Off-Limits "Grey's Anatomy": Ellen Pompeo Bans Daughter from Watching Embarrassing Scenes
Actress Ellen Pompeo laments absence from daughter's "Grey's Anatomy" episode
Facebook Twitter Whatsapp E-Mail Print Copy Link Ellen Pompeo, renowned actress of "Grey's Anatomy," has set boundaries for her young daughter. Her reasoning behind this decision is causing quite a buzz since many of her daughter's classmates have already caught episodes.
In the hit series "Grey's Anatomy," Ellen Pompeo portrays the character Dr. Meredith Grey. However, she's keen on keeping her youngest daughter, Sienna, away from viewing her on-screen antics. Surprisingly, it's not the dramatic moments she's concerned about, but the intimate scenes[1].
Recently on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Pompeo opened up about how the popular show is garnering a new perspective from younger generations, even in its 20th year. With a six-year-old son, Eli, and a 15-year-old daughter, Stella, she shares with music producer Chris Ivery, she wants Sienna to steer clear of the globally acclaimed format[2].
"Absolutely Not My Underwear on TV":During the chat with Kimmel, Pompeo revealed, "My 15-year-old daughter has seen the show, and now my 10-year-old wants to see it too. She's not quite ready yet, but many kids in her class have already seen it." Although she doesn't wish to pass judgment on her daughter's classmates' parents, she admitted, "I don't want my daughter to catch me in my underwear on TV." This has led to some captivating discussions during school pick-ups[1].
As a mother, Pompeo prioritizes her children above all else[3]. After stepping back from her main role in "Grey's Anatomy" in season 19, she revealed to Drew Barrymore on her talk show in December 2022 that she was "super happy" and eager to invest more time with her children[4]. Despite this, she expressed gratitude to her fans for nearly two decades of devotion via Instagram[4].
