Ellen Pompeo Explains Why Her 10-Year-Old Can't Watch 'Grey's Anatomy'

The actress shared on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' that her younger daughter isn’t ready to see her on-screen performances, including scenes in her underwear.

Ellen Pompeo revealed she does not allow her 10-year-old daughter, Sienna, to watch 'Grey's Anatomy,' citing her on-screen intimate scenes as a key reason.
Pompeo's older daughter, Stella, 15, has watched the show, but she believes her younger child is not ready yet, despite many of Sienna's classmates having seen it.
The actress, who played Dr. Meredith Grey for nearly 20 years, stepped back as a series regular in 2023 to spend more time with her family but continues to guest star and executive produce the show.
Pompeo acknowledged that Hollywood is a unique environment for raising children but also emphasized its inspirational aspect, where kids see dreams being realized around them.
She is currently focusing on family life and her latest project, 'Good American Family,' which is set to debut on Hulu on March 19.
