IS MORGAN FREEMAN DATING STEP-GRANDDAUGHTER?!: National Enquirer says revelation is part of wife's divorce documents.

*Under the all-caps heading "World Exclusive Bombshell," the National Enquirer is reporting that Morgan Freeman, 72, has had an affair for the past 10 years with his own 27-year-old step-granddaughter.

The tabloid quotes an unnamed "source" who says their relationship began when she was a teen and not only contributed to his split from Myrna, his wife of 25 years, but also led to his breakup with his longtime mistress, former schoolteacher Mary Joyce Hays.

The woman in question, E'Dena Hines, is the granddaughter of Morgan's first wife, Jeanette Adair Bradshaw, and was raised by Morgan and Myrna "since she was a little girl," said the unnamed source, described by the Enquirer as a "close family insider."

"Myrna said E'dena told her that when she was a teenager, she and Morgan went to dinner at a friend's house one evening. Both had been drinking, and when they returned home, Morgan attempted to have sex with her. They stopped just short of having intercourse, said the source.

"E'Dena explained to Myrna that she stopped Morgan from going any further."

Myrna confronted Morgan, and he agreed to leave E'Dena alone - but unbeknownst to Myrna, the relationship continued for years, said the source.

E'Dena has also been Morgan's escort to several public events, including last summer's premiere of the Batman film, "The Dark Knight."

"Nobody thought anything of it, because she would be introduced as his 'granddaughter,'" The family insider said. "It's not technically incest, because they are not related by blood...[but] Morgan is trying desperately to keep his divorce out of open court so all the shameful facts won't become public."
