A former Little League coach to the sons of Larry King and estranged wife Shawn Southwick claims he had an affair with Southwick -- but says King didn't care because he was carrying on with Southwick's sister, Shannon Engemann. "I still think to this day that Larry is in love with Shawn's sister," Hector Penate, 31, told In Touch magazine out today.
Penate says he started sleeping with 50-year-old
"We had sex in Larry's bed -- a lot," Penate said. "I had sex with Shawn while Larry was on TV. Our sex life was real good."
I hope you got some pix you can sell now because your job as a coach is toast.

Southwick allegedly lavished Penate with gifts, including a BMW 7 Series, and paid his rent. What's more, says Penate, Southwick had King co-sign the lease for Penate's Studio City, Calif., apartment. "She controlled him," Penate tells the magazine. "He just sat there and signed it."
Penate also claims King didn't mind Penate's antics since he was allegedly cheating on Southwick with her sister, Engemann, 45. King hinted to Penate about his attraction to Engemann. "He told me one time, 'Have you ever seen Shannon?' After I said that I had never met her, he said, 'Oh, oh -- she's really gorgeous!' "
Southwick has previously denied having affair with Penate, and Engemann has denied to The Post that she had an affair with King, calling the accusation "ludicrous."
I dunno, the guy's been married nine times.
Last week, King and Southwick were heading for divorce after nearly 13 years of marriage, but it's now on hold. "It was decided that there will be no divorce activity for two weeks as several issues need to be discussed and resolved," King's lawyer, Dennis Wasser, said in a statement Monday.
Maybe Shawn is having an affair with Larry now?
A rep for King had no comment on the In Touch story.
Sheesh, is he doing her too?
