'Grey's Anatomy': Sarah Drew Was 'Completely Shocked' by April's Big Twist

Oh, Japril fans. How are you feeling after "Grey's Anatomy" put your hearts through the wringer? In last night's Season 12, Episode 11, "Unbreak My Heart," Jackson (Jesse Williams) presented April (Sarah Drew) with divorce papers and, after a walk down memory lane, she signed. And then April revealed, at least to us, that she's pregnant. So do we cheer, cry, both?

Sarah Drew gave some interviews about April's big reveal, and it sounds like there's definitely hope for Japril fans, even if the actress herself was thrown by this new baby twist.

TV Guide asked Sarah for her reaction to April's pregnancy news. "I was completely shocked when I read that in the script," Sarah said. "I was like, oh my gosh. But I loved it. It was this beacon of hope that we could cling onto. So, I love it. I had no idea it was coming, and I'm so glad that it did." She said April is still "100 percent" wiling to work on things with Jackson. In terms of the timeline, she said we will find out in the next few episodes whether April knew she was pregnant before or after signing the papers.
Of course, this may give fans hope that the baby will bring April and Jackson back together. On that note, Sarah told TV Guide, "You'll find out in the next episode a little bit more about how she feels about that. I think moving forward, her perspective shifts. She's really all about this baby."

Variety asked when Jackson would know about April's pregnancy. Sarah said, "He does not know, but the end of this episode is not the end of anything. It's really the beginning of a whole lot of stories that burst out of it in the next eight or nine episodes. When, if, and how she tells Jackson is a subject that is going to be explored in the next few episodes."

If? It's his baby, right?

Anyway, forget all the divorce drama, 'cause the baby is now everything. "The biggest thing that changes her going forward is the fact that she's pregnant," Sarah told Variety. "For her, that new life that's growing inside of her is sort of her great gift and her great hope and joy in the midst of this pain. She's not going to let herself wallow in pain because she has this great joy and great gift and great love that she needs to focus on now. That kind of saves her in this moment."

How do you feel about the divorce, followed by the pregnancy news, and what do you hope for these characters moving forward?
