In the Greys Anatomy Season 16 finale, Owen caught Teddy sleeping with Tom ahead of their wedding. The cheating couple accidentally left Owen a voicemail of their hookup. Nevertheless, Teddy made it clear to Tom she was still choosing Owen.

Finally, Owen confronted Teddy about the affair in Greys Anatomy Season 17. Then in the last episode of the year, Richard Webber (James Picken Jr.) told Teddy what she needed to hear so she wouldnt continue making the same mistakes. So she opened up to Owen about her relationship with Allison Robin Brown (Sherri Saum), revealing she was in love with her best friend.

While Teddy delved into her past, she was unable to understand why Allison was connected to her relationship with Owen. So the conversation left Owen and viewers a little confused and frustrated.

Ever since our wedding day, I tried to piece it together. Our history, searching for when you changed and became someone that was capable of doing things that I couldnt understand, Owen told Teddy. It turns out that you didnt change. Turns out I just never really knew you.

While Owen stormed out of his conversation with Teddy in Greys Anatomy Season 17 Episode 6, McKidd still believes the relationship can be mended. When speaking with Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley on the Jan. 14 episode of Stars In The House, the hosts asked whether he still had hope for the couple moving forward. Then McKidd responded, Yeah, I do.

Teddy and Owen have been through so much, the actor continued. And listen, Owen has not been a saint lets be honest over the years. Look at his track record for a minute. But yeah, Owens really hurt.

That said, McKidd acknowledged that Teddy and Owen will need to work on a few things before moving on. But ultimately, he thinks the two surgeons can make it through this rough patch, considering everything theyve been through in the past.

I think theyre gonna be fine, McKidd said. I mean, I think theres going to be some healing going on, and theres going to be some conversation. But I think Owen and Teddy have been through war together, [so] they can get through this. I hope. But who knows?

For the most part, it seems Raver is on the same page as McKidd. Still speaking with Rudetsky and Wesley on Stars In The House, Raver admitted shes just as upset with Teddy as most Greys Anatomy fans. But she hopes to see her character heal when the Shondaland series returns after the break.

I know she is really messing up right now! I agree. But were human, Raver said. Thats what [creator Shonda Rhimes] has always shown our dark side. And hopefully, we will show her healing!

The actor later added, [Teddys] really stepped into a bad cycle in her life. Whats going to be amazing is how she reaches out to the other people in the hospital for her healing.

No matter what Greys Anatomy Season 17 has in store for Teddy and Owen, at least McKidd and Raver think their characters will be just fine. But in an interview with Entertainment Tonight from December 2020, executive producer Meg Marinis hinted at whats to come and the couples journey will not be easy.

They still have a very messy road ahead of them, Marinis said.

Greys Anatomy Season 17 is expected to return on March 4, 2021.
