Morgan Freeman Released From Hospital
Actor Morgan Freeman has been released from hospital, just days after he was involved in a serious car crash at the weekend.
Freeman and a female passenger had to be cut free from the wreckage and airlifted to the Regional Medical Centre in Memphis on Sunday night, after the actor lost control of his vehicle on the highway near his home in Mississippi.
Kathy Stringer, a spokeswoman for The Med, said Freeman was discharged today after undergoing surgery, but she gave no further details.
However 4 days after the horrific car crash comes news that the Oscar winner is engaged in a "divorce action" with his wife of 24 years, Myrna Colley-Lee.
Freeman's business partner and attorney Bill Luckett broke the news, telling the Memphis Commercial-Appeal newspaper there is a "divorce action pending," but refusing to give further details.
The car was registered in Meyer's name, and while there's been no official word on the 48-year-old woman's condition, Luckett told the paper she and Freeman are "mutual friends".
"He's got a lot of friends," Luckett said, going on to pre-emptively shoot down rumours of a romantic connection. "There's no juice there. There ain't any juice."
