The legendary American actor Morgan Freeman still remembers the time when he was accused by his ex-wife of having an affair with one of his granddaughters, who passed away a few years ago.
The Hollywood Icon has remembered us all about the scandal that he went through after Myrna Colley-Lee, his ex-wife, made very strong accusations claiming that he was in a romantic relationship with one of his granddaughters who was 50 years younger than him at the time. This was also the cause of the divorce of the married couple.
Her name is E’Dena Hines, granddaughter of Jeanette Bradshaw, who was Freeman’s first wife. She grew up with Morgan and Jeanette, and they became really close, and their relationship was not broken when Jeanette divorced Freeman, instead, they remained friends.
However, after Myrna’s claims, the public got to realize that Morgan and E’Dena could be more than just friends who used to be relatives. The accusations hurt his career greatly and he went through a rough time trying to ger acting roles, but they just were not there for him in the middle of the controversy.
He even had to give interviews about the topic where he defended himself from the incest accusations made by his ex, but fortunately for him, he didn’t need to prove anything in the court because no legal charges were pressed.
In 2015, E’Dena was the fatal victim of her boyfriend, who took her life away a few months after speaking about her “grandpa feelings”. A tragic ending to a very strong accusation.
The man, who was found guilty for the assassination, declared that he was a witness of their affair and that was the reason for his crime.
