Larsa Pippen and Marcus Jordan are following each other again on Instagram — just days after Page Six confirmed that the pair had split.
The “Real Housewives of Miami” star, 49, and the 33-year-old son of Michael Jordan seemingly decided on Wednesday — which happens to be Valentine’s Day — that it was time to keep up with one another via social media.
Reps for Pippen and Marcus didn’t immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.
However, a source exclusively tells Page Six that the pair’s inner circle “wouldn’t be surprised” if they got back together.
Meanwhile, another insider tells us that Pippen — who filmed Season 2 of “The Traitors” with Marcus last fall in Scotland — was excitedly telling the cast about their plans to get married while filming the Peacock reality competition series.
“They seemed so in love during filming and Larsa was telling everyone how excited she was to marry Marcus and plan a wedding,” the source recalls.
“They weren’t even engaged, but she was confident that they were in it for the long haul. She brought up the wedding a lot.”
Pippen’s “RHOM” castmates Julia Lemigova and Adriana de Moura told us this week that a reconciliation seemed imminent.
“I don’t want to believe that it’s a permanent breakup because they are cute together,” Lemigova, 51, said on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast.
De Moura, 58, for her part, emphasized that Marcus is a “great guy,” who supported Pippen at the recently filmed “Miami” Season 5 reunion.
The “Fyah” singer added that the pair appeared “five times solid,” which made the breakup all the more confounding.
“We all thought that the next step would be an engagement,” she said. “So this breakup news is kind of surprising to all of us.”
Page Six confirmed on Monday that Pippen and Jordan called it quits after wiping each other from their respective social media accounts — and unfollowing each other — over the weekend.

An insider exclusively told us that the two “are taking space from each other” due to “tension” in their relationship allegedly “incited” by Marcus’ dad, Michael, 60, “publicly denouncing it.”
“Marcus said Michael was joking when he said he didn’t approve, but it really mortified Larsa,” the source explained.
Michael’s unsavory history with Larsa’s ex-husband, Scottie Pippen — his former Chicago Bulls teammate and enduring rival — also allegedly made things tough for her and Marcus even if they “did their best to make it a non-issue,” the insider told us.
But another source asserted that family matters did not factor into the duo’s decision to press pause on their romance.
“They have decided to take some time apart to reevaluate their relationship,” the second insider stressed, adding that the breakup “has nothing to do with any family input, but solely for their personal growth.”
Larsa and Marcus initially incited dating rumors in September 2022 after being photographed out to dinner. They denied their relationship for several months, but went Instagram-official in January 2023.
“The Real Housewives of Miami” airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
