The New York Post reports that Grey's Anatomy star Ellen Pompeo is having a tough go of it these days. While she appeared, along with her fellow cast members, at the Monte Carlo TV Festival last week, the newspaper claims that Pompeo did not participate in any interviews with them.

"It was at the request of broadcasters that she interview alone because she is the star of the show. But I was not there," said Pompeo's representative, Jennifer Allen.

The actress also had a fight with her boyfriend, Chris Ivery, with whom things have reportedly been rocky lately. A witness said the couple was being driven to the Fairmont Hotel when Ellen abruptly exited a car and ran down the street. When the concerned driver asked her to get back in the car with her husband, Pompeo retorted "He is not my husband!"

It has been speculated that Pompeo is reluctant to marry the music producer in part because of his criminal past. While we can't say what's true here and what isn't, we're hopeful everything gets straightened out.
