Shonda Rhimes Children: Meet Emerson Pearl Rhimes, Harper Rhimes

May 2024 · 1 minute read

Shonda Rhimes, a renowned American television producer, screenwriter, and author has three kids Emerson Pearl, Beckett and Harper.

Harper, Rhimes’ eldest daughter, was adopted in 2002. Rhimes adopted her daughter Emerson in 2012, ten years later. A year later, she welcomed Beckett via surrogacy in 2013.

She told PEOPLE magazine that none of her kids have ever watched Grey’s Anatomy.

“My youngest daughters are 8 and 9, so they’re far too young to watch it or even care, which is good,” Rhimes said.

“I have a 19-year-old who finds it horrifying that I’ve written a show that all of her friends have seen multiple times. And so she has never seen it. And I have to say, I think that might be the best compliment ever,” Rhimes told the outlet.

Taking the show’s adult content Rhimes thinks it’s best that her kids don’t watch the hit medical drama.

“I think about it like, her mother wrote a show that tells all her friends what to think about love and sex. So she’s not interested in watching it, and I think that that’s a very good thing,” she added.
