Larry King Files For Divorce From Latest Wife

So much for #7!

Talk show host Larry King has filed for divorce from Shawn Southwick, his seventh wife. The reason? "Irreconcilable differences," as usual.

King is 76. Southwick is 50. The couple wed in 1997 - they have two sons, Chance and Cannon.

UPDATE: Shawn has filed her own divorce papers, also citing irreconcilable differences. Southwick is asking for primal custody of the children as well as spousal/child support.

Hmm, but why the sudden split? Larry and Shawn have been married for over ten years and that's almost a lifetime in Hollywood!

Cheating rumors have been circling the pair for a few years - The National Enquirer reported in late '08 that Shawn was having an affair with a hunky twentysomething actor named Hector Penate.

Then in December of last year, the Enquirer alleged Larry himself was cheating on Shawn with her younger sister Shannon Engemann. The tab claimed Larry spent over a million bucks to put Shannon up at The Beverly Hills Hotel for 18 months AND bought her an expensive car.

So much drama between these two. Hopefully the divorce won't take a huge toll on their kids...
