The first rumor was dismissed because its a gossip site but it ended up being true. That site also had only Scandal tagged in that article, so it was still a long shot and apparently the Scandal finale will have 3 deaths or so . At this point, I think it's safe to assume more deaths are coming. As for the gossip itself, they're just throwing shit around and see what sticks and go with it. The diva rumors didn't work out, so let's go with sexual misconduct. Or whatever it was. I don't think those gossips are true, and I have a hard time believing that he would get fired for that. If it was harassment of some sort or the "young female staffer" was underage or he was deliberately being unprofessional on set, I don't think there's much ground to be fired at. But I'm not sure about ABC's policies on work place relationships or not. I'm wondering what they'll come up with, next. This may fit the current gossip discussed here. This is getting to telenovela levels. That was fast though. this is just a confirmation that the silence of crew and cast was not privacy or else, but the policy of the network. File this under the "No Shit Sherlock" tag. But at least a couple of the cast did speak up nicely about it.

Eolivet May 14, 2015 Share May 14, 2015 Dempsey can't be the other actor, because he was not fired for having an affair, per the blind item. My interpretation of the blind item is he wasn't fired for having an affair, because if the show was going to start firing people for having affairs, this other actor and actress would've been fired before him. To me, that means long-time cast members, and I don't think it meant "having an affair with each other" -- just "these two had several affairs." Pompeo and...McKidd? Chambers? James Pickens Jr.?

I don't remember much, but there were a few stories about Jillian (Patrick's wife now ex-wife) being jealous of Ellen/Patrick chemistry and people would say they were having an affair. Ellen's husband is rumored once a year to be cheating on her. Re Sandra/Ellen I remember a few blind items about co-stars who were best friends on screen that hated each other in real life that people thought were them. To be fair some of them did have Grey's references so it wasn't out of blue. I know people would always read into the fact they were never seen hanging out outside the show. The only one I ever believed was that Jillian was jealous of the female attention Patrick received. I think it makes sense considering his over night success I would imagine it would be an adjustment for any marriage plus with all the time he's was away in the early seasons between press tours, racing, and his movie career.

I do think this is just internet gossip made up by the tabs. But yes you can get fired for that. There are sexual harassment laws as well as contract morality clauses. And if there was activity that made other employees uncomfortable a person could get fired for that. That said i don't relieve anything Intouch publishes ever. In terms of where this gossip is coming from (because someone mentioned it up thread) this stuff frequently comes from the tabs themselves- Derek dies tons of people are talking about Greys and dempsey sudden departure the tabs then make up a story around that drama to sell their magazines. While some negative things can be leaked by camps (tmz getting reports about his ego reagarding the divorce likely came from his wife and her legal team's camp)-doesn't mean it's true but it's what that camp is selling. The other side of tabloid gossip is not leaks or studio sources but made up shit, like how many babies has Jennifer Aniston been pregnant according to intouch and the enquire?r a dozen at least. No one is leaking that is just made up.

Chairperson Meow May 14, 2015 Share May 14, 2015 This may fit the current gossip discussed here. I saw this. My take is that it's saying rumors are that he got fired due to an affair, but it's saying or hinting that rumors are a great retaliation for a whiny exit.... or an interview that would rile up an already angry fan base by saying he didn't want to leave (the EW interview ). The other two actors are probably actors who got better onscreen exits despite that they had extramarital affairs. So, why would the show care about who's sleeping with who now? I'd guess Sandra Oh and Eric Dane. Both had affairs, yet their exits were considered better than Patrick Dempsey's, as they weren't isolated from the cast before. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/25399-behind-the-scenes-the-drama-behind-the-drama/page/10/#findComment-1145318

Now is just Shonda is the one mad at Patrick. "But the source insists, “The Grey’s Anatomy set is one of the most family-friendly in the business. Shonda has nurseries, not only for the star’s babies, but the crew as well. Family members were always welcome to come by the set.” This is hilarious, the anonymous source insists! He/She was contacted for more details and has to insists on the story, and talking good things about Shonda's working environment. It's ridiculous.

You know that radar does not work for ABC Shondaland right? most tabs make up the majority of their stories on their own. They will occasional stumble on to something real but for the most part they take celebs and people of interest that are currently popular and then roll along with whatever concoction they want. If they were leaking tales they would go with more valid publications. They could have certainly dropped info to People magazine, even US weekly with as much trash as it covers usually has valid sources. US weekly is often the first to report on celeb break ups, divorces and all things ugly because people sell the stories to them and they chase the story. If there is a bit of celeb gossip and it's from the enquirer,intouch, radar, hollywoodlife or crazydaysandnights I pay it no mind-if its coming from US, eonline TMZ or People well then it may very well be true. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/25399-behind-the-scenes-the-drama-behind-the-drama/page/10/#findComment-1145582

Elle8 May 14, 2015 Share May 14, 2015 (edited) I'm not sure why some are determined to attribute these rumours to Shonda/ABC. Patrick's contract was terminated. We don't know why and we might never know why but I'm not going to suddenly find Shonda/ABC the most evil of evil because Patrick's rep released a statement that makes him the innocent party (it's their job to do so). Neither will I sit here and believe the rumours about Patrick either. I just think people's love for Derek is stopping them from seeing that tabloids make up stories all on their own, they don't need any outside help. I reapeat, I don't know in the specifics how the smear campaigns works, so you maybe you're right. I'm just thinking, if the tabloids are making up stories on their own just to buzz around topics, why should they say: "But the source insists, “The Grey’s Anatomy set is one of the most family-friendly in the business. Shonda has nurseries, not only for the star’s babies, but the crew as well. Family members were always welcome to come by the set." while talking about cheating and unprofessional behavior. Unless he did cheat in the nursery in front of the kids, I don't see the need of those details. They sound like publicity to restore Shonda's image talking good about her work environment (and I agree that she didn't deserve the defamations she had). Those are my own thoughts about this umpteenth ridiculous article, and I acknowledge that I may be wrong. I'm just sharing a point of view.

noname1 May 14, 2015 Share May 14, 2015 (edited) I don't know how those things work in the specifics, but who else could have the interest of making up those rumors, also using details of how great Shondaland is? Anyone who want clicks on their site to drive ad funds or has magazines to sell. Its why tabs are always saying one celebrity or another are pregnant, sometimes an actress eats a burrito and next thing you know shes on the cover on the Enquirer with a a baby on the way headline and years later still zero babies, same goes with domestic shake ups, loss movie jobs etc. Its just baiting. Or who knows maybe there was an debacle with a staffer and she sold the story. This happens all the time to politicians , actors, actresses.

windsprints May 14, 2015 Author Share May 14, 2015 (edited) So ABC is "smearing" an actor they have on ongoing relationship with? From the EW article PD has an office on the lot, is still under contract with the overall deal he signed and working on new projects. ABC having any hand makes zero sense to me. Its why tabs are always saying one celebrity or another are pregnant Or the same celeb pregnant 50x like Jennifer Anniston, lol.
