Legendary American TV presenter Larry King (86) has lost his daughter Chaia. Three weeks ago he also had to say goodbye to his son Andy.

51-year-old Chaia died of cancer last week. Andy died on July 28, presumably of a heart attack. Larry King was unable to attend his funeral in Florida due to travel restrictions due to the corona virus. He had to follow the funeral via a video connection.
Former CNN talk show host Larry King adopted Andy in 1962, when he married his mother Alene Akins. The couple got Chaia in 1969. Three years later they split up. King was married a total of no fewer than eight times. He has three more children with two of his exes. Larry King Junior (58) is from his marriage to Annette Kaye. And then he has two more in their twenties – Chance (21) and Cannon (20) – with Shawn Southwick. Last year, the couple broke up after 22 years of marriage.
An intimus from the family declares in a newspaper that “Larry and his remaining three children are distraught” after the two deaths. The TV icon is still recovering from his own health problems from last year. He suffered a stroke in March 2019, which left him in a coma for three days.
