M.P. asks from Minneapolis, MN on January 28, 2012

Scale 1 to 10, How Wrong Is It to Marry Your STEP Grand-daughter

I dont care if they are NOT blood, you take in a child to care for and love, you dont go marrying her when she is 27.... and start sleeping with her at 17. Thats just wrong on so many levels.

Morgan Freeman, if these rumors are true I will burn all your movies I own.

Anyway who else finds it as disgusting as I?

So What Happened?™

remember ladies and gents I did say IF these RUMORS are true.... as it has not been confirmed... and actually the Huffington post reports he DID raise the step granddaughter along with his 2nd wife after divorcing the first wife. Its not just the National Enquirer... even if its rumors, something had to start them... to close? hugs? allegations? the step is quoted to have said that they had a sexual relationship... maybe not marriage is happening but I fear that its not plutonic love. ANYWAY if its a rumor I will be glad to take back my thoughts of course. Who am I to judge? well is that what anyone's opinion is? a judgement.

Cheryl O - I agree with your view. I also loved an older man at 17 and felt I was completely mature enough to handle that. While our relationship was not sexual. I was also NOT related to him in any way blood or family friend. It never worked out and that was the best I think. I had so much more growing up to do, as I found out through the years. Some seventeen year old's can and do pull it off. thankfully now she is 27 and completely able to make her own decisions and feel its as much as her issue as his at this point. She now can make the choice to make a fool of themselves and rip a family apart, or not.

This was reported by the National Enquirer... I am withholding any judgment at this time. And even if, who am I to judge others?

OK, did anyone check the date on this?

The articles I found when I googled this, including the link supplied by someone, are from 2009 - that's almost THREE years ago. I think if this were true it would have happened by now or we all would have heard a lot more about it.

I call Bull$#it. This isn't even news.

Yes, it would be wrong, creepy, etc. (famous person or not) and only slightly less creepy if there were no actual family relationship other than name.

10. It is wrong period to marry within your family. I don't care if they are second cousins twice removed. Family is family and not for marrying eachother.

Fortunately, Freeman has come out as saying this is nothing more than an "absurd" and completely fictitious rumor. I sincerely hope that's the case.

The wrong part is that he "dated her while she was a teen"..

Otherwise, they are not blood related, but totally poor taste and I am assuming tearing a family apart. Inexcusable.

While I don't condone an older man - like in this situation - his 72 to her 27 - YIKES

http://www.nowmagazine.co.uk/celebrity-news/384639/morgan...

I don't think it's right when a 27 or 30 year old interested in a 17 year old...there's something TOTALLY wrong with this picture if a "man" of that age is interested in someone so much younger. She's still a "girl" - with stars in her eyes...telling everyone that we just don't get it.

Don't burn the movies - donate 'em and get the tax write off!! :) I don't approve....is he trying to relive his youth? Even if he is doing it. It's THEIR life. Not mine.

I have never heard of any of this, not that I keep up with Hollywood. Seriously would something like this surprise you? I don’t know why most people that become famous also become nutty (unless they already were). I like Morgan Freeman as an actor but there are so many more that are child molesters that we never hear about. Maybe this girl is looking for money and nothing really happened, that also happens a lot in Hollywood.
