Rebecca Gayheart, daughters make first public appearance since Eric Dane’s death

Rebecca Gayheart and her two daughters, Billie and Georgia, made their first public appearance following Eric Dane’s death.

The trio went to the Los Angeles premiere of Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s new movie, “The Drama,” on Tuesday and posed for pictures together on the red carpet.

Gayheart, 54, wore a striped red, white and black dress that she paired with black heels and a small pink purse.

Billie, 16, rocked a white lace crop top, a matching skirt and a pair of purple heels, while holding a white Dior bag.

Georgia, 14, looked equally chic in a bright pink dress and clear heels. She also brought along a small black purse.

Gayheart and the teenagers all put on brave faces after suffering a devastating loss just a month ago.

Dane died on Feb. 19 while battling ALS. He was 53.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” alum shared Billie and Georgia with Gayheart, whom he separated from in 2018 after 13 years of marriage.

But Gayheart withdrew her divorce filing in March 2025 when Dane received his ALS diagnosis, which she later said she did to teach their daughters to be there for their family even “when times are at their worst.”

“We tell them, ‘We show up for people no matter what. He is our family. He is your father,’” Gayheart said during a podcast appearance at the time.

She also shared that amid Dane’s illness, she aimed to make sure their daughters felt “taken care of” even as things became “hard and sad and bad” for the family.

Three weeks after Dane’s death, Gayheart told Variety that her family was “still in a state of shock.”

“I just want to thank everybody for being so kind to us during the last couple of years. It’s been challenging and meaningful, and people are kind,” she said.

Gayheart also credited Dane’s friends in Hollywood with “holding me and the girls up” since his passing.

“I don’t think they’re going anywhere. I think they’re in it for the long haul,” she stated. “Hollywood gets a bad rap. That kind of makes me mad, because we have a lovely community of people, and I’m so grateful for them.”

During a Netflix special that he filmed before his death, Dane praised his estranged wife as he elaborated on their post-split dynamic.

“We’re still really best friends, but we’re not together,” he explained. “By virtue of the distance of us living in separate homes, there’s a lot of time lost there. But I made sure that I can be there as much as possible and certainly when it counts.”

Dane added, “We still love each other deeply. I just think we don’t wanna live with each other. But there’s a lot of love there.”
