"Grey's Anatomy" star Ellen Pompeo married her Black fiance Chris Ivery at New York's City Hall with Mayor Michael Bloomberg as a witness. Ivery is a record producer. Pictured at left, the interracial couple appeared together on Oprah about a year ago. It has only been about 40 years of so that such a marriage was legal in the USA. Now why do you think it was against the law for Blacks and whites to marry?
This real life marriage kind of mirrors the United Nations feel of the show, which is written and directed by a Black woman, where the chief resident is Black, a Chinese/Black couple (until Isiah Washington got himself fired), a Mexican American and a gay guy (well he's not gay on the show) and, well, you get the idea. Well we wish the happy couple well. Now go and produce some little mulattos.
