Rebecca Gayheart Shares Update on Daughters Billie and Georgia After Eric Dane's Passing

Seven months after the death of Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart is offering a rare glimpse into how their teenage daughters are navigating life without their father. The 55-year-old actress opened up about her daughters Billie Beatrice, 16, and Georgia Geraldine, 14, sharing how they have all been there for one another as they "hang in there," trying to adapt to this new normal.

During a conversation with PEOPLE at Step Up's 2026 Annual Inspiration Awards in Los Angeles on Friday, September 25, 2026, Gayheart acknowledged that the family is going through a difficult period following Dane's death from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) earlier this year.
