Morgan Freeman has been struck by the evil curse of The Dark Knight yet again.
So we may have been a little sceptical about the whole ‘curse’ thing ever since the term started getting bandied around, but on this evidence it’s hard not to think that maybe, just maybe there are nefarious forces at work. Just days after having a serious car accident, Morgan Freeman and his wife of 24 years are to get a divorce.
According to a friend of Freeman, the divorce had been in the works for a while before the accident even occurred – so don’t go accusing Morgan of having a relationship with Demaris Meyer, the passenger in his car during the accident, that was anything beyond platonic friendship.
We thought about it – purely for comedy effect, of course – but libel is too big a word.
No, this is something that has been around for quite a while in the world of Morgan Freeman and his soon-to-be-ex wife Myrna Colley-Lee, who have been separated since December of 2007. So fortunately it does look like it may well be the work of our old friend coincindence and circumstance – or ‘real life’ as it’s sometimes called – and not the frankly ridiculous notion of a curse on a film Morgan starred in.
While he may have known it was coming for a while, it still can’t be good for the old man, who was hospitalised with a broken arm, a broken elbow and neck injuries, and had to undergo an operation to make sure things healed up properly. Sitting, recouperating in hospital and seeing the news splashed all over can’t be a good feeling – so hey, Morgan, if you’re reading – we’ll try and cheer you up!
Isn’t it strange how utterly awful the film Evan Almighty was?
No, that’s not going to work…
Hey – the narration on March of the Penguins was utter balls compared to David Attenborough‘s!
Ah, he wouldn’t like that either…
Ah, screw it. Hecklerspray isn’t the greatest medicine for aching bones, we can admit that much.
But it’s not all bad for Morgan Freeman – as his friend and business partner Bill Luckett told the press:
“The doctors have said it will be six months to a year before he plays golf again.”
So… hmm… at least that means he won’t have to play golf again for a while. That could be considered a good thing, if you don’t like golf. What do you mean Luckett said more?
“He hates that.”
Ah.
So you’ve starred in one of the biggest movies of all time, but have seen a co-worker die, another arrested for allegedly threatening his family then you yourself have been in a serious car accident requiring surgery, and it’s become public knowledge that you’re getting a divorce.
At least… people like your freckles? Sorry Morgan, we just can’t do this cheering you up thing – it’s too hard.

This is a horribly written article and not one of your remarks was clever or in any way amusing. You should not be allowed to write.

I am with you on this horrible article Shannon H. It amazes me how nobodies, ( like the retard who wrote this article), try to tear apart stars and people in the public eye. Morgan Freeman for one, has to big of a career for this sad sad human being to even think of this crap!!!! So who ever you are just keep on hating cause it fuels great people like Morgan Freeman.
Yahoo you need to rethink about letting this person write articles. It makes you look very bad.
I mean very very BAD!!
