Following a report which suggests that Katherine Heigl is difficult to work with, her former Grey’s Anatomy co-star Patrick Wilson has stepped up to defend her. Wilson says that Katherine was professional and “gracious” on the set of their new film North of Hell.

He told The Huffington Post: “Now listen, this article about Heigl that came out was because… she sold a show last week to NBC. Well great! So what do people do? ‘Hey, let’s rip her down a few days later’. We all have reputations, whether they’re true or not.

“She was not only not all of those things – ‘Oh, she was late and never came out of the trailer.’ Nothing. She showed up, worked her tail off, super funny, super gracious, great to the cast, great to the crew, and was a total pro. Someone that’s been doing it forever. You walk away and you go, ‘Well that’s a great actress and a great person to work with’.”
