Ellen Pompeo Fires Back at Hate Over 'Grey's Anatomy' Exits

Ellen Pompeo‘s mentions have been blowing up ever since it was announced that Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew would be leaving Grey’s Anatomy at the end of the season.

The 48-year-old actress has already defended herself and said her high salary is not the reason for the exits.

Still, people are attacking her, the show, and the women for the sudden departures.

“We R grateful all of you are so passionate but if you knew these two women the way I know them they would not approve of all this nastiness,” Ellen posted. “They both are super shiny happy people. I know you’re angry but you’re representation couldn’t be further from who these women actually are.”

When a fan questioned, “Aren’t we allowed to be angry at this injustice, though? Going to be two impossible holes to fill,” Ellen responded, “You are but spreading acceptance and love is our message with Greys and what all of the actors try to do with our performances on this show.”
