Tracy Morgan's ex-wife, Sabina Morgan, is joining the "30 Roc! k" star's celebrity friends Louis C.K. and director Judd Apatow in calling for a video from his crash site to be removed from the Internet.
Sabina Morgan, who has three children with the comedian, is demanding that TMZ take down a video from the accident that shows Ardie Fuqua being pulled from the wreckage of the New Jersey Turnpike crash Saturday. Fuqua was one of five others traveling with Morgan from a comedy show in Delaware.
"They need to take the footage down," she told the Daily News in an exclusive interview. "They are destroying my family."
On Wednesday Louis C.K., 46, put his star power behind Fuqua's daughter, Krizya Fuqua, who wrote a plea to TMZ.com about its video.
"They don't understand how hurtful it is to see my father be dragged out of the wreckage," Krizya Fuqua wrote in an Instagram post.
"I understand people want to know and people want to be updated, but enough is enough. This is hurting my heart so bad that this video is posted for all to see. No one should see my father this way."
Morgan, Fuqua and the "30 Rock" actor's assistant Jeffrey Millea were all critically injured in the accident. The "Cop Out" actor's longtime friend and mentor, comedian James (Jimmy Mack) McNair, was killed in the crash, and comedian Harris Stanton sustained minor injuries.
"They are hurting (Ardie's) daughter," Sabina Morgan told The News. "This is just not good. I'm heartbroken right now ... We're hanging in there, but this isn't helping. It's ridiculous."
Louis C.K. reiterated the sentiment on Twitter, writing "Take it down TMZ. Now. Please."

Apatow went directly to TMZ boss Harvey Levin, tweeting at him to "please take down the accident video."
Several of the celebrities' followers have backed the request, retweeted the plea and issued condolences to Fuqua's daughter.
