Not waisting much time after the December wedding, Katherine Heigl announces plans to quit acting and raise a family. The WENN news at IMDB.com quotes:

The couple - who married on December 23 - both want five or six children, and Heigl, 29, is itching to be a mother as soon as possible. The Knocked Up star says, “I’d like to start talking children seriously in the next year, but Josh feels more like two years, so we’ll probably do a year and a half. I’m excited about having a big family. I’m talking five or six.”

Now this may have been an offhand comment, or she could be serious. There are many actors who have proclaimed that they were “quitting”, but most have not actually followed through. Either way, it brings up questions of Izzie’s future on Grey’s Anatomy. Izzie is my favorite character (although Bailey being a close second), and I actually can’t imagine Grey’s without her.

At the least, her plans for a family seem serious. Would they write a pregnancy for Izzie into the script? How would that change the character? Would/should George be the father?
