George Confirms Grey’s Anatomy Exit

Posted on 07 March 2010 by greysanatomy

Melissa George has confirmed that she is leaving Grey’s Anatomy.

The 32-year-old, who plays intern Sadie Harris, told Entertainment Weekly that she had chosen to leave, but insisted that she had nothing but praise for the programme.

“I love the show so much. I’ve made some beautiful friends,” she said. “I love T.R. Knight. I love Patrick Dempsey, Justin Chambers… I adore Ellen Pompeo. I think she’s a strong, incredible woman. And Katherine Heigl is the most beautiful creature on Earth.”

The Australian actress joined the ABC show last November, in a deal that reportedly secured her around eight episodes with the opportunity to become a series regular.

However, she revealed that she chose to depart the medical drama in order to “do something else”, adding that her exit “won’t be a big send-off, but it’s really cool what they do”.

A Grey’s insider said: “Melissa’s arc came to a natural end. Everyone at the show adores her. We’re genuinely sad to see her go.”
