★ In these last few days, Justin has been in his hometown (Springfield, Ohio) for a visit and he’s been popping up in different places and spotted around town. Last Saturday (June 30), he shopped at The Hustead School House Farm Market at Oak Dale Farms.
On Monday (July 2), he was at Ohio Valley Surgical Hospital and posed for photos with the staff which were posted on the hospital’s Facebook page (see below).
The hospital’s Marketing Market Strategy and Communications Manager, Kristin Davis, told local news source Springfield News-Sun that Justin “was so gracious and kind to everyone.” ☺
A few more photos from Justin’s time in Ohio were posted or retweeted on the site’s Twitter account. I’m not going to embed them all here, but I’ll post the links to the tweets: at the gym on July 1st (here and here), another photo at the Ohio Valley Surgical Hospital (here), and at a restaurant on July 4th (here).
Justin posted a video on his Instagram account asking for people to call their senators and demand an end to the immigration policy which separates families.
Here is a part of what he says:
“Thousands of children including infants are being held in prison-like facilities. Now, however you feel about immigration, this is wrong, this is inhumane & cruel. And it’s, most of all, un-American. So please call your local senator at 202-224-3121 and demand that they end family separation.”
Watch his full message below.

Bumped into the one and only Justin Chambers today! Told him that I’ve loved him since I was 12 and that Alex is/always will be my favorite part about Grey’s Anatomy. He is just as sweet off screen as he is on; couldn’t have asked for more! #justinchambers #GreysAnantomy pic.twitter.com/gp5hTMwgFP

★ Season 14 of Grey’s Anatomy has come to an end, and now we have to wait until September 2018 for season 15. Congratulations to the cast and crew of Grey’s on season 14, and best wishes to the very talented Jessica Capshaw and Sarah Drew.💜
ABC released 21 photos and 1 BTS photo from the season finale featuring Justin. They have all been added to the album linked below.
The last set of episode screencaps for season 14 have been added to the archive as well.
★ Many BTS photos from the season finale were posted last Thursday, and here are the ones that feature Justin.
Executive producer and director of the finale, Debbie Allen, took over the Grey’s Instagram account and posted these ones from the table read for the episode. It was the last one for Jessica and Sarah and for that reason it was an especially emotional one.
The Jolex wedding planned by April was filmed on location at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu. Here’s a cast group photo with director Debbie Allen.
Sarah Drew wrote a sweet caption for this photo of Justin and James Pickens, Jr.
Photo taken on location in San Pedro, CA onboard the ferry boat they filmed the Jolex wedding on.
★ The season 14 finale of Grey’s Anatomy is here! This Thursday, tune into Grey’s to see Alex finally marry Jo. But before the wedding ceremony, they are going to get themselves into a bit of trouble. Check out this sneak peek from the season finale titled “All of Me.”
★ In the previous update, I posted Jessica Capshaw’s tribute to Justin, and he later posted this selfie showing a portrait of Jessica he’ll be keeping in his trailer at work. It’s nice to see the mutual affection and admiration these two friends have for each other.💛
