Morgan Freeman: Divorce After 24 Years Of Marriage
Morgan Freeman and his wife of 24-years, costumer Myrna Colley-Lee, are getting a divorce, reports Access Hollywood.
The news comes days after the 71-year-old Dark Knight actor was involved in a serious car crash.
“[The couple] are involved in a divorce action,” Morgan’s Mississippi-based attorney and business partner Bill Luckett revealed. “And for legal and practical purposes, [Freeman and Colley-Lee] have been separated since December of 2007.”

To: annaversary (#4)——-your comment was unnecessary and quite sick.
I like Morgan Freeman as an actor. He is one of the best actors!
By the way. I am a white woman…so, this has nothing at all to do about what color a person is, geez! This is the 21st century
What goes on in his personal life is none of our business.
What is wrong with you guys.
The article clear states that they’ve been separeted since December, that’s 8 months ago. Why can’t we assume that he hooked up with the mistery woman after he separated from his wife, and the only reason why they are saying something about it now, is so no one accuses him of creepin’ which you are all doing now anyway.
No wonder his wife has not shown up at the hospital, or had a comment to make. How sad. But, if they have been apart that long it is understandable. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. He is the best!! This should not EVER be a race issue. It does not matter WHO is girlfriend is. WHITE or BLACK, as long as they both are happy, and his ex-wife is happy and they remain friends. End of story.
OMG WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ALL THE CAST OF THE DARK KNIGHT????
He did supposedly have a female in the car with him when he crashed. I wonder who it was.
^^^^^^
The Dark Knight is cursed because so far (as Arnold would say)
“It’s da best movie of da summa.”
This is a hot topic now at the hot age gap dating club ‘ Agelessmatch.com ‘ which is a good place for 18+ singles to meet cute younger or older girls with big boobs online. This is the only site where sexy younger or older girls like discussing sports, cougars…
Seems to me that last year there were rumors that he was having an affair. I like the old guy but would be greatly disgusted if he was cheating on his wife.
my prayers are with you for a quick recovery really enjoy watching your movies so take care and I will be seening you in the future. keep up the good work my prayers are also with you family
Not surprised with the divorce announcement. ‘Miss Daisy’ was obviously the Mistress. Must have been one hell of a bl*w-job to cause that crash.
You go, grandpa!
Yep…the truth shall come to the light some way, some how!
It’s obvious that the wife wants a divorce after catching her husband with this *****. It’s ashame it took a car accident for her to find out
everyone who says the cast of dark knight is cursed has to really shut up. why is it doing so amazingly well in box office if its cursed? ever heard of the word coincidence? or are you all just superstitous?
love morgan freeman as an actor and its a shame that they’re divorcing after 24 years of marriage. hope all things go well.
morgan freeman divorce should be a private affair people
Typical American woman… kicks when you’re down
Theresa #20 you are WRONG and are jumping to conclusions. They’ve been separated — but NO a month ago they were not getting a divorce. Now they are.
You people act like you know NOTHING about relationships or how the real world works!
Leave for a white woman once he’s successful?!?! How STUPID a comment is THAT?!?!
Morgan Freeman has been a successful actor — one of the most acclaimed in Hollywood — for DECADES and he stayed with his wife for 24 friggin’ years!!
Jeez, people, get over it. He was married for a long, long time, obviously longer than most of you have been alive. Time for both to get on with their lives, and it seems for you all, also.
Wishing Morgan and his ex-wife the best.
Tdani,
it’s obvious that you read only tabloids and have no clue about real life. They have been separated for EIGHT MONTHS. Don’t you think that maybe long before that, the marriage was over and his wife might be somewhat more aware of what is going on than YOU??? Don’t you think that being separated for eight months would mean that the marriage is dead and they are dating and it’s only legal issues that still make them man and wife?
I know people who are no longer “married” in reality but have stayed married legally. Don’t you? The separation for so long says it all. Clearly, the only reason the divorce announcement came is so that idiots and tabloids don’t create a controversy where there is none. These are private people, private ADULTS, who don’t need or want their private lives all over the tabs and blogs for people like posters here to speculate and get it all wrong just because a juicy story sounds better than the boring reality.
I think he is now with a white woman, because there ****** is tight.
In general all black woman have big ******, so big you can hear echo.
First of all I wish my very favourite actor, Morgan Freeman, a speedy recovery from that terrible crash.
I imagine that all the speculation has caused the divorce announcement to be made. I find it rather weird that his lawyer has declared that they separated in December 2007 when the photo accompanying this article shows an apparently happy and contented couple and was taken in April 2008! Perhaps the crash caused the divorce - who knows.
How could he be so stupid? Seriously, how hard is it to get a divorce before you start dating someone new?? Cheating has got to be one of the most pathetic moves a person can make in their life. No balls to end one thing properly before you start the next. I’m really disappointed in Morgan Freeman. I had thought he was one of the “good guys”
You all with you “Black Woman” vrs “White Woman” senarios is just plain IGNORANT!!!! Do you really think black men sit around with their black wives saying…………aaaaaaaaaaaaaah you know what? I need me a white woman now…… yeah that is what I need……. Now that I am somebody??? White women are there for black men on their way up aswell as black woman…. Men are men and go for what they want. Not a skin color, but whatever it is the other WOMAN is offering them…… Stop being prejudice and judge men off actions of just being creeps versus going from a certain color woman for another…… put you anger in the right place….. If a black man left you for a another black woman that is ok right???? NO so chill out with that racist crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jen in ALASKA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PS, From Mrs. ALASKA up here…..
Us white women don’t take your black men!!! They give themselves to us!!! lol
I am glad that Morgan Freeman has recovered. Although he is my favorite actor, I must say that I am a little disappointed in him, but what can I say, it’s his life and he lives it the way that he wants to :)
So even actors who don’t live in hollywood have a hard time making it work…. SAD
