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.

Travis Kelce annoyes Taylor Swift. The singer was left Uncomfortable, does she still love him?
Travis Kelce, a star for the Kansas City Chiefs, was allegedly making his girlfriend, pop star Taylor Swift, feel uncomfortable at a recent charity event hosted by Patrick Mahomes.
Travis Kelce yelled “Viva Las Vegas” when it was his turn at the mic, which made Swift cringe because he is known for being loud and likes to party.Jackie Gonzalez, an attendee, took a picture of the incident, which showed a moment of conflict between the famous pair, who began dating in August 2023. Gonzalez noticed that Swift made a telling move when she looked at Brittany Mahomes, shook her head, and said, “That again…” in a quiet voice to show her anger. “I am not able to do it.”Even though there was an awkward moment, the evening showed how much the couple loves each other. According to witnesses, Kelce was very affectionate with Swift. He kissed her and grabbed her playfully, which Swift laughed off. His physical displays of love made her feel better, even when fans were around.This behavior is similar to Kelce’s usual way of life, which almost put his college football career at risk before his brother, Jason Kelce, helped him calm down. Travis is in his mid-30s now, but he doesn’t seem to be changing how crazy he is.
