Larry King is taking out his checkbook.
The media titan will pay estranged wife Shawn Southwick King $33,000 per month in spousal support, according to legal documents filed in the Los Angeles Superior Court, which were obtained by Page Six.
King, 87, also has agreed to pay Shawn, 61, a one-time lump sum of $20,000.
The interim agreement will last until the former couple’s hearing, set for April 29, 2021, in which they’ll determine whether Shawn can receive retroactive payment for the year-plus since King filed to end their marriage in August 2019.
Shawn first filed for spousal support in September 2020.
King, who recently spent his birthday in the hospital for a blood-flow issue, previously said their 26-year age gap, in addition to their religious differences, took a toll on the marriage.
“Also my wife is a very religious Mormon, and I’m an agnostic atheist, so that causes little problems,” he said. “We overcame a lot, but it just hit a point where we didn’t get along.”
Friends of Shawn’s later told Page Six that she was “blindsided” by the filing.
“Also my wife is a very religious Mormon, and I’m an agnostic atheist, so that causes little problems,” he said. “We overcame a lot, but it just hit a point where we didn’t get along.

Sounds like the math is off or he divorced one of these women two times.
Perhaps it is a case of bigamy - He married and divorced another woman during the time he was married to her...

I should have found myself a rich old man to marry and divorce. Well, if you want to duplicate her life you'd have to marry yourself a rich old man, have three children, and stay married for 23 years.
I think she deserves more than she getting from this $50 million old man.
To: forgotten man
He should have stayed single and paid hookers instead of marrying that gold digger. Having three children and staying married for 23 years -- in sickness and in health -- is hardly a gold digger.

“he divorced one of these women two times.”
He did.
He also won father of the year award from somebody.

Wow. Can you imagine being married and divorced so many times?
Just wow.

There are several problems with this:
- I can't afford to pay very much to an ex-wife who is 26 years younger than me.
- No one 26 years younger than me is willing to marry me because I'm not rich. Unless they have a mental problem and those are hard to find. And mental problems are like a box of chocolates...
- If I did marry someone 26 years younger than me, and my health started to fail, it seems like the right thing to do would to set her free, like Larry is doing. But I'll need a nurse maid and she's hooked. Is that wrong of me?
- I would probably disrespect the religion of a mormon more than an agnostic atheist would, because I see it as an abomination of true Christianity. So those would be larger problems than Larry had.

My old goat husband and I have three children and have been married for 44 years. He hasn’t got a proverbial pot to pee in so till death do us part.

She earned it with her good looks in comparison to the hideousness of Larry King.

Getting divorced at 87? Doesn’t really make sense unless he is miserable with her. Maybe she was cheating on him?

Shawn was King’s seventh wife and his eighth divorce over the years.
Sounds like the math is off or he divorced one of these women two times.That's exactly what happened.

How does one know when you’ve been married too many times? When you start recycling wives.
