Whose ears are burning?

Marcus Jordan may be a major plot point in the new season of “Real Housewives of Miami,” but he’s in a totally different era now.

The sneaker entrepreneur’s on-and-off relationship with Larsa Pippen is spotlighted big time in the first episode, which started filming last summer.

The ladies get into a few tiffs over Michael Jordan’s son, because Pippen is annoyed that a few of them still follow him on Instagram.

These days, the exes, who were so close that they had a podcast together called “Separation Anxiety,” are completely kaput.

How do we know?

First off, Pippen went social media official with basketball player Jeff Coby a few weeks ago. The 31-year-old “A Mindful Journey” author also appeared by her side at the premiere party last week at Rosa Negra restaurant in Brickell.

On the show, the 50-year-old claimed her family wanted her to break things off with the fellow Chicagoan.

“When I was with Marcus, my kids were like, ‘Stop getting back together and breaking up, and just get off the ride,’” the Bravolebrity told her mom. “That’s when I was like, ‘I need to get away from the situation.’”

As for the NBA legend’s heir, he was spotted over the weekend getting cozy in Miami Beach with two mystery women whose identities were not outed by TMZ.

Despite the fact that he looks like he’s living his best life now, the 34-year-old had quite the tumultuous time after his split with Pippen. Jordan was arrested in February after getting his Lambo SUV stuck on train tracks in Maitland, Fla., outside Orlando.

One lucky break: Officers initially thought he was carrying cocaine in his pocket, but further testing revealed the powdery substance in his pocket was ketamine, the anesthetic that led to Matthew Perry’s death.

Prosecutors officially changed the drug possession charge to a third degree felony. That will likely mean a less harsh penalty when Jordan heads to court to plead his case in September.
