Season 13 of "Grey's Anatomy" started without Jessica Capshaw's Arizona Robbins, as the actress spent time with her newborn daughter. However, the new season will have fans see Arizona returning, and with a new love interest.

In an interview with TV Line, Capshaw teases that she will be returning to the show soon. She also hints that her return may also mark a new love angle for the character. On having a new interest, Capshaw states: "My sources are telling me that it's not going to be too far away. We had to wade through a little muck first. But I do feel that Arizona has certainly waited long enough."

The actress also hints that a new player will be coming to the show. When asked who her love interest will be, Capshaw joked: "I think it's got to be a new person, right? What am I going to do, start making out with Ellen [Pompeo]?"

The new love interest is already expected, as Robbins' old flame, Callie (played Sara Ramirez), is not in the new season. On Ramirez' exit, Capshaw said that she didn't know that the character will not be in season 13, and had no idea of the non-return when they were shooting their last scene together. She says, "here are things that are a bit different from the way they were before. But, obviously, [Sara leaving] was a bigger one. So definitely you feel the absence of any incredibly strong performer who is no longer there anymore."

The interview also touched on the upcoming episode, and Capshaw confirms that because of the assault, Arizona feels upset at Alex and sad for Andrew. This will be another turn of events for the show, as Capshaw says that Arizona has learned of the incident while in New York. Seeing how bad damage is, Capshaw hints that it "really fires her up. And it worries her."

"Grey's Anatomy" season 13 episode 3 is scheduled to air on Oct. 6 on ABC.
