But They Were In Love With Others.
But in a show that could sometimes gain a reputation for its tortured and doomed romances, Lexie and Alex could, at times, be called upon to give the medical drama a fun touch.
Alex and Lexie were not meant to be the endgame, as the characters were more invested in other relationships. Alex had Izzie Stevens (Katherine Heigl), whileLexie had a meaningful history with Mark Sloane(Eric Dane). But they did have a smaller and more memorable arc. He even makes it clear to her thathe’s more about one-night stands than anything serious. From time to time, viewers see them engaging in kisses, leading to some funny scenes where Alex is caught between Meredith and her little sister. However, he underlines that he wants no part of the sibling rivalry.
Their more serious attempt at a relationship is also cut short whenAlex calls out for Izzie after being shot. As part of Chambers' exit fromGrey’s Anatomy, it’s revealed thatKarev reconnects with Izzie. The medical soap was similarly devoted to Mark and Lexie’s turbulent relationship. Her death, in particular, leads Mark to realize fully that he loved Lexie.
