She kept it a well-guarded secret, but Shauna Sand is married ... but not for long.
A Frenchie named Romain Chavent married her in 2006, but now says he's giving her the Lucite boot -- telling us her move to Miami and hard-partying are reasons for the split. Aren't her outfits reason enough?
Like her other ex, Shauna definitely has a type too -- this guy looks a helluva lot like Lorenzo Lamas.
Chavent filed for divorce yesterday, citing irreconcilable differences. BTdubs, his divorce papers are handwritten. Guess the modeling thing isn't working out so well.

Hoff to Pam: I Have Your Bach
As part of his divorce settlement with ex Pamela Bach, David Hasselhoff will maintain possession of his biggest asset -- his name.
Specifically listed in the divorce settlement filed today, Hasselhoff keeps the rights to the name "Hoff" and the catchphrase, "Don't Hassle the Hoff" in countries throughout the world.
Bach and Hasselhoff will split their Encino, Calif. home 50/50. Bach also gets two cars (a 2006 Mercedes and a 1999 Lincoln Navigator), half of their joint checking account and the balance of a few other bank accounts -- one of which has a whole dollar in it!

Shauna Blows Off Ex -- Who's the Renegade Now?
After an intense screaming match with her baby daddy just a few days ago, Shauna Sand left the City of Plastic Angels and is currently in Miami -- despite threats that Lorenzo Lamas would take her tight ass to court before she walked it onto the plane!
According to a source extremely close to the situation, Shauna doesn't deny that a verbal gunfight broke out, but claims that Lamas now supports the move and actually "put her on the plane." Shauna is saying this, but we're told Lorenzo is adamant -- the kids ain't moving down to Miami! It wouldn't be the first time the two went nuclear in court.
We're told Sand is also very sensitive about her mothering skills, saying TMZ can call her a "trashy, stripper shoe wearing Botox injected plastic booby bimbo" all we want , but calling her a bad mother "hurts her heart in the worst deep possible way."
For the record, we never called Shauna -- a trashy, stripper shoe wearing Botox injected plastic booby bimbo -- a bad mother.
Lorenzo to Shauna -- Stop Bitchin' About S. Beach
TMZ has learned Lorenzo Lamas got into a screaming match with Shauna Sand this week over her decision to move her botoxed face and family to South Beach.
Lorenzo's lawyer, Cary Goldstein, Lorenzo told Shauna if she even dares to try, he will be in court before she even boards the plane. Lorenzo feels he's the only "stable influence" in the family (we can't argue with that) and does not want his kids living with her thousands of miles away from him. Lorenzo has pretty much had full physical custody of the kids for more than a month now, while Shauna does her thing.
You ask what her thing is? We're told she's frustrated by the L.A. scene and feels South Beach will give her much-needed Miami heat.
This would be a devastating blow to the cosmetic surgery industry in Beverly Hills.
