Freeman's attorney William R Wright told The AP that the couple were granted a divorce in a Mississippi court on September 15.
"It was done without a trial," he said. "Everybody is glad it's over."
Terms of the divorce are to remain sealed, according to the lawyer.
Wright stated that his client and Colley-Lee will both continue to live in Tallahatchie County where the two-time Oscar nominee owns a ranch.
The couple announced that they would split in 2007 after 26 years of marriage.
