“I Can’t Move It,” the Real Reason Morgan Freeman Wore Only One Glove at the Oscars

When Morgan Freeman escorted Margot Robbie on stage at the 2023 Oscars, his left arm caught the attention of many. In fact, the 85-year-old actor wore an elbow-length satin black glove, which raised many concerns. And the reason behind it goes back to a heartbreaking event that transformed Freeman’s life 15 years ago.

Back in 2008, the Shawshank Redemption star was injured in a serious car accident that left him with a paralyzed left hand.

After the crash, Freeman had to undergo a 4-hour surgery in order to deal with his broken left shoulder, arm, and elbow.

A couple of years after the unfortunate event, the acclaimed actor opened up about his struggle, saying ’’I suffered nerve damage, and it hasn’t gotten better, I can’t move it.’’

He added, ’’If you don’t move your hand, it will swell up. Do you know you move your hand about a million times a day?’’

And even though doctors had reassured him that his hand would get better by 2011, this unfortunately didn’t happen to be the case.

Freeman ended up with permanent nerve damage and is still unable to wiggle his fingers.

And it seems that even 15 years later, the Oscar-winning actor is still dealing with the consequences of his accident, as we saw him wearing a glove during the ceremony.

According to experts, the compression glove works by lightly squeezing the veins in one’s hand to support blood circulation and can even help to manage tingling, pain, and swelling.

Bride Demands Her Bridesmaids Pay for Their Dresses She Bought for the Ceremony

We weren’t expecting a financial shock when my closest friend Emily asked us to be her bridesmaids; instead, we expected a happy day. Karma suddenly stepped in during the drama, putting our friendship to the test and making the wedding one to remember. Excitement was in the air in the bridal suite as Emily, the soon-to-be bride, fluttered around verifying specifics. She distributed exquisite bridesmaid dresses, each one a work of art with delicate lacework and pastel hues.

We were all thrilled by Emily’s dazzling smile as she saw James at the altar during the lovely outdoor ceremony. Even the pragmatic me started crying at the sincere promises. There was music and laughter throughout the event. Emily revealed something shocking to us at a private moment: she wanted us to pay her back $1,200 for each of the gowns. We hadn’t budgeted for this, which shocked me. A towering wedding cake that had been misordered at fifty kilograms came and caused a ruckus before we could reply. When Emily saw the enormous cake bill, she became anxious. As her bridesmaids, we spoke up and reassured her that genuine friendship isn’t based on financial gain.

We combined our resources to cover the cake, making the incident one to remember. Previous issues vanished as Emily and James danced together for the first time. The day, which was full of chaos and love, gave us insightful lessons about the power of friendship, humility, and giving. Notwithstanding flaws, the event turned into a treasured remembrance of unbreakable ties.
