tweet that said (I’m paraphrasing): “So let me get this straight, Lara Pippen f*cks Tristian and nothing happens to her, but Jordyn kisses him and is shunned?”
I wonder if that’s more to do with wanting to not brand Tristan even further a cheater than he already was, in order for Khloe to save face? If it came out that he cheated with not 1 but 2 friends, it would be even worse that she stayed wit him. Just a theory.
I think she just wants another baby with him. Once that baby is born, they will go full attack mode on Tristan too. Scott is the only man who has survived in this family…they didn’t even spare their own blood Rob lol.
Tin foil tiara time: Lara’s has more to do with The Jordyn Woods thing than was said at the time. If there’s tea to come out of that and Kylie has already cut Jordyn out and Larsa has not provided the whole truth and it’s came out later – that would sour the Kardashian Jenner’s against Larsa but require a low key removal of friends after they vilified Jordyn. 21 year olds are garbage people whose cerebral cortex is not yet fully developed – not to say that Jordyn was not responsible for the consequences of her own actions but Larsa spearheaded a bullying movement against Jordyn on the Internet. I find it a little repugnant that a mother would behave like that when the situation truly did not call for her comment on the situation at all.
They both have four children? That’s so weird. I think people are just having fewer children these days, it’s unusual for someone to have four. Or maybe it’s just my crowd and also my family, I don’t know. One issue I think is I don’t know anybody who can afford four children, but…I also don’t know any women who want to put their bodies through four children. Anyway, Kimmie always has her dramas. Whatever.
There was an item on the BBC news yesterday on research just published that shows British women are having the fewest children they’ve ever had (if you see what I mean!). In the 1960s the average was 2.9 and now it’s 1.6. The number of mothers under 25 is also at its lowest ever.
But, like you say, different rules for the Kardashians/rich.
They dragged Jordyn Woods through hell and back but they let Larsa off with grace when she turned around and hooked up with Tristan. I’m not surprised though. These women have no mercy for black women.
Just wait until Blacc Chyna’s court case against the Kardashians starts. She is saying in documents that Kris called her “Ghetto” and that Kris lied to producers in order to get Rob and Chyna’s show cancelled. They really go after Black women…wirrd since they seem super jealous of them (by copying their bodies, hair, etc.).
Honestly if you dont recognize someone who is following you, delete them. You don’t have to delete everyone. Makes no sense.
Future and drake = best friends
Larsa and Kim = former best friends
Just saying!
Obviously something major happened because that is the stupidest excuse I’ve ever heard to unfollow someone.
Yes, I noticed that Kim and Khloe etc. stopped following her a long while ago. Kourtney still followed her for a while but now she doesn’t follow her as well, all the while Larsa followed the whole family (although not anymore). Jonathan Cheban still follows her though. Something is definitely fishy here.
There’s no “grain of truth” to Kanye’s words. He’s paranoid and delusional.
As soon as Kanye had his latest episode, a “source close to the Kardashian family” kept talking to the media. Then I read that Larsa was kicked outta the klan. I’ve just been assuming Larsa got caught talking to the press about them.
Larsa was so pretty before she started with the surgery. Pity.
I remember her on RHOM and she was a nasty piece of work on there. Very mean girl behavior.
TWITTER SAYS lol that Larsa hooked up with Future (which is why she got divorced) and Kim hooked up with Drake (Future and Drake are bff) and Kanye found out and that they whole family has slowly dropped her over it and THEN she went and hooked up with Tristan AFTER Jordyn because she was the one at the party who saw them and told the fam. I hate myself for how much I know.
