‘Grey’s Anatomy’ to lose Jessica Capshaw, Sarah Drew

March 8 (UPI) — Grey’s Anatomy is losing longtime stars Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew.

Capshaw and Drew, who play Arizona Robbins and April Kepner on the ABC series, will depart the medical drama after Season 14, according to Deadline.

“The characters of Arizona and April are permanently woven into the fabric of Grey’s Anatomy thanks to the extraordinary work of Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew,” showrunner Krista Vernoff said.

“As writers, our job is to follow the stories where they want to go and sometimes that means saying goodbye to characters we love,” she added. “It has been a joy and privilege to work with these phenomenally talented actresses.”

Drew confirmed the news in a post on her Twitter account Thursday.
