George and Izzie to leave Grey's Anatomy?

In what is probably a bit of a blunder, a co-star of TV2's Grey's Anatomy has told the media that Katherine Heigl (Izzie) and T.R. Knight (George) are leaving the show.

James Pickens Jr, who plays Richard, recently revealed this to Us Weekly magazine, also alluding to the fact that Knight is leaving the show of his own accord.

Publicists for the show and the actors are keeping quiet on this one - know knows, maybe Pickens Jr. has just lined himself up to be the next one on the chopping block.
