T.R. Knight Leaving Grey’s Anatomy: George O’Malley Character Killed Off

T.R. Knight’s character on Grey’s Anatomy, George O’Malley, is to be killed off. 

The 36-year-old actor had thrown diva fits in December saying that as his character does not get enough air time, he wants out. Well, he got his wish and now O’Malley is no more. 

From Pop on the Pop:

E! news reports that Dr. George O’Malley is officially dead. T.R. Knight won’t be returning to Grey’s next season, which isn’t much of a shock. Dr. George O’Malley flatlined during one of the final scenes of the season finale.

There’s no word on any upcoming projects for Knight, who began his career on Broadway.
