To say that the love lives of the doctors at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital are complicated would be an understatement. In season 17 of Grey’s Anatomy, Jo and Jackson are trying to figure out their relationship status, Maggie and Winston are falling for each other, Owen and Teddy are seemingly over, Amelia and Link are struggling as new parents, and Levi and Nico are still reeling from their breakup – and the season has only just begun. However, outside of the hospital, the love lives of the Grey’s Anatomy cast members are far less complicated. Check out the gallery to learn about the actors’ IRL relationships.

He shares two children with Jane – 20-year-old Joseph and 18-year-old Iona – and he has welcomed two more children with Arielle: 2-year-old Aiden and 1-year-old Nava.
Jesse Williams
In May 2019, Jesse Williams went public with his current girlfriend, actress and dancer Taylour Paige, and as of December 2020, the two are still going strong. It’s rumored the two first met when Taylour appeared in a 2016 episode of Grey’s Anatomy, but the couple have never confirmed that claim. Jesse was previously married to real estate broker Aryn Drake-Lee for five years before filing for divorce in April 2017. The exes share two children together: 7-year-old Sadie and 5-year-old Maceo. The actor also briefly dated Minka Kelly, his costar from The Butler, before getting together with Taylour.

After more than 10 years of marriage, Caterina Scorsone filed for divorce from her musician husband, Rob Giles, in May 2020. During their decade-long marriage, the couple welcomed three children together: 8-year-old Eliza, 4-year-old Paloma “Pippa” Michaela, and Arwen, who was born in December 2019. At the moment, it doesn’t seem as though Caterina is dating anyone new.

Before getting together with Pete, Kelly was tight-lipped about her private life, so it’s unclear whether she had any other serious relationships in the past.
