After months of NO comment, Morgan Freeman and his step-granddaughter E’Dena Hines are finally speaking out about those reports of them hooking and engaged to be married.

The 74-year-old Oscar winner and the 29-year-old granddaughter of Freeman’s first wife, Jeanette Adair Bradshaw say the rumors are FALSE!

“The recent reports of any pending marriage or romantic relationship of me to anyone are defamatory fabrications from the tabloid media design to sell papers,” Freeman said in a statement obtained by BMS. “What is even more alarming is that these fabrications are now being [picked up] by the legitimate press as well.”

“These stories about me and my granddaughter are not only untrue, they are also very hurtful to me and my family”, says the step-granddaughter.

The National Enquirer latched on to the idea of a romance between them back in 2009.

The Million Dollar Baby star and Bradshaw divorced in 1979 after 12 years of marriage. He and second wife Myrna Colley-Lee split up in 2007 and finalized their divorce in September 2010.
