The world truly fell in love with Patrick Dempsey during 11 seasons on ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ as McDreamy himself, aka Dr. Derek Shepherd. However, only one woman has truly had his heart for over 20 years and that’s his wife, Jillian Fink.
The TV star and celebrity makeup artist married in July 1999, after his divorce from Rochelle Parker in 1994, in a farmhouse in Maine. It was shortly after that they started a family, Patrick landed his McDreamy role — and things started to get rocky.
Yes, their Hollywood romance has had its highs and lows, but they’ve managed to last the test of time, still being married today. And here they are, in January 2006, one year after Grey’s Anatomy premiered, enjoying the success of the show at the 12th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.
