King has been married 8 times and divorce number 8 has just been announced from his current wife. There's no guaranttee in marriage but 8 divorces? That has to say something about him and the guy's personal side is a train wreck.

Liz Taylor has him beat by one and there's talk of her marrying again (for the 10th time).

Never cared much for King.

Love this:

Hard to disagree, Robbs. It's difficult to keep blaming the wife after eight tries. You've got to look in the mirror at some point. Once or twice, maybe things just don't work out but that's a ridiculous amount of times to be married and divorced. I couldn't go through that over and over again. My parents divorced and that was traumatic enough. It's made me stop to consider if I even want to marry once. With the divorce rate well over 50 percent today, I question whether I want to dive into something that statistically has a bigger chance of failing than succeeding. But I guess that is part of life in general; it's about taking chances and seeing where things take you. All part of the journey.

Think about all the times he's had his young kids on the show and raved about them and family life and how he finally found his way. That didn't last long. The guy must be impossible to live with.

its bad enough to try and watch him on tv, home life would be nearly impossible.

Larry King has issues and one of them is that he's a major fibber. There are countless celebrities he claims were friends of his growing up in the old days in Brooklyn, such as Sandy Koufax (King says Sandy was a "great friend" and they used to play ball together). Trouble is not one of those people, including Sandy, say they ever knew or even met King. His old tales are just that -- tales. A major league BS artist. BTW, the press is reporting that the reason his current marriage is ending in divorce #8 is that he was having an affair with his wife's sister. What a guy. Always amazing how someone can be so successful in their career while such a train wreck outside of work.

2 of those divorces were from the same lady, whom he married twice, and apparently, he was having an affair with his current, and may I say gorgeous wife's sister, who is younger..I have not seen a photo of her though. he could not pay me a million to even kiss him on the cheek. Gross.

What's the old saying? Perpetual commitment to one aspect of your life means perpetual neglect of all other aspects...

Never heard that one, but that's good.
