"Exchanging our numbers with random guys": Larsa Pippen explains motivation behind her newest business venture

In May, Scottie Pippen's ex-wife, Larsa, partnered up with real estate investor Greg Mirmelli and software entrepreneur Umut Tekin to launch her newest business adventure. She announced a brand-new dating app that utilizes AI and facial recognition to ensure the safety of women.

Speaking to the Miami Herald on Sunday, Larsa Pippen explained how she came up with the idea for her new app:

“I was single, and all my friends were single,” she says. “We were like, we can’t just keep going to all these dating sites, and exchanging our numbers with random guys.”

Interestingly, Pippen found herself a new boyfriend, a few months before the launch of Date.com. She met Jeff Coby at the gym near the start of the year. The pair have been linked since then and seemingly confirmed their romance after they walked the red carpet of The Accountant 2 in April.

Like all her previous partners, Coby is also a former basketball player and was once signed to the New York Knicks.
