Greys Anatomy Season 19 has just been renewed by ABC.

After months of speculation and rumors that the medical drama could end after Season 18, the network made the surprise announcement earlier this month.

Fans of Ellen Pompeo and her co-stars couldnt be more thrilled with the news, but there are some claims suggesting that Greys Anatomy Season 19 shouldnt have been renewed.

Life & Style, in its Jan. 31 issue, claimed that there are too many controversies going on in the set of Greys Anatomy. First, Pompeo previously claimed that she wants the series to end after Season 18. She also said that she would try to convince her co-stars that its time to bid the medical drama goodbye.

Shes being called a hypocrite who gave in to greed. Ellen has clearly lost interest in the show, but she just didnt want to give up that fat paycheck, an unnamed source said.

The unnamed source also claimed that Pompeo is secretly jealous of her co-stars. Even though shes the one whos getting the biggest paycheck, the lead star also wants to get the best reviews and comments from fans.

Ellen has a history of getting jealous of her castmates especially Sandra Oh. The chip on her shoulder is probably why Ellen is such a diva on set now. She bosses everyone around, the unnamed source claimed.

To make things worse, the unnamed source described the atmosphere on the set of Greys Anatomy as toxic.

The environment on Greys is toxic, and Ellen isnt the only one at fault. Theres so much backstabbing and bullying, HR gets inundated with complaints, the unnamed source concluded.

Following the shows renewal, series creator Shonda Rhimes expressed her excitement via a statement with Deadline.

I couldn't be more excited that we can continue to tell the stories of Meredith, Bailey, Richard, and all the other doctors at Gray Sloan Memorial for another season. This is a true testament to Krista Vernoff, the cast, crew, and all the writers who keep audiences on the edge of their seats week after week. And it wouldn't be possible without the generations of incredible fans who have supported 'Grey's Anatomy' for so many years, Rhimes said.

Last month, Pompeo said that shes been trying to convince everyone that its time for Greys Anatomy to end. But she also suggested that shes not after the generous paycheck that shes getting contrary to what the publication said.

I feel like I'm the super naive one who keeps saying, But what's the story going to be, what story are we going to tell? And everyone's like, Who cares, Ellen? It makes a gazillion dollars, she said.

Two years ago, Pompeo also suggested that shes ready to bid her character goodbye. After all, her contract was already expiring at the end of Season 17.

I mean, this is the last year of my contract right now... I don't know that this is the last year? But it could very well be, she told Variety.

In 2018, Pompeo also said that she was ready to leave the show.

I am really feeling like we have told the majority of the stories we can tell. Its about time that I mix it up. I got to keep doing it man because were touching lives and making a difference, Pompeo told Entertainment Weekly.

Last year, the actress admitted that shes been trying to get away from Greys Anatomy for as long as she could.

Ive been trying to get away for years. I have been trying. Its not because I havent been trying. I have strong relationships at the network and they have been very, very, very good to me and have incentivized me to stay, she explained.

Now that Greys Anatomy Season 19 has been renewed, fans couldnt help but think this will be the final run for the hit medical drama.
