The 50-year-old Real Housewives of Miami star was apparently seen enjoying some PDA with 31-year-old basketball player Jeff Coby last weekend, as reported by Page Six. A source told the outlet that she could be seen getting cosy with her 203cm-tall beau at RHOM castmate Marysol Patton’s belated 58th birthday party. “They were cute. She was glowing,” a source said, adding that Pippen “seemed really happy and smiley”. It’s unclear how the two met and when they begun their rumoured relationship, but it’s confirmed that they do follow each other on Instagram.

The news comes over a year after her split from Michael Jordan’s son Marcus Jordan. Here’s what we know about Coby.

He is the youngest of three brothers. “I got picked on a lot when I was younger by my older brothers, but it was out of love,” he told the publication. Basketball wasn’t always his first choice of sport in his younger years. “My first sport was soccer, but then I had this growth spurt, and my parents threw me into basketball,” he explained. “There were a lot of clashes because I didn’t play super young, so there were a lot of things that I just wasn’t really good at, so it was tough, but over time, I kept working consistently, and I got my mind right, and now I’m here.”

He played college basketball for Columbia
