Larsa Pippen Reveals Discontent Among 'The Traitors' Cast

Larsa Pippen showcased her prowess on the second season of 'The Traitors', delivering an impressive performance throughout the competition. However, her journey took an unexpected turn when a misconception among the majority of the cast led to her premature elimination during episode 4. The cast, mistakenly perceiving her as a Traitor, decided to banish her from the competition.

Larsa, found herself ousted from the game after her boyfriend, Marcus Jordan, fell victim to the machinations of the real Traitors, namely Dan Gheesling, Parvati Shallow, and Phaedra Parks. The strategic decision to eliminate the couple stemmed from the perceived threat they posed as a formidable duo.

In an exclusive interview with a magazine, Larsa Pippen candidly shared her perspective on the cast's reaction to her and Marcus, participating in the show as a couple. She acknowledged the anticipation that people might not be pleased with their joint presence in the competition, especially given the unforeseen twists and turns that unfolded during their time on "The Traitors."

“And I also feel like people gave us way too much credit,” the Real Housewives of Miami star added. “People thought we were going to have each other’s backs. But at the same time, we went into the game knowing it was an individual game. We knew that we’re gonna go in there, and if you’re a Traitor, or if I’m a Traitor, we’re gonna have to do what we have to do.”

Larsa disclosed that the initial offer to participate in the Peacock series was extended to Marcus. Upon being informed of this opportunity by her managers, the couple united in their decision-making, opted to embark on the journey to Scotland together.

“For me, I’m not used to doing shows that are competitive like that and so physical,” Larsa noted. “I was kind of scared to do it — and Marcus was super excited. He’s like, ‘It’s gonna be great. We’re gonna kill it.’ He was looking forward to the super physical and the games and the challenges, and I feel like I was more excited about the roundtable and just seeing the behind-the-scenes of how everybody was going to be moving and just trying to gauge what everyone was thinking.”
