The end for one of our favorite characters on Grey’s Anatomy is near, and there’s still so much we don’t know about her departure. On previews for the penultimate episode of Season 14 of Grey’s Anatomy, April is on a gurney and everyone is crying! What does it all mean? Does April die on Grey’s Anatomy? Is this one of those things that Shonda Rhimes does to throw us off? With only two episodes left of the season, things better start getting finalized — stat.
Fans were shocked when it was announced that Sarah Drew (April) and Jessica Capshaw (Arizona) were leaving Grey’s Anatomy. The reason? Showrunner Krista Vernoff explained that the characters had just run their respective courses. “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 said in a statement to Deadline. “It has been a joy and a privilege to work with these phenomenally talented actresses.” That may be true, but we’re still not ready to say goodbye to these characters, ones that we’ve become so close to over the past decade. So far, it looks like Arizona will be moving to New York City to be closer to her daughter, but April’s fate looks dicey.
