Ellen Pompeo & Chris Ivery: Married in New York City
It looks like Ellen Pompeo had a lot more to celebrate last weekend than her 38th birthday! And we wondered what they were doing in New York.
The star of Grey's Anatomy and her longtime boyfriend/fiance, music producer Chris Ivery, quietly got married on Friday at New York's City Hall, where none other than Mayor Michael Bloomberg served as their witness.
Appropriately, Pompeo and Ivery got engaged almost exactly a year ago while celebrating the actress' 37th birthday. Ellen Pompeo, an Everett, Mass., native, repeatedly professed that she and Chris Ivery would prefer a quiet wedding.
And how low-key it was.
A city clerk performed the minutes-long ceremony with only Michael Bloomberg - like Pompeo and Ivery, a Boston-area native (he grew up in Medford, Mass.) - and First Deputy Mayor Patti Harris accompanying the couple.
Congratulations to Ellen Pompeo and Chris Ivery from all of us!
"They are over the moon," Ellen Pompeo's spokeswoman, Jennifer Allen, told the Boston Globe yesterday. The discreet newlyweds were spotted courtside at the New York Knicks game Sunday night at Madison Square Garden.
Ellen Pompeo was back in Hollywood yesterday filming Grey's Anatomy, which is expected to shut down production soon because of the writers' strike.

To TommT;
That is the most ignorant disrespectful statement I have every read. You must be a real PIG. We Dont use that kind of language here. I realize you have no respect for your self, so, do us all a favor and NEVER COME BACK.
You have a nice evening.

TO ELLEN AND CHRIS;
CONGRATS AND BEST WISHES. BLESSINGS ALL AROUND!!!!! We love you ELLEN!!!!
November 15th, 2007 12:55 AM
Congratulations to the couple. May you have a happy and blessed life together.
TommT, there is much more to love than skin color. Please come into the 21st century.
November 15th, 2007 1:27 AM
TommT, it's very sad that you feel so strongly about race.
With that said, Ellen did say she wanted a simple and private wedding. I am just overly happy for her and Chris. Congrats to the newlyweds and I wish them all the best and happiness.

"Ellen Pompeo was back in Hollywood yesterday filming Grey's Anatomy, which is expected to shut down production soon because of the writers' strike."
Can anybody explain to me about the production shutdown ?
