The baby boom continues in Hollywood: this time, it’s “Grey’s Anatomy” actress Ellen Pompeo. She and husband Chris Ivery are expecting their first child. Ellen has spoken many times in the last year about her desire to have children with Avery. In an October 2008 interview with Allure, Pompeo said, “I’ve got to get on it, because the clock is ticking.” Looks like Ellen beat that clock.
Ellen Pompeo and her husband, Chris Ivery, are starting a family together, her rep, Jennifer Allen, confirms to PEOPLE.
“It’s great news,” says Allen. “They’re ecstatic.”
The Grey’s Anatomy star, 39, and Ivery, 41, a music producer, were married by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in a low-key ceremony in November 2007. The couple met in a grocery store in 2003 and began dating six months later.
Pompeo, who’s recently been spotted shopping for baby gear around Los Angeles, is not the only Seattle Grace doctor having a baby in real life: Costar Chyler Leigh and her husband, Nathan West, are expecting her third child, a girl, in May.
Congrats to the couple! I think they will make good parents. I do like Ellen and Chris together- they look great together and seem very into each other. The big question is, will Ellen’s pregnancy be written into “Grey’s”? It’s going to be tough to conceal a pregnancy on a woman as petite as Pompeo. Does that mean McDreamy is going to be a dad on the show? Could be interesting.
Ellen Pompeo is shown out at Whole Foods on 4/19/09. She is also shown with Chris Ivery at a Lakers game in Los Angeles on 1/25/09. Photos: Fame.

They don’t even need to write her pregnancy into the script. There’s like a month in between each new episode of Grey’s. At the rate they air new episodes, they only need to shoot about two more before the season ends!
