Alright, let’s dive in. You know Ellen Pompeo, right? The beloved star of Grey’s Anatomy? Well, it seems her recent trip to Europe wasn’t all sunshine and roses. While visiting Florence, Italy, Ellen found herself in a bit of a predicament. She took to Instagram to share the story of how she was robbed during her weekend getaway. Now, this is the kind of drama we didn’t sign up for, but let’s hear her out.

Ellen posted a picture of two Florence police officers, thanking them for their efforts. In her caption, she explained, “Grazie to the Florence police squad and the Frescobaldi restaurant. My purse was stolen right from under my nose! I blame the rosé, though. But thanks to whoever dropped it on the street, exactly intact. I was tracking my phone and chasing you down… Had I caught you, it wouldn’t have ended well for you!” Talk about dramatic, right? But hey, she’s got that fiery Italian heritage going for her.

Thankfully, Ellen is okay after the ordeal, and her humor and resilience shine through.

Ellen Pompeo's European Getaway Amid Career Changes

Ellen’s vacation comes just weeks after Grey’s Anatomy aired its Season 14 finale. The show has been renewed for a fifteenth season, but Ellen has hinted in the past that the series might be coming to an end after nearly 13 years. In a recent interview with Us Weekly, she said, “There is an end, and it’s nearing. We’re getting there. Shonda and I will make that decision together… I want to be more involved in my kids’ lives as they get older and they need me more, and this world is such a crazy place.” This recent scare in Florence seems to reinforce her desire to focus more on family life.
