Just days after he was involved in a serious car accident, Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman and his wife of 24 years, Myrna Colley-Lee, have decided to part ways.
Freeman’s business partner Bill Luckett broke the news to Access Hollywood, telling the media agent that the couple “are invovled in a divorce action.”
According to Luckett, the Dark Knight star and his wife have not been living together for some time.
“For legal and practical purposes, [Freeman and Colley-Lee] have been separated since December of 2007,” Luckett added.
The 71-year-old actor is still recovering in a Memphis hospital after the car accident that almost claimed his life, and is expected to be released within the week. He underwent surgery yesterday to repair damage and reconnect nerves on his left arm and hand, and is “doing well,” his rep said.
