‘Grey’s Anatomy’ is reportedly adding a new gay supporting character for season 21 following Jake Borelli’s departure
Grey’s Anatomy is reportedly adding a new gay character for season 21 amid Jake Borelli’s departure from the series.
Borelli played Dr. Levi Schmitt, a fan favorite amongst Grey’s viewers since season 14. Levi started off as an intern and worked his way up to senior resident, who guides the new class on their medical journey. In season 15, Borelli was a major part of an LGBTQIA+ storyline where his character began a romance with Dr. Nico Kim, portrayed by Alex Landi.
“Levi has meant an indescribable amount to me over the past 7 years. I will need SO much more time to process just how immensely my life has changed thanks to this opportunity to help bring queer moments to a worldwide audience,” he wrote via Instagram. “Having representation on a major platform like this is so important, and I promise to keep doing my part to tell queer stories — during the remainder of my time on Grey’s and in my next chapter.
George, 52, played Ben Warren on both Grey’s and the firefighter spinoff. Since joining Station 19 as a cast member, he has made frequent guest appearances on the medical drama since his character is married to one of the hospital’s most senior surgeons, Dr. Miranda Bailey .
