Larsa Pippen, 44, is speaking out for the first time since news of her divorce with Scottie Pippen, 53, broke on November 2. — And, she’s on the defense. After news of their split, critics took to social media to brand Larsa as a “gold digger.” Many accused the reality star of cheating on the Chicago Bulls legend. The critics’ argument? — “This isn’t the first time there’s been rumors you cheated!”, one person wrote online. Now, Larsa is firing back, in a now deleted Instagram note, posted to her story on November 7.
“Ppl are so insensitive to my life. I’m a lover and will never say anything negative about him. My soul isn’t built for negativity. I’lll take a beating publicly ppl saying I cheated when believe me it wasn’t like that,” she wrote.
The frequent Keeping Up With The Kardashians guest star went on to hint that she may have been the one to end their marriage, claiming Scottie wasn’t there for her when she needed him most. “He was no where around,” Larsa continued. “I cried oceans after him. I would do anything for him. Ppl saying I’m a gold digger is insane I don’t care about money and I’ve had it my whole life. I spent my bday, New Year’s Eve, Times when I needed him alone. At some point i decided I have to live my truth and here I am”.
