The 43-year-old’s personal milestones have partially influenced the development of her television scripts. In an April 2012 interview with Us Weekly, she admits:

“I’ve been writing adoption into story lines on my shows and only a few people close to me knew about my plans,” Rhimes told Us. “I think the response was ‘oh my goodness’ from a lot of people.”

Rhimes adopted her first daughter, Harper, in 2002 followed by her second daughter, Emerson in 2012. We can’t wait to learn this little one’s name!

Congrats!
