It seems as if Morgan Freeman is having a run of bad luck lately. Days after the Academy Award-winning actor was involved a potentially life threatening car accident, his business partner announced that Freeman and his wife Myrna Colley-Lee are calling it quits after 24 years of marriage.

The couples’ attorney Bill Luckett confirms the rumors, stating that the pair “are involved in a divorce action.” He adds “for legal and practical purposes, [Freeman and Colley-Lee] have been separated since December of 2007.”
