Ellen Pompeo Revealed That She And T.R. Knight Were “In Tears” Throughout Their Entire “Grey’s Anatomy” Sex Scene Because It Was So “Uncomfortable And Awkward”
Ellen Pompeo is looking back on one of her most “uncomfortable” moments on the Grey’s Anatomy set.

Ellen, now 55, has played the leading character Meredith Grey on the hit ABC series since 2005. In 2023, she took a step back from the show and now only appears in a few episodes.
Back in Season 2, Ellen had to film a love scene with her costar T.R. Knight, who played George O’Malley. During the sex, Meredith memorably breaks down into tears, eventually prompting George to storm out.
