In my first article about Larry King’s crumbling marriage with his wife Shawn Southwick, i was of the opinion that Larry had to learn a big lesson  and ought to split his fortune as it is written in the law for neglecting to opt in for prenup when he married Shawn back in 1997.

There were speculations that Larry King cheated on his wife with Shawn’s sister and she retaliated by having an affair with Penante Hector, a man Larry King had hired as a baseball coach of their children. Penante Hector sat down on the ET in an reveal-it-all interview shedding light on the details of his affair with Shawn. Penante claims that Shawn began hitting on him just two weeks after Larry hired him and after the fourth time, they kicked off an affair by kissing in a car. He said Shawn knew Larry had an affair with his sister and told him often that he should not worry because Larry was going to die soon and then they could be together. When he was asked if he and Shawn ever had canal knowledge of each other in Larry King’s house he said yes and went on to state that they made use of the same bed Larry and Shawn shared and that most times while they were making out in Larry’s room, they always had the television on and often tuned in to the Larry King’s Live’s program on CNN. Penante also stated that Larry King’s sons almost caught him naked in bed with their mum but he jumped out from the bed and hid while Shawn took the kids back to their room but stated that the two kids got to know about his affair with their mother because Shawn told them that he was in love with her. Penante said he started to freak out when the one of the boys came up to him to ask if he was going to be living with their mum now and if he was going to take the place of their daddy.

Penante said he had at one point fell in love with Shawn but when things started to get out of hand, he called Larry King and told him everything that had happened but that he was surprised that Larry King did not show any emotion of being hurt or heart broken. He said Shawn broke up with him after he told Shawn’s mother that he was having an affair with her daughter. He said Shawn’s mother got wind of the affair they were having when she saw the text messages he and Shawn had been exchanging. Shawn’s mother told Shawn all what Penante had told her and that was the primary reason why Shawn stopped communicating with him. He went on to state that the only reason why Shawn did not leave Larry King when she discovered he was cheating on her with her sister was because of the money and that she was trying to get back all the jeweleries and other gifts that Larry bought for her sister. With this recent revelation from Penante about his affair with Larry King’s wife, we await what Larry and Shawn have to say  and if these two will finally come out and tell the truth about what really happened.
