Tracy Morgan is an Actor and Comedian. He made a name for himself when he was a cast member in shows like “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live.”<\/p>\n
He also appeared in What Men Want, Half Baked, The Star, Superhero, and Head of State.<\/p>\n
Early Life<\/h2>\n
Tracy Morgan’s full name is Tracy Jamel Morgan. He was born in the Bronx, New York, USA, on November 10, 1968. He is African American.<\/p>\n
Tracy Morgan grew up in Brooklyn and is one of five children to Jimmy Morgan and Alicia Morgan. He is the second oldest. He was named after one of his father\u2019s friends who died in the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n
Tracy\u2019s mother, Alicia, brought up the children as a single mother after his father, Jimmy, left. He was six years old at the time. Jimmy was a musician, and he was also in the military. On his return from the war, he became addicted to heroin.<\/p>\n
Tracy attended DeWitt Clinton High School, and in his second year of high school, he found out that his father had AIDS. Just four credits short of graduation, in 1987, he ended up dropping out because he was bullied at school and needed to care for his father. And later that year, Jimmy, who was 39 years old at the time, passed away.<\/p>\n
Tracy then turned to selling drugs until his best friend suggested that he start performing his stand-up comedy on the streets to earn a living. Very soon after that, his best friend was murdered.<\/p>\n

He’s always said that his uncles were very funny when he was growing up. But as he got older, he was introduced to Eddie Murphy, Bill Cosby, Richard Pryor, George Carlin, and Martin Lawrence.<\/p>\n
He is also the biggest fan of Lucille Ball and Jackie Gleason. Listening to each of them talk and be funny simultaneously inspired Tracy Morgan to make a go of it and see how far it would take him.<\/p>\n

In 1984 Tracy Morgan started dating Sabina. She was his girlfriend from high school. In 1987 they went on to get married and together had three sons, Tracy Morgan Jr., Malcolm Morgan, and Gitrid Morgan. Then in 2009, the couple got divorced.<\/p>\n
In 2011 Tracy started dating, Megan Wollover. Megan is a model. On July 2, 2013, the couple welcomed Maven Sonae, their daughter, to the world.<\/p>\n
Tracy and Megan then tied the knot on August 23, 2015. They are currently living in New Jersey.<\/p>\n
Tracy Morgan\u2019s Health Problem<\/h2>\n
In 1996, he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. In an interview with Time, he admitted that it wasn’t until he got sick that he started to take his diabetes seriously.<\/p>\n
Tracy was arrested in 2005 and charged twice with DUI. After being charged the second time, he avoided jail but had to do community service, and he was sentenced to wear a SCRAM (Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring) ankle bracelet.<\/p>\n
In 2010, he had a kidney transplant, forcing him to sit out two episodes of 30 Rock. But his health issues didn\u2019t end there.<\/p>\n
Then in 2012, TMZ had reported that during the Sundance Film Festival, Morgan had attended the award show ceremony, appearing “extremely intoxicated.” While being escorted out, he fell unconscious, landed in an ambulance, and rushed to the hospital.<\/p>\n
TMZ was told by a hospital spokesperson that no alcohol or drugs were found in Tracy Morgan’s system. His rep blamed the collapse on “altitude and exhaustion.”<\/p>\n
On June 7, 2014, Tracy Morgan and a few friends were on their way back from a stand-up gig. According to CNN, while driving along a New Jersey highway, they were struck by a tractor-trailer. Tracy was in critical condition, but his long-time friend, Jimmy Mack McNair, was pronounced dead.<\/p>\n
Then in August of 2014, it was reported that Tracy Morgan had broken his nose, one leg, and his ribs in the crash. He also had no memory of what had happened. And according to Benedict Morelli, his attorney, Morgan had suffered a brain injury.<\/p>\n
After a few weeks of being in a coma, he started rehab, where he spent the rest of the year healing.<\/p>\n
His accident later led to a high-profile lawsuit, and Morgan sued Walmart. It was found out that when the crash had occurred, the truck driver had been driving tired and was awake for 28 hours. The settlement figure was somewhere in the region of around $90 million.<\/p>\n
$2 Million – Bugatti Fender-Bender<\/h2>\n
Tracy Morgan\u2019s settlement from Walmart was amicable enough that the comedian could afford to go out in the spring of 2019 and buy a lovely new Bugatti sports car for $2 million.<\/p>\n
Sadly his excitement was short-lived because a few hours after his purchase, the car was damaged in a fender-bender. A Honda CRV attempted a right turn from the left lane, resulting in the Honda smashing the side of the Bugatti.<\/p>\n
The car was so new it still had the dealer tag on it.<\/p>\n
Tracy Morgan did let his Twitter fans<\/a> know that he was ok. His tweet wrote, “Thanks for any concern, but I am totally fine,” “My NEW CAR? We shall see.”<\/p>\nCareer<\/h2>\n\n\n <\/p>\n
