On the day of the premiere of Peacock’s investigative docuseries “Anatomy of Lies” — which examines the long cancer scam perpetrated by former “Grey’s Anatomy” author Elisabeth Finch — she has offered something recent: a full apology for her actions. In a post on Instagram, she begins by writing: “I’ve given nobody any reason to consider a word I say. I lied about a lot; things so many individuals have been devastated by in real life. ‘I’m sorry’ appears like the smallest words in comparison with what I’ve done, yet they’re the truest.”

Finch goes on to jot down that in years since stories in spring 2022 in The Ankler and Vanity Fair exposed her many lies — and revealed her to be a con woman who’d gotten her job on “Grey’s Anatomy” after lying about having chondrosarcoma, a rare cancer — she has “been receiving mental health treatment for nearly three years, and I work hard daily to sustain a life where the reality matters greater than anything: The reality is, I married a lady with whom I fell deeply, truly in love.” She then recounts that she fell in love with Jennifer Beyer, a lady she met while they were each in treatment in a mental hospital in Arizona, concluding, “The largest mistake of my life (alongside lying about cancer in the primary place) was saying ‘yes’ to Jennifer’s proposal before I used to be honest together with her.”

“Anatomy of Lies,” directed by Evgenia Peretz and David Schisgall, paints a damning portrait of Finch. The three-part docuseries takes apart all of her lies, especially that she had cancer, a ruse that involved shaving her head, and faking chemo treatments and their negative effects. She also lied about being sexually harassed by a director on “The Vampire Diaries” on which she wrote, cleansing up a friend’s stays who’d been murdered within the Tree of Life massacre in 2018 and having been abused by her brother. Beyer, her now ex-wife, participated within the Peacock docuseries, as did two of her older children.

In Variety‘s interview with the docuseries’ directors published today, Peretz said: “We’ve got heard snippets of her reaching out to people still inquiring about jobs. We’ve got heard she has something within the works about her life.”

Perhaps this post is attempting to steer to that. Finch ends with this: “The reality is, there isn’t any excuse, no justification—nothing will ever make my lies to anyone okay. Nothing erases the trauma I caused-the fear, the pain, the anger, the tears, the time. And nothing matters more to me than holding myself accountable in every way. I’ll proceed to repair whatever damage I can and ensure I’m not the worst things I’ve done. I recognize all of it will take time for people to consider.”
