Larry King and eighth wife Shawn Southwick are headed for divorce. The couple filed dueling divorce papers last week as Southwick, 50, accused the 76-year-old talk show host of sleeping with her younger sister, 46-year-old Shannon Engemann, and showering Engemann with expensive gifts, including a $160,000 car. “Their whole marriage has been one big spat,’’ a friend of the couple’s told the New York Daily News. “They’re both drama queens.”
