Grey’s Anatomy star, Kate Walsh, says that now that her 40th birthday is fast approaching (October) she’s ready to get her love life in order.

The actress who plays Dr. Addison Montgomery-Shepherd on the hit TV show Grey’s Anatomy says “I’m a bit of a later bloomer, I need to do with relationships what I’ve done with work.”

“In the past, I’ve been work, work, work – and then I’m done and ’cause I’m tired and desperate, I’m like … YOU!” mimicking reaching for the nearest male body.

A native of San Jose, California, she admits that she wasn’t ready for the ups and downs of a serious relationship. “I realize it’s a juvenile fear, but I haven’t wanted to be in a relationship where I’m doing a downward dog and some guy is just like, ‘I hate you. I hate it when you do whatever that thing is that you do that I hate.’ ”

So isn’t it ironic that her latest and possibly most prominent acting gig involves her being known as one of prime times most notorious maneaters. “Here I am working 13-, sometimes 16-hour days, and trying to date and it’s so new to me to date more than one person at a time. Sometimes I feel like, What am I doing? Am I becoming my character, or is my character becoming me?”

So what kind of men might catch her eye when she finally has some time to work on a relationship? “I don’t need someone with a hot body,” she says. “He can be fat or overweight and have a belly. It’s very much about style and substance and humor, interest, curiosity and really being smart.”

I was just reading yesterday that there’s a proposed spin-off for the Grey’s Anatomy star. The network will test out the new shows prospects with a special two hour episode of Grey’s anatomy which I believe is set to air sometime in May. I hear that she has a clause in her contract where, if the new spin off doesn’t take, she can come back to Grey’s.
