Perhaps she was just eager to talk about anything but the controversy that has been surrounding her hit show in recent weeks, but Shonda Rhimes -- the notoriously secretive creator and executive producer of Grey's Anatomy -- threw fans a major piece of gossip in a recent interview.
"There's going to be a wedding in the near future," she told People magazine. "And it's going to be spectacular."
Rhimes' comments to the magazine regarding star Isaiah Washington and his alleged remarks toward co-star T.R. Knight were published Thursday. The print version of People contains a considerably longer article, however, which included this minor spoiler from Shonda.
The unabridged report also included additional interviews with the cast. Both James Pickens, Jr., who plays Dr. Webber, and memorable guest star Jeffrey Dean Morgan defended Washington's character and downplayed the fight that has dominated headlines of late.
Rhimes didn't say who would get married or how soon, of course, but the prospect of a Grey's Anatomy wedding already has us guessing.
We certainly have some ideas, as you surely do. Who do you think it is, and when do you think it will occur? We'll have to wait and see.

I'm keeping my hands cross for Burke and Cristina. They've come such a long way. If they don't get married this season, hopefully they can get engaged, and married by early next season. Come on Shonda, you can do it.

Joe and his boyfriend :D

I bet it's probably not as big of a deal as we're supposed to think. Maybe the Chief and his wife will get remarried? Or it will be the dying wish of a patient and the whole staff will take part? I'm definitely interested...

I am thinking the chief and his wife will renew their vows.
My 2nd choice would be Burke and Cristina but that's a long shot in my opinion lol.

I don't think burke and christina will get married yet. i think it's too soon/obvious. i think it will be someone not in the main cast.

Of course a lot of people are wanting Derek and Meredith to get back together and live happily ever after and have a baby before the show ends. I can't see Cristina wanting a big wedding. But my first guess I am thinking Mark and Addison then they will go back to New York.

I think its Meredith and Derek because so many fans are complaining about their relationship in season 3--on the ABC GA website over 1200 posts in response to the writers blog, MANY seriously unhappy with how things are going with Mer-Der. Some losing interest in the show....I think this may be Shonda telling fans to hang in there, it will be worth it...

It definitely won't be Mer/Der. It wouldn't be believable. They've been apart so long, and really haven't gone through much in turns of a couple, other then just being apart. If anyone comes close, it would be B/C. Remember Shonda said "in the near future." That could be close to the end of the season, and I can see that happening for B/C at the end of the season.

Maybe it's McDreamy's sister... why else would she come down? Maybe she is coming down/visiting b/c of her wedding... i highly doubt its mer/der or chris/burke... but joe and his bf is an idea too... lets wait and see!

Oh, I really hope it is Burke and Cristina. They would be fun because I think she will be just as big a hand full after they are married as she is before. As much as I love her sometimes I just have to think Bless Burke's heart for putting up with her. How fun! We could get both of those mothers together trying to out boss the other one. Joe and his boyfriend would also be fun. We don't know them as well though, so I don't know that the word spectacular would be used. I don't see Richard and his wife getting back together. In fact, I don't see Adelle being back on the show at all. I'm still kind of hopeful for Ellis having some lucid moments and would like to see Richard be with her through the scariness that is alzheimers disease. I can't imagine Addison marrying Mark. No matter how hot he is, he is just not marriage material. Derek and Meredith will take longer, I think. Izzie and Alex haven't even realized that they belong together yet. George and Calli can't seem to be on the same page at the same time, and Bailey is already happily married to Tucker. The only pair really both in love with each other at the same time are Burke and Cristina, and, well, Joe and his partner. So, I am crossing my fingers for Burke and Cristina.
