“Grey’s Anatomy” fan favorites Jessica Capshaw (Arizona) and Sarah Drew (April) will exit the drama at the end of the current season. “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. As writers, our job is to follow the stories where they want to go, and sometimes that means saying goodbye to characters we love. It has been a joy and a privilege to work with these phenomenally talented actresses,” co-showrunner and executive producer Krista Vernoff said in a statement. Capshaw and Drew were apparently blindsided by the news.
