In 2020, reports claimed that Bronny James had sent direct messages to Larsa Pippen. Although those reports were later removed, they did drew sharp criticism from Savannah and LeBron James.
“With everything going on in the world right now, THIS is the s—t y’all talking about…,” Savannah wrote on Instagram.
“At the end of the day y’all are talking about a minor. I don’t care what type of ‘celebrity’ y’all think he is, he’s a child and the bulls—t needs to stop. Y’all got the right one.”
How Did Rumor Gained Traction?
The story apparently began when Bronny, then 16, after he liked one of Larsa’s Instagram photos.
At the time, James’ son emphasized that he was merely liking a picture of his friend’s mother.
Larsa Pippen responded furiously to those reports as well and even threatened to take legal action.
She also mentioned how some of the claims made against her were absolutely disgusting.
Some of these stories are so disgusting the fact that my sons friends can’t like my pics without some ppl writing some weirdo shit is crazy.
