Dr. Addison Montgomery is returning to Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.

Kate Walsh will again reprise her role as the beloved, veteran doctor when Grey’s Anatomy returns with season 22 in 2026. She will appear in one episode, titled “Strip That Down,” airing on Jan. 29.

Walsh last appeared in a multi-episode arc in seasons 18 to 19 . The renowned OB/GYN and neonatal surgeon had a recurring role in the hit ABC medical drama’s post- Roe v. Wade storyline that saw Addison and Dr. Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson) lose a pregnant patient in Idaho while trying to get her reproductive care across state lines, and making subsequent changes at Grey Sloan around abortion and reproductive care.
