Actor Patrick Dempsey was named the most attractive man of 2023 by People magazine. The title was revealed on Jimmy Kimmel’s live show.

The star of “Grey’s Anatomy,” a 57-year-old Patrick Dempsey, also graced the cover of the magazine.

The actor, who is married and a father to daughter Tallulah and twin sons Darby and Sullivan, shared his thoughts on the award, saying, “Never give up on your dreams.”

Dempsey mentioned that his family laughed when he told them about the award, noting that the magazine carefully conceals the winner’s identity. He said, “You’re not allowed to talk about it at all. Everyone signs nondisclosure agreements.”

Reflecting on receiving the award, Dempsey expressed, “You have to enjoy the moment when it happens— the year goes by so fast.”

In the magazine article, Dempsey stated that he is “glad that this is happening now” in his life.
