Grey's Anatomy Season 22: Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
Okay, Grey's Anatomy fans, let's talk about Season 22! After that gut-punch of a Season 21 finale, I'm dying to know what's next for our favorite doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial. The rumor mill is churning, the cast is shifting, and the drama is about to hit fever pitch. So, grab a coffee (or a tissue—you know how this show gets), and let's unpack everything we know about the release date, who's in the cast, and what crazy twists are coming in Season 22. Grey's Anatomy Season 22 Release Date Rumours
ABC's already given the green light for Grey's Anatomy Season 22, and it's set to land in fall 2025. They're keeping their Thursday night tradition alive, slotting it at 10/9c after 9-1-1 and the shiny new 9-1-1: Nashville spinoff. No exact premiere date yet, but if we had to guess, we're probably looking at late September or early October 2025. Grey's Anatomy Season 22 Cast Updates
The Grey's Anatomy cast is like a revolving door of familiar faces and new blood, and Season 22 is no exception. The Season 21 finale left us gasping with that hospital explosion, so let's break down who's likely returning. Ellen Pompeo as Meredith Grey
Chandra Wilson (Miranda Bailey) and James Pickens Jr. (Richard Webber)
The Main Squad : Kevin McKidd (Owen Hunt), Kim Raver (Teddy Altman), Camilla Luddington (Jo Wilson), Caterina Scorsone (Amelia Shepherd), Chris Carmack (Link Lincoln), Anthony Hill (Winston Ndugu), Alexis Floyd (Simone Griffith), Harry Shum Jr. (Benson Kwan), Adelaide Kane (Jules Millin), and Niko Terho (Lucas Adams) are all set to return. Phew, that's a lot of familiar faces!

Phew, that's a lot of familiar faces! Jason George (Ben Warren)
Trevor Jackson What's Next for Grey Sloan? Storylines to Expect
The Season 21 finale was pure Grey's Anatomy chaos—an explosion caused by a flammable tank during a hostage crisis. Season 22 will pick up right where we left off, dealing with the aftermath. Here's what's on the horizon: The Explosion's Aftermath
That blast is going to shake things up big time. Will everyone survive? Link and Jo were expecting twins, so any injury to Link could hit hard. The writers love throwing curveballs, so expect some emotional rescues and tough medical calls to kick off the season. Meredith's Big Fight
Meredith's decision to leak her Alzheimer's research against Catherine Fox's orders is a game-changer. With Catherine possibly facing a cancer diagnosis (those liver lesions!), this storyline could get messy. Will Meredith face consequences, or will she save the day? Romance and Drama Trevor Jackson's character is trouble for Lucas and Simone's romance. That one-night stand with Simone? Yeah, it's not over.
Jo's pregnancy and her marriage to Link are at a turning point, especially with the explosion threatening their future.
Look out for smaller arcs, like Molly and Kwan's new spark or Teddy and Owen navigating their rocky marriage. Medical Mayhem
Grey's always delivers jaw-dropping medical cases, and Season 22 will be no different. From rare surgeries to ethical dilemmas, the show keeps us hooked with stories that feel real and raw.

The Golden Bachelor's Mel Owens Offers Mea Culpa for ‘Insensitive' Comments About Older Women: ‘I've Learned a Lot'
The new star of The Golden Bachelor was a little tarnished by recent comments he made about dating older women, but he's trying to make amends. In a new interview with Glamour, Mel Owens — who is set to star in the second season of ABC's senior dating competition — confronts the backlash he received when he said in a podcast interview in June that he'd eliminate any contestants age 60 or older. (Owens is 66, for the record.) More from TVLine Matt Damon and Ken Jennings Risk It All on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire - But Did They Win Big? ABC Moves Up Premiere Date for 9-1-1, 9-1-1: Nashville and Grey's Anatomy Joshua Jackson Admits He's 'Bummed Out' by Doctor Odyssey Cancellation: 'It Was a Really Fun Show' Owens is now backtracking on those comments, saying they 'were a mistake by me. It's unfair. It's insensitive… and I want to earn it back.' Owens is currently two weeks into shooting his season of The Golden Bachelor, and he reveals he apologized to the women as well: 'When I first walked in, I addressed it. I apologized to them. I said, 'It was unfair, insensitive. I want to earn it back. Just give me the chance.'' The women on Owens' season are in their 60s, he says, and he was 'absolutely shocked' at how 'active' and 'brilliant' they are. (ABC has not yet revealed the women competing in Mel's season.) They also got a little revenge on him, he hints: 'One of the dates was a roast. It was brutal. They were killing me… It was good because I earned that, and I took it and I deserved it, and it landed squarely on me.' Owens blames his controversial comments on his lack of familiarity with the show: 'I didn't know the age range because I wasn't watching it. I'm thinking, to me, the age range was 45 to 60. That's my age range. I'm thinking that's the gold years for me.' He also says he preferred younger women because 'my reference… was when I was dating at 39, 40. I hadn't dated in 26 years, so I had no clue.' He hopes fans who wrote off the show after his comments will give it another chance: 'Hopefully the show will show that the women that are in their golden years, that are doing these amazing things. It's inspirational.' The experience so far has been 'life-altering' for him, he adds: 'I've learned a lot.' Owens' season of The Golden Bachelor premieres Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 8/7c on ABC.

Jessica Simpson suggests ‘mistakes' were made by estranged husband in candid comments about divorce
Jessica Simpson is not sugarcoating her heartbreak. Simpson, 45, opened up about her unexpected split from Eric Johnson after 10 years of marriage. Although the "Irresistible" singer revealed that the separation wasn't something she saw coming, Simpson didn't shy away from acknowledging that both she and Johnson made missteps in their relationship. "I choose love because if I chose to be resentful or if I chose to let the pain of it overwhelm me, I would fail," she told Parade. She added, "And so I had to choose love and loving people through their mistakes. If I'm going to love through my mistakes, I have to love others through their mistakes. And that really was probably the biggest lesson of all." While Simpson looks ahead and puts the past behind her, she's also returning to music following a 15-year hiatus. In March, she released an EP called "Nashville Canyon, Part 1," and in September, she's set to release the follow-up, "Nashville Canyon, Part 2." "When I was in Nashville and recording, I was going through a really hard time, an unexpected change of life," Simpson reflected. "I don't think I've ever been so confused. But I didn't let the confusion, the heartbreak, the negativity of that hold me back." Simpson emphasized her determination to remain strong — not just for herself, but for her kids and even Johnson. The "Take My Breath Away" singer explained that she needed "to get to a place where I can have grace and compassion for the situation — for the sake of my kids — and be strong for myself, for my kids, for my family, even for Eric. I am a leader." Simpson shares three children with Johnson — daughters Maxwell and Birdie and son Ace. As she goes through a transitional chapter in her life, Simpson said she's looking on the brighter side of things. "It is so important to bright‑side the s--- out of things. I'm a very optimistic person, and I know everything happens for a reason, and I know the truth sets you free." Reps for Simpson did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. In January, Simpson shared that the couple "have been living separately" but did not reveal any details on the timeline of their split. "Eric and I have been living separately, navigating a painful situation in our marriage," Simpson previously said in a statement to People. "Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family."
