Larsa Pippen is opening up about her ex Scottie, who she labeled “The Punisher” in a recent episode of Real Housewives of Miami.
Pippen said her ex-husband—who she explained is “used to controlling the narrative”— would try “punishing” her when he didn’t get his way, as she spoke about her divorce with Alexia Echevarria in Thursday’s episode, per Page Six. Pippen told Echevarria that she was “kind of trying to force him to sell” their Miami home, when she says Scottie demanded she send their daughter Sophia “back to LA.”
The Pippens, who share four kids, were first married in 1997 and finalized their divorce late last year after being separated for three years. Larsa added that Scottie tries “pushing all the buttons to let me know that he’s still in charge and because I’m doing whatever makes me happy.”
“I was traumatized,” Larsa continued. “If he doesn’t get his way, he punishes me. He’s like The Punisher… This is like his last piece of control that he’s got over me and the kids. He’s only punishing me because I’m making him sell the house.”
Larsa also touched on dating younger men since the divorce—including Malik Beasley of the Timberwolves who was married at the time of their alleged affair. Beasley has since apologized to his wife and child.
“So dating someone younger makes me happy? I’m doing it!” Larsa said. “Which leads me to believe that it’s a jealousy problem. That jealousy is the underlying issue.”
The reality star later elaborated on her expectations when it comes to finding a significant other, mentioning Scottie having spoiled her in the past, and that she doesn’t intend to “chase something that’s not for me.”
“I would expect so much,” she said. “I would expect a guy to do so much for me, because that’s what I’ve had. If you’re not going to do a whole bunch of things for me, then why would I want to be with you? I’d rather be alone.”
