I was in my closet the day I heard those three letters: ALS. Eric called me from the doctor’s office in San Francisco; he’d flown down to see a neurologist there. His symptoms started maybe a year prior. When we would have a meal with the kids, he’d say things like, “Something’s wrong with my hand.” He was struggling to use his chopsticks, dropping his food. That was when he started seeing doctors. He was initially diagnosed with a few other things, but he had this sinking feeling that it was something more serious. And I was like, “No, it’s not. I promise you it’s not. I can feel this! It’s gonna be okay.”

Rebecca Gayheart on her 'very complicated' relationship with Eric Dane: 'I am always going to want the best for him'
Less than one year after her estranged husband, Eric Dane, went public with his ALS diagnosis, Rebecca Gayheart spoke to New York Magazine’s The Cut about caring for her ex despite their “complicated relationship.”

The former couple has two daughters — Billie, 15, and Georgia, 14. Though Gayheart filed for divorce in 2018 after separating from Dane a year earlier, she dismissed the filing in March 2025, less than one month before Dane went public with his ALS diagnosis.
