Katherine Heigl ‘Absolutely Staying’ on Grey’s Anatomy - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Despite the rumors, Katherine Heigl will be scrubbing in next season on Grey’s Anatomy.

“She’s absolutely staying with the show,” ABC entertainment president Stephen McPherson said Wednesday at the Television Critics Association’s annual fall preview, putting to rest growing rumors of a fallout between the actress and the show.

In June, Heigl stunned millions of Grey’s fans, publicly snubbing the show’s writers by withdrawing her name from Emmy consideration, saying, “I did not feel that I was given the material this season to warrant an Emmy nomination.”

More recently, Internet buzz began to build that GA creator Shonda Rhimes was going to kill off her character Izzie with a life-threatening brain tumor.

But McPherson says contrary to the rumors, Heigl is returning–and getting a juicy storyline: “There’s an unbelievable storyline for her which is really central to everything that’s going to go on this season. We’re really excited about that.” –Madeleine
