Grey’s Anatomy Star Kate Walsh Addresses Addison & Jake’s Marriage Status After Shocking Season 22 Reveal

Beware, spoilers for Grey’s Anatomy season 22, episode 10 are ahead! Is Grey’s Anatomy about to undo one of its most joyful conclusions?

Kate Walsh, known for her role in Grey’s Anatomy, has spoken about what’s happening with her character Addison’s marriage to Jake (Benjamin Bratt). In season 22 of Grey’s Anatomy, her character hinted that their marriage might be failing, which surprised viewers because their story had a happy ending on the show Private Practice.

In an interview with Variety, Kate Walsh discussed recent events in Grey’s Anatomy season 22, episode 10, which suggested trouble for Addison and Jake’s marriage. She explained that Addison’s current direction in life and the decisions she’s making could potentially reverse the happy ending she received on Private Practice. However, Walsh indicated there’s still a chance the couple won’t divorce.

I’m optimistic about where things are going. Her actions are a significant departure from what we’ve seen before, and the situation has completely changed. It would be fascinating to see how it all plays out. I particularly enjoyed the storyline and felt she needed to face some serious challenges. I’m excited to see her actively involved and returning, but I’m curious about the consequences of her choices. I want to understand how her desperation affects her everyday life – what’s happening with her job, the clinic, and places like Oceanside? I’m hoping for an update that shows the real impact of her decisions and sacrifices, because I think many viewers can connect with that kind of struggle.

When Walsh returns for season 22 of Grey’s Anatomy, it’s shown that her work with a mobile clinic – something fans have seen her doing for a while – is causing problems in her relationship with Jake. This is surprising, considering their relationship seemed perfect at the end of Private Practice, where they both had a happy conclusion.

Addison says Jake is threatening divorce because she’s been spending so much time at the clinic, leaving him feeling neglected and impacting their son, Henry. They’ve stopped communicating effectively, and their conversations are now mostly arguments. Addison fears this difficult period will ultimately destroy their marriage.

It’s surprising to see Grey’s Anatomy revisit Addison and Jake’s relationship, especially since their spinoff gave them such a satisfying conclusion. But with each guest appearance by Addison on the original show, the series has been subtly dismantling that happy ending, hinting at a potential divorce despite what happened in their spinoff.

Currently, it looks like the storyline of Grey’s Anatomy will continue to focus on the tension between Addison and Jake, particularly regarding their differing desires for their relationship. Although Kate Walsh is optimistic about what’s to come, her comments suggest Addison will face consequences for her decisions, potentially even jeopardizing her marriage.

Despite this, Grey’s Anatomy seems to be heading in a direction that could reverse some of the events of Private Practice‘s finale. It looks likely that Addison and Jake’s relationship will take a backseat as she focuses on her work at the clinic, and how things develop could change her future path.

Grey’s Anatomy season 22 returns with new episodes Thursday, February 26 on ABC.
