[Spoiler alert: Greys Anatomy Season 16.] Sorry, Greys Anatomy fans the messy triangle between Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd), Amelia Shepherd (Caterina Scorsone), and Atticus Link Lincoln (Chris Carmack) is far from over. For weeks, viewers as well as our beloved characters have been stressed about the father of Amelias child. However, in the 13th episode titled Save the Last Dance for Me the neurosurgeon decided against a paternity test. So why didnt Amelia reveal the father of her baby on Greys Anatomy? Theres more to this story than meets the eye.

In the Greys Anatomy Season 16 premiere titled Nothing Left to Cling To Amelia learns about her pregnancy after a visit with Carina DeLuca (Stefania Spampinato). At this point, Amelia and Owen are broken up and she is dating Link. Meanwhile, Owen and Teddy (Kim Raver) are gearing up to raise a family together.

Regardless, by the time the episode ends, the paternity of Amelias baby is questioned. But as season 16 continues, its clear Amelia believes the father is Link. Then when she tells him the news, Link is excited and ready to dive in. However, that feeling doesnt last for long.

In the Greys Anatomy Season 16 fall finale titled Lets All Go to the Bar Amelia gets an ultrasound. And it turns out, she is 24 weeks pregnant, rather than 20. So its possible Amelias baby is Owens and not Links.

Eventually, Amelia gathers up the courage to tell Link the truth. That said, she doesnt want to get a paternity test since she made her decision and wants to be with Link. At first, Link is fine with Amelias decision. But he reconsiders and wants to take the test.

Then in episode 13, Amelia puts her foot down. She doesnt want to take the test. As Link is stressing out in the plant room, Amelia texts her boyfriend. Im sorry, she writes. I didnt run the test. I need time.

Link stares at his phone in disbelief.

When speaking with Variety on Feb. 13, Greys Anatomy showrunner, Krista Vernoff, delved into the drama surrounding Amelias baby, explaining why the character is having such a difficult time facing the paternity of her unborn child.

She is not going to play by anyone elses rules, Vernoff said. And she is protecting her own heart and her own pregnancy and her own sanity at whatever cost.

The showrunner later added: She is figuring out what it is on her own terms. This character has learned how to listen to her own body and shes been through one very traumatic pregnancy. And the feelings that came up in her body were not feelings that she wants to navigate during this pregnancy. So shes looking to take care of herself and her baby.

But despite isolating herself from Link at this moment, Vernoff said Amelia isnt alone and will likely find refuge in her sisters, Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Maggie Pierce (Kelly McCreary).

Vernoff also confirmed the father of Amelias baby wont be revealed for some time. I know the fans want an answer as to whose baby this is, and theyre not going to get it as soon as they wish for it, she said.

Greys Anatomy fans have already expressed their frustrations in regards to Amelias story storyline. Now, viewers can expect more in the upcoming weeks but thats sort of the point.

The way weve written this story, from week to week, Im sort of on her side, and then Im on Links side, and then I dont really know, she said. I think it sparks a lot of conversation of, Is she being selfish to not find out or is he being selfish to want to know? It is kind of the question that we ask.
