But who would be a more suitable match for the Chief ? From Carol Shepherd to Gemma Larson , here are 10 masses Richard should have stop up with instead of Catherine .

Addison Montgomery

If Addison was just a little bit older or Richard a little scrap younger , these two would have been a cute couple . As many fan know , Webber always had a easygoing smirch for Addison . He was the first person to permit her fuck where Derek was and updated her about Meredith .

Addison and Webber also form a friendship in the aftermath of his split with Adele , where the OB / GYN help to get his life on cart track . If the writers did n’t go down the wise man - mentee road , they could have found comfort in each other .

Evelyn Hunt

Another person Richard could have been matched with was Owen ’s female parent , Evelyn . Although Evelyn has only appeared in 9 episodes , fans have learned a lot about her life . They roll in the hay that she serve in the Vietnam War and had been a chaparral nursemaid at some point in her life .

She also revealed that their family had live five Roman mile from Grey - Sloan , meaning she could have operate into Richard at some gunpoint . Since Richard has been looking for something to fill the void Adele allow for , maybe he could have met Evelyn in the penning course of study instead of John .

Carolyn Shepherd

How funny would it be if Richard and Carolyn got together in the early stage of the show ? Do the writer not realize what comedy amber they could have had ifDerekfound out Webber was go out his female parent ? Now that the idea is found , here are a dyad of reasons why these two should have been matched .

For one , they both realise what it ’s like to suffer someone they sincerely loved . Two , Carolyn was also a navy nurse for 25 year so she would have understand the pressures of the problem . Three , they merit their own happiness after spending years position other multitude ’s needs ahead of their own .

Marie Cerone

Although Marie and Webber never shared any covert prison term , it was clear from his discussions with Meredith that he knew her . In fact , they came across each other more than once since she was Ellis Grey ’s best friend . While Ellis ' journals suggest Marie thought Richard was a misdirection from body of work , what if Marie ’s blood feud was for a unlike reason .

Instead of an affair with Ellis , what if Richard and Cerone had fallen in love but their family relationship end when she pass on for Spain ? Then , when she returned in season 14 , the writers could have allowed them to reconnect . It could have made another epic romanticism .

Diane Pierce

Another womanhood the writers could have had as a romantic interest was Diane Pierce . As many fans know , Diane was Maggie ’s adopted mother , who came to Seattle after she chance on she was terminally ill . While she was admitted to the hospital , Diane adhere now with Maggie ’s colleagues , including Richard .

Although they only shared a couplet of picture , fans could see there was a natural alchemy . She was a kind and charming mortal , bringing a smile to everyone ’s case . If she arrived year before and revealed he had a girl , they could have raised her together .

Gemma Larson

With Catherine and Richard separation looking permanent , could his next love stake be Gemma ? It ’s not as if a romance between them would be completely out of the blue since he and the accountant have already kiss . Fans have also noticed a spark between the two , specially since Gemma helped make his transition to Pac North easier .

It is authoritative to note that Gemma and Richard have more things in common than he does with Catherine . She infer his demons because she is a recovering alcoholic . They had the same supporter , mean they deal the same sorrow . Most significantly , Gemma does n’t disesteem his life history or belittle him . There could be a hereafter here …

Miranda Bailey

Again , ifMirandawas just a little bit older or Webber was younger , they would have made quite the twosome . With the staff already call them " work hubby and wife , " it ’s obvious that people finger like their partnership mime a marriage . Even Adele at one level thought they were having an occasion because she recognize they had chemistry .

Adele believed the two would go to the ends of the world for each other - and she was proper . Despite all the bickering and bickering , Richard and Bailey will always be there in the darkest of times . She is his " soul . "

Olive Warner

She was also the one Richard call whenever he was go through a rough patch - talking at least three times a week . This romance could have been beneficial to Webber ’s character , especially since he always looked comfy around her .

Ellis Grey

Although she is similar to Catherine , another soul Richard could have ended up with was Ellis . Richard and Ellis were another iconic honey , with the couple ’s romance starting when they were both in their residency . From her journals , Ellis stated it had been a passionate thing and that they were planning on starting a life sentence together .

If Webber had known that she had been pregnant with Maggie , he would have followed her to Boston and serve raise Meredith . Even " If / Then " showed them to be merrily married …

Adele Webber

If there was one person Richard should have end up with , it was Adele . Every fan knows that she was the love of his life . She was always seen as a kind and considerate fair sex . However , she was also view to have a fiery mental attitude , which always occur out when she thought someone was trying to double up - cross her .

Although his affair and their brief interval deeply affected their man and wife , Richard and Adele still managed to find out their way back to one another . It ’s just a shame she got Alzheimer ’s and died because Webber has n’t been felicitous since .
