Why did Larsa Pippen delete bikini photo? ‘RHOM’ star removes picture from social media following disapproval from father
MIAMI, FLORIDA: Larsa Pippen just deleted her latest bikini photo from social media.

Pippen told the publication, "My dad sent me a text yesterday and said, you published a photo and I think you need to take it down."
She further added, "And when my dad texts me stuff like that, I listen!"
The reality TV star continued, "I think my dad got wind of all the stuff that was being put out there. My family's really traditional and old-school — I'm the one that's always pushing the envelope with them, you know? So when he texted me that, I just deleted it."
Pippen went on to say, "I just didn't want to upset him. It wasn't worth me not making him happy at that moment."
