Julia Lemigova slammed Marcus Jordan as a “nepo baby” who’s using Real Housewives of Miami to “leverage a career for himself.”
She also revealed where she currently stands with her co-star and Marcus’ girlfriend Larsa Pippen, who she has feuded with for several years.
“Since leaving a communist country without a dollar to my name, I have had to work hard for everything I have achieved,” said Julia, clapping back after Marcus’ alleged reunion rant against the cast in an interview with Page Six. “I will be neither belittled nor degraded by a nepo baby … who’s using our platform to leverage a career for himself.”
During a reunion preview, Marcus shaded the cast for bringing up his father Michael Jordan.
“He’s like, ‘My dad’s name keeps being mentioned,’” said Larsa to Andy Cohen backstage. “Nobody asks about other people’s dads and moms and like…”
“Well,” Andy commented, “nobody else’s dad is Michael Jordan.”
Marcus added, “These women wouldn’t be able to do the dishes in our house, let alone trying to bring themselves in this conversation … Some people just need to stay in their lane.”
Before the clip was released, an insider told Page Six that Marcus had a heated moment backstage.
“The women did not hear what Marcus said backstage, and didn’t even know about the incident until after the reunion taped,” said the source. “But it was captured, and the ladies have been made aware of it.”
In Julia’s recent interview with the outlet, she said there was no resolution with Larsa at the reunion, and their conversations indicated that a potential friendship is unlikely. She claimed they are “not on speaking terms.”
“I give people a lot of chances. But when something big happens or you hear that something big happens, it really can change your perspective of the person itself and I don’t need to be around them,” Julia shared. “They’re not part of my life. They never were really. We are not friends, and I feel like our feelings toward each other are pretty mutual.”
