Morgan Freeman has been released from hospital after last Sunday’s shocking car accident, and says he’s feeling good and is now on the road to recovery.
“I left the hospital today just after 12 noon, Memphis time,” the Oscar-winning actor said in a statement released by his rep earlier today. “I’m doing very well. I feel real good. I just really, I thank the staff at ‘Elvis Presley [Hospital]’ and many, many thanks to my many well-wishers. It’s great to know people care about you.”
Freeman’s rep, Ken Sunshine, added: “He’s recovering nicely at home, and his career will continue as planned.”
It’s not all sunshine and roses for the Dark Knight star, though. Earlier in the week, the 71-year-old’s lawyer confirmed that he and his wife of 24 years, Myrna Colley-Lee, were divorcing. As well as the divorce, Freeman will also have to contend with wearing a neck brace… for the next six to eight months.
Freeman’s good friend and business partner, Bill Luckett, added: “The doctors have said it will be six months to a year before he plays golf again. He hates that.”
