Kim Raver Returns To 'Grey's Anatomy' As A Series Regular: Here's The Scoop

Kim Raver's Character Dr. Teddy Altman Is Returning to Grey's Anatomy

Hey there, fans of Grey's Anatomy! Let me tell you something exciting. Remember Dr. Teddy Altman? The brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon played by the talented Kim Raver? Well, she's back! After making guest appearances throughout Season 14, Kim is returning to Grey's Anatomy full-time for Season 15, and trust me, she's as thrilled about it as we are.

What Happened in the Grey's Anatomy Season 14 Finale?

Here's a little recap for you: If you tuned in for the Season 14 finale, you might have guessed this was coming. Teddy, the former head of cardio at Grey Sloan Memorial, made a triumphant return to Seattle. And guess what? Miranda Bailey, who's been juggling her responsibilities as the Chief of Surgery, decided it was time to step back and take a little break from the stress. So, she handed over the reins to Teddy, offering her the role of Interim Chief of Surgery.

But wait, there's more! In a jaw-dropping twist at the end of the finale, Teddy revealed that she's pregnant. Now, we can only assume the baby's dad is none other than Dr. Owen Hunt. Talk about drama unfolding right before our eyes!

    And she didn't stop there. Kim took to Instagram to express her gratitude. She posted a sweet video of herself sending "a million kisses" to her fans. In the caption, she wrote, "I'm so grateful to all of you, Shondaland, and the incredible cast for the love and support!"

    Kim's Journey with Grey's Anatomy

    Let's rewind a bit. Kim originally joined the Grey's Anatomy family during Seasons 6 through 8. Her character, Teddy, stepped in between Owen, her unrequited Army love, and Dr. Cristina Yang, her mentee. However, in the Season 8 finale, Teddy left for a job with MEDCOM in Germany. At that time, Grey's creator Shonda Rhimes explained that Kim was ready to give Teddy Altman a much-needed break. Now, with the Grey's Anatomy Season 15 premiere, Kim will become the first former series regular to return full-time.

    And let's not forget, the drama is just getting started. Teddy and Owen aren't exactly on the best terms, especially after discovering he only flew out to Germany to woo her at the urging of his ex-wife, Dr. Amelia Shepherd. Meanwhile, Amelia admitted to having genuine feelings for Owen in the Season 14 finale. And then there's Dr. Maggie Pierce, Teddy's successor in the head of cardio role. Things are about to heat up when Grey's returns to ABC next fall!
