Grey’s Anatomy is one of the Tv shows that has kept viewers glued to their seats for many years. The program focuses on the personal and professional lives of surgical interns and their medical mentors.
Ellen Pompeo (Meredith Grey) turned 50 this year. She began filming Grey’s Anatomy in 2005 when she was 34 years old. She is 51 years old presently and one of the highest-paid actors in the world. On the show, Meredith is estimated to be just around 40 years old which hasn’t been officially confirmed.
A poster on Reddit came up with a well-calculated guess analyzing events from the show to determine her age. According to the poster
“When they introduced Maggie, they said she was born in November 1983, and Meredith was 5, so that would mean she was born in 1978.”
If Meredith truly was 29 at the show’s outset, that would mean she’s now 42.
It has been assumed that Meredith was born in 1978, and Derek, in 1966 which means Derek died at 49 during season 11. From the information retrieved from the show in Season 11, it would also mean there was a 12-year age gap between Derek and Meredith.
