Per People, Yao filed for divorce in December 2020 after photographs of Beasley and Pippen surfaced. Yao issued her own statement on Instagram on Monday, May 24 in response, via TMZ. "Makai and I do appreciate Malik's apology," Yao wrote in an Instagram story. "It's hard to own up to bad decisions and apologize especially publicly so it is really appreciated."

Pippen posted her own Instagram story, but she kept it short and not so sweet with a clown emoji, per Radar Online. "Larsa doesn't care to comment and is glad she dodged a bullet," a source told the outlet. "She posted on IG her real thoughts on him. She's happy and focused on her jewelry brand Larsa Marie."

Pippen did address the relationship drama in February, alleging that Beasley and Yao had already broken up by the time she and the NBA player were photographed together (via Radar Online). "I googled them when I first met him – they weren't together," Pippen said on the podcast Hollywood Unlocked

Based on Yao's social media posts, her focus is on Makai, as she wrote on social media, "At the end of the day we are both Makai's parents so I am praying for his sake we can all move forward away from the anger and hurt to be able to raise him with love, respect, and happiness on both sides."
