IS IZZIE PLANNING A RETURN?
Camilla Luddington is excited about the idea of Katherine Heigl returning to Grey ’s Anatomy.
The actress quit the medical drama after season 6 amid reports suggesting she and creator Shonda Rhimes had fallen out, but rumours persist that she’s planning to reprise her character, Izzie Stevens, for a possible return to the show, and the British Luddington, who will be in the thick of the storyline if she does, is all for it.
Luddington, who plays Dr. Jo Karev — the wife of Izzie’s ex — on the show, told People TV’s Chatter live on Twitter: “I actually think it’s kind of a fun idea ... I just think it’d be juicy; it’d bring maybe a little bit of drama.”
Heigl, who was part of the original Grey ’s cast and who’s married to American singer Josh Kelley, claimed she quit Grey ’s Anatomy to spend more time with her family.
