Morgan Freeman Accused of Incestuous Affair

Tina Molly Lang
Actor Morgan Freeman has been accused of incest. Amidst bitter divorce hearings, a family insider has told The National Enquirer that Morgan Freeman has been having an affair with his step-granddaughter. According to the Enquirer, the 72-year-old Oscar winning actor began the affair with 27-year-old E'Dena Hines when she was a teenager, and that the affair had led to the breakup of his marriage with wife Myrna and Mary Joyce Hays.

Given that this is the National Enquirer, one has to take these reports with a grain of salt. Still, I hope these allegations are not true, as I've always enjoyed Morgan Freeman as an actor and such an affair would tarnish my image of him.

Morgan Freeman Accused of Incest: Life and Career

Morgan Freeman is known for his commanding speaking voice, which has allowed him to plays roles such as God and President of the United States. His most famous movies include Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, Seven, Deep Impact, Batman Begins, The Bucket List, and The Dark Knight. Morgan Freeman received Academy Award nominations for his roles in Street Smart (1987), Driving Miss Daisy (1989), and The Shawshank Redemption (1994). He won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in Million Dollar Baby (2004).

Morgan Freeman refuses to celebrate Black History Month, arguing that Black History is American History and that we don't have a White History Month. He has argued that the best way to end racism is to stop talking about it.

Morgan Freeman was married to Jeanette Adair Bradshaw from 1967-1979. In 1984, he married Myrna Colley-Lee. Since 2007, they have been separated and are in the midst of a bitter divorce battle.

Morgan Freeman Accused of Incest: Other Cases

E'Dena Hines is the granddaughter of ex-wife Jeanette Adair Bradshaw. Morgan Freeman and Myrna had raised E'Dena since she was a little girl. Although they are not related by blood, such a scandal would not lend any favor to Morgan Freeman's public image.

If this affair is true, then Morgan Freeman's scandal tops that of Woody Allen who famously had an affair and married adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn. E'Dena Hines has accompanied Freeman to events such as last summer's premier of The Dark Knight. Hopefully the relationship was innocent and that she had really accompanied him as his granddaughter.

    Morgan's party life finally caught up with him. Driving drunk and crashing a friends car after a party. Getting his granddaughter drunk and raping her. This will probably have a big negative affect on his box office take on his new movie. C'mon Morgan, pay everyone off and do your jail time, then live happily ever after with your millions.

    THIS INCIDENT. And, YOU, his fans, will go on to ADORE and WORSHIP him and continue to make him rich no matter WHAT HE HAS DONE. Like a lot of men with money--HE HAS NO BOUNDARIES. I look for this ole fool to self-destruct like MEL GIBSON or OJ SIMPSON. I quit being a fan a long time ago--he really hasn't done anything worthwhile movie-wise for sometime. And his propensity for doing "gravitas" for white folks just smacks of "Uncle Tomism." He's no Denzel Washington, Danny Glover, or Forest Whittaker. These proud black men draw the line at doing "gravitas" for the white folks, screwing their young daughters/ granddaughters, and flipping down highways with old Confederate white women--LOL. Good Luck Mr. Freeman--you're gonna need it.

    Oh, no...not Morgan Freeman!

    Oh man, I really hope it isn't true...

    I rather doubt that this is true. This actor actually has a home here in Oregon he is a fantastic person and an important man for the movement to stop racism.

    gwen, had you actually read the article you would have seen that I had *already* made that point. "Although they are not related by blood, such a scandal would not lend any favor to Morgan Freeman's public image."
