Larry King: Boxer Shorts Made Me A Dad Again At 64
Don't mention Viagra to talk show host Larry King, who's becoming a father again at age 64. His alternative to the blue pill is -- boxer shorts!
"I've never used Viagra," King told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview. "Thankfully, I don't need it. But with the medication I take for my heart, I wouldn't risk it.
"A friend of mine told me: If you want your wife to get pregnant, wear boxer shorts. I had never worn them before. But I wore them for six months. And it worked!
"Now I'm back to jockeys. I have 18 beautiful boxer shorts, cleaned, pressed and folded in the drawer. I'll never wear them again. They're uncomfortable and you can't find the fly. I have no idea why anyone would ever wear them. But like I said: It worked."
Larry and his seventh wife Shawn, 38 -- who wed last year -- found out just over three weeks ago that she's pregnant.
Larry is already the father of three grown children -- Andy, 41, Larry Jr., 37, and Chaia, 30. Shawn has a 16-year-old son, Danny.
"This is thrilling," Larry declared. "I've had some friends who have had this happen to them -- being fathers over age 60. I feel just the way they described it to me.
"I haven't heard a baby in my house in 30 years since my daughter was an infant. To do it again with a wonderful woman, who I'm deeply in love with, is just the greatest feeling in the world.
"Sometimes when I'm alone and driving to work at CNN, I say to myself: 'I can't believe this! I'm going to be a father again!' It's just incredible." |
