Sarah Drew Speaks About Shocking 'Grey's Anatomy' Exit

Sarah Drew has issued a response to the report that she’s exiting Grey’s Anatomy after season 14 wraps.

“I know you’re sad. I’m sad, too. I haven’t really had time to process the information. I’ve been with it for less than 48 hours so I’m not ready to say my thank yous and give an all encompassing statement. That will come later,” Sarah posed on social media about leaving the show and the role of Dr. April Kepner. “For now, I’d like to say: I love you April and her story isn’t over yet,” she continues. “And the really good news (for me at least), is that I’m here on set shadowing one of my favorite people, Kevin McKidd, with my beloved Grey’s family all this week and next, so I get to process my feelings surrounded by the community that has nourished and nurtured me for almost a decade. For that I am grateful.”

Jessica Capshaw will also be leaving the show, and spoke out about the exit.
