Yesterday we spotted Katherine Heigl, hubby Josh Kelley and daughter Naleigh grabbing brunch in Los Feliz, and though the new parents looked a bit worn out, it seems like Katherine is much happier now that she's no longer on Grey's Anatomy.

While it was widely speculated Katherine wanted to leave the hit ABC show for months, she tells a different story, saying that the decision to say goodbye was not an easy one. Katherine recently told EW, "I really wanted to [stay on the show], but at the same time I just felt like I couldn’t sacrifice my relationship with my child ... And even though I know I’m disappointing the fans, and I know I’m disappointing the writers and my fellow cast members and the crew, I just had to make a choice. I hope I made the right one ... It sucks."

Hmm, sounds like she really was torn about this decision. But if she's happier with her family and Grey's is thrilled to be done dealing with her drama, everyone wins, right?
