Rebecca Gayheart is lifting the lid on her “super complicated” relationship with ex-husband Eric Dane amid his ALS diagnosis.
The 54-year-old actress and Grey’s Anatomy The actor, who split in February 2018 after 14 years of marriage, appears to have reestablished the dynamic between them after Dane’s health scare.
It is pertinent to mention that the couple got married in 2004 and welcomed two daughters. However, after a rocky relationship, they filed for divorce in 2018 but never proceeded with the legal separation.
Earlier in March 2025, in light of Dane’s ALS diagnosis, Gayheart dismissed the filing and said after a month of filing for termination that she was “grateful” to have a “loving family” as they navigated the “next chapter.”
Now, sharing insight into her “complicated” dynamic with Dane, she said on Big Ideas with Rachel Bilson and Olivia Allen“I’m really trying to show [my daughters] that we show up for people no matter what. And he’s our family, he’s your father. We show up and we try to do it with a little dignity and grace and just get through it, and we’ll get through it the best we can. »
“I mean, it’s super complicated for me,” she added.
She further confirmed that she and Dane have been “separated for eight years” but that their daughters, Billie, 15, and Georgia, 13, live with her “100% of the time.”
