Grey’s Anatomy’s Ellen Pompeo reveals why she won’t let her daughter watch the show

Grey’s Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo has explained why she won’t let her daughter watch the show.

In a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the actress playing Meredith Grey shared that her 15-year-old child has already watched the medical series, but her 10-year-old isn’t quite prepared to do so just yet.

She mentioned that her 10-year-old is eager to view it, however, she feels she isn’t quite prepared yet. Interestingly, many children from her child’s class have already seen it.

Pompeo clarified the reason behind his daughter not being ready: “She hasn’t quite reached the point where she wants to see me in my underwear on TV, but her school friends already know that side of me, which certainly spices up our carpool talks!

It comes after Pompeo revealed which famous Grey’s Anatomy scene made her eldest daughter cry.

In the show’s season five finale, George O’Malley (T R Knight) is hit by a bus while saving a stranger and is brought into the hospital as a John Doe, as no-one is able to recognise him due to the severity of his injuries. While alone with Meredith, he manages to trace something on her hand: his nickname, 007.

Speaking about viral videos where people express their emotional reactions to specific scenes from Grey, Pompeo commented: “My daughter reacted just like that when she saw the character 007. She actually started crying. I had to capture it on video, and I found myself struggling not to join her.

After leaving Grey’s Anatomy, Pompeo will appear in an upcoming thriller series titled Good American Family, set to premiere on Hulu on March 19. Alongside Pompeo, Mark Duplass and Imogen Faith Reid will also star in this series.

The eight-part series fictionalises the adoption of Natalia Grace by Midwestern couple Kristine and Michael Barnett.

At first, the duo assume that Natalia is a young girl with dwarfism. However, gradually, Kristine becomes suspicious that Natalia might be an adult disguised as a child.

Grey’s Anatomy, season 21, will be aired every Thursday at 10pm Eastern Time on ABC in the United States. If you want to catch up on previous seasons, they are currently streaming on Disney+ in the UK.
