The 7 Trickiest Love Triangles on Grey's Anatomy

The oldest (as in time, not age!) triangle in Grey's history. Without this one, the show wouldn't be half as dramatic as it is today. Ellis may be cold and distant in every way possible, but when it comes to Richard, she's a burning pile of love. Ellis's love for Richard is unhealthy and, at times, dangerous. Although Richard loves Ellis, he's intimidated by her infatuation for him. Richard recognizes he has a duty to his wife, Adele, and stands by his marriage. A decision that crushes Ellis.
