It doesn’t look like Katherine Heigl is planning to leave Grey’s Anatomy any time soon, according to sources. There’s been a lot speculation about Katherine Heigl’s future plans and whether or not her recent Emmy comments have anything to do with a desire to get out of her contract.
Well, if her plans are to leave the show, it doesn’t look like she’ll be exiting in the near future. Life & Style magazine caught up with the actress at a Josh Kelley performance in LA, and when asked if she had plans to return to Grey’s Anatomy Heigl stated, “Of course, absolutely. Those people are like my family.”
Of course, that doesn’t tell us for certain that Heigl has no plans to get out Grey’s Anatomy as soon as she can, only that she will be coming back next season. So what’s to happen if Grey’s Anatomy loses Izzie? Well, apparently, the show’s producers already have a back up plan in place: “They already have a wish list of who can fill the void,” says an insider. “They will introduce a new, intense blond bombshell who will get people talking about the show like they used to.”
That sounds incredibly vague and ominous. I know there’s a few of you that would love to see Izzie gone, but it looks like a majority of fans would be sad to see Heigl leave. So, I, for one, am glad she’ll be coming back next season. We’ll see what the future holds. I can’t imagine things going well if they keep losing their main characters.
