Katherine Heigl Leaves Grey’s Anatomy to Adopt

Poor kid. I mean, this is slightly a step up from being stranded in Korea doomed to a future of sewing together Abercrombie and Fitch t-shirts, but still this baby is going to be chain smoking by the time it is five and know the words to Beyonce’s “Diva.”

Reps for Izzy Stevens confirmed that Katherine is taking a hiatus from “Grey’s Anatomy” and flying out to pick up her baby. Her and her husband, Josh Kelley, have been secretly working on adoption plans for 6 months. I hear that Korea is in the top 5 of countries to adopt from.

So they finally wrapped things up in the process last week and are now headed out to pick up their awaiting baby. The 10 month old baby’s name is Nayleigh and since that is too taxing for Katherine to pronounce they are going to call her Leigh.

“She is thrilled,” a source close to the situation told Radar Online. “She and Josh are so happy.” The idea of adoption is nothing new for the actress, as she told USA Today two years that it’s something she’s “always planned.”

“I’m done with the whole idea of having my own children,” Heigl said. It doesn’t seem like any fun. I don’t think it’s necessary to go through all of that.”

What? Princess doesn’t want to have to actually go through the miracle of pushing a roast through a Pringles can. There’s surprise. Wasn’t she just whining about 17 hour work days? Yeah, I hate to break it to her…but the screaming, crying drool machine she is about to get doesn’t clock in and out or have ciggie breaks.

Quotables:

Crabbie’s Hollywood - “Some kids hit the jackpot, being adopted by Angelina Jolie or Madonna. And some get adopted by Katherine Heigl. Which still isn’t as bad as being adopted by Sharon Stone.”

Dlisted – “And if Katherine Hagel is actually planning to travel to Korea to pick up her baby friend, can someone please mix-up her plane tickets and send her to North Korea instead. Hagel + Kim Jong-il = BFFs.”
