Ellen Pompeo, 37, and her boyfriend of nearly three years, Chris Ivery, are engaged, Pompeo’s rep confirms to Us Weekly. Ivery proposed on Friday, which was also the actress’ birthday. Pompeo plays Meredith Grey on the hit ABC medical dramedy Grey’s Anatomy. She has also starred in Old School and Moonlight Mile. Ivery, 38, is a music producer. The couple met in an L.A. grocery store. Though Pompeo wasn’t interested in a date originally, she agreed to go out with Ivery when they bumped into each other again several days later. They discovered that they grew up in Boston 10 miles from each other. "I had to go 3,000 miles away to meet a guy who practically grew up next door," she laughed. "But I guess everything comes full circle."
