Larry King has decided to part ways with his longtime love, Shawn Southwick King.
The pair has been married for 22 years, but it looks like the 85-year-old television host is ready to close this chapter. King filed for divorce on Tuesday, Aug. 20 in Los Angeles Superior Court against the 59-year-old actress. The two tied the knot in 1997—and it marked Larry’s eighth marriage and seventh wife, but for Shawn, this was her third marriage.
Moreover, this isn’t the first time the duo has called it quits. Back in 2010, both of them filed for divorce, but they later reconciled. News of the duo’s split comes nearly four months after King revealed he was hospitalized due to chest pain.
In late April of this year, the legendary host was headed to the hospital for a scheduled angioplasty procedure, however, he began experiencing chest pain.
“Before his scheduled procedure, he experienced angina and went to the hospital early to be examined,” King’s rep enunciated.
The rep made it clear that, despite reports, “he did not have a heart attack and he did not go into cardiac arrest.”
