First the National Enquirer broke the story of a long time affair between award winning actor Morgan Freeman, 72, and his 27-year old step-granddaughter E'Dena Hines, and now the gossip mag is reporting that the pair plan to marry. The relationship between Morgan Freeman and E'Dena Hines is said to have been going on for at least 10 years and while it has been kept hidden, it is now starting to see the light of day.

Myrna Colley-Lee, Morgan Freeman's wife for the past 24 years filed for divorce in June 2009. Shortly after the divorce was announced the National Enquirer broke the story that Freeman had carried on a decade long affair with E'Dena Hines, who he had raised with Myrna Colley-Lee.

E'Dena Hines is the biological granddaughter of Morgan Freemans first wife, Jeanette Adair Bradshaw, who was raised by Freeman and his second wife Myrna Colley-Lee. If the affair really is a decade old that means it started when E'Dena was no older than 17 and a minor. The age of consent in the state of California is 18.

Now that she is 27 and legally able to consent it seems E'Dena Hines is ready to move on from being Morgan Freeman's adulterous lover to become his wife. Once his divorce from Myrna Colley-Lee is finalized Morgan Freeman may end up marrying his step-granddaughter whom he raised... he and Woody Allen should start a "dirty old man's" club.

In a blockbuster World Exclusive The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively that Morgan Freeman plans to marry his step-granddaughter, family sources reveal.

In our June 29 issue, we revealed that sources close to the 72-year-old actor claim that he had carried on a shocking, nearly decade-long affair with his 27-year-old step-granddaughter, E'Dena Hines. She is the granddaughter of Morgan's first wife - whom he and his estranged second wife Myrna raised since she was a young child.

The long-secret relationship led to the breakup of Morgan's marriage, say sources close to Freeman and his wife.

Now, The ENQUIRER has learned that Morgan and E'Dena are planning to wed after Morgan's contentious divorce battle is over!

for someone who started out on Electric Company, educating young children, I think he has educated a young one just a tad too much!

He is very close to 3 times her age but they are not related and both are willing to marry then that is their right but it is not a good idea.

Are there really not enough people on this disgusting planet that he couldn't find someone who didn't call him Grandpa at some time?! Yeah, okay, they're not blood related but it still crosses a line

I really feel this is inapropiate for Mr. Freeman to marry is stepgranddaugter. He is a role model for a lot of young black men and women. I just saw a program regarding his recent approach to the segragated proms they have in his home town of Mississippi. He paid for all expensives for Whites and Black at a local school there to have their prom together. Who will listen to this man now that we seen him in the light of a pediphile, his step granddaughter & him have engaged in a 10 year relationships meaning she had to have been 17 years old. That is not morally correct in my book.

I for one, will never watch another movie with Morgan Freeman in it. He is one sick puppy, and I will never look at him the same again. He basically raped her as a teenager!

They are both being plain stupid. He could have a lot of women but he chooses to be a predator and break a trust. It is just sick. I am sure she is just another Anna Nicole Smith enjoying the money and the fame.

Question: Hey, who would you love and who would you marry if you had not been told who you were supposed to love and marry based on society's dictates?

Answer: You would follow the dictates of your heart-naught else.
