Larry King is about to declare a tie on divorces with Elizabeth Taylor.  Today he filed for divorce (it will be his 8th) from Shawn Southwick (she also filed for divorce today) after a huge fight last night TMZ is reporting.

Apparently the fight resulted from Shawn accusing Larry of cheating on her with her sister!  And she says she has proof: Over the years Larry has transferred property to Shawn to prove he is commited to the marriage, but Shawn says it’s simply the guilt that got to him.  And by properties I mean a Beverly Hills mansion, and houses in Provo & St. George, Utah.

I don’t think Shawn realizes how easy she has it:  real estate in her name AND she doesn’t have to sleep with Larry King (assuming he is in fact screwing others..how much stamina does someone of his age possibly have).  What’s the problem?  Well for starters, Larry is going to try to overturn the legal documents transferring the properties to her name.

Shawn’s sister Shannon Engemann is adamant that she and Larry aren’t having an affair and goes on to say:

“I’m tired for taking the rap for things.  I did not have an affair with Larry.  He’s been like a father to me.”

You just know this is going to be a long and painful process for all of us as the mudslinging begins.
