From what I've gathered so far, none of the cast could reveal if they're staying or not--so why would Gosh tell some random pap about it? I don't know, it just seems a little shady. I don't know why they'd be telling people. It's certainly baffling that they're slipping this info, but this is the second report from someone who claims to have heard it directly from them and the two sources are totally unrelated, so idk.

I'm thinking cast departures would be announced after a renewal, so if ABC's holding off until around May upfronts, then we'll probably "officially" hear about the main cast after the finale airs. That's a long time from now for actors to be telling people if they're not actually allowed to. But then I'm also thinking, if their contracts are expiring in like two weeks and they're not interested in continuing, what's really stopping them from telling people they won't be back? Probably not as much as we're assuming.
