Actor and missus parted ways in December

‘For legal and practical purposes, [Morgan and Myrna] have been separated since December of 2007.’

Morgan, 71, has 4 children - 2 from his previous marriage to Jeanette Bradshaw and 2 from earlier relationships.

He is currently recovering in the Regional Medical Center in Memphis following extensive surgery on his arm.
