I'm sorry. I am reposting this and deleting the previous entry because it has what can be considered a spoiler outside a cut.
Katherine Heigl: 'I Am Done' With 'Grey's Anatomy'
After months of speculation, Katherine Heigl has finally confirmed that she is leaving "Grey's Anatomy."
In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly's Michael Aussiello, the 31-year-old actress declared that she is parting ways with the popular ABC medical drama after six seasons.
"I am done," Katherine told the mag. "We just finalized our agreement. Everyone had been working really hard to find an amicable and gracious way of letting go and moving on. It's sad but it's what I wanted."
Despite landing multiple big screen roles over the years, the actress said her motivation to leave the series wasn't for bigger and better projects -- but rather due to her growing family.
"I started a family and it changed everything for me," Katherine, who took a three-month leave from "Grey's" this year to spend more time with her newly-adopted daughter, explained. "It changed my desire to work full-time."
Katherine and husband Josh Kelley adopted daughter Naleigh last year.
Katherine was slated to be in the final five "Grey's" episodes this season, but that plan has been scrapped - a change she hopes the viewers will be understanding about.
"I know I'm disappointing the fans," she told the mag. "I just had to make a choice. I hope I made the right one." The January 21 episode was the actress' last as Dr. Izzie Stevens.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, the actress has a host of movies on the way, including "Killers," which co-stars Ashton Kutcher and is due out on June 4, and "Life As We Know It," which pairs her opposite Josh Duhamel.
Katherine is also prepping for the role of Stephanie Plum, the protagonist in a series of novels from Janet Evanovich, which she will bring to life on the big screen. And earlier this month, she revealed her first step in her Stephanie transformation by changing her blonde locks to a deep, dark brown.
Some bullshit about other roles on the source here
That being said, also please refrain from posting news about the show/cast without any actual news on your post. A source with a working link is nice, but please, out of consideration, don't make your post only a link to another website.
