\"Losing them feels so out of order,\" wrote King. \"No parent should have to bury a child. My family and I thank you for your outpouring of kind sentiments and well wishes. In this moment, we need a little time and privacy to heal. I thank you for respecting that.\"

King, who has been married eight times to seven women, shared Andy and Chaia with former Playboy bunny Alene Akins, who died in 2017.

King also has a son, Larry, 58, with Annette Kaye, and sons Chance, 21, and Cannon, 20, with actress Shawn King, whom he divorced last year after 22 years of marriage.
