Eric Dane’s Estranged Wife Backs Out Of Divorce Process 7 Years After Filing
Rebecca Gayheart has hit the brakes on her divorce from her estranged ex-husband, Eric Dane, seven years after filing.
The actress initially filed for divorce in the Los Angeles County Superior Court in 2018, seeking joint custody of their two daughters and spousal support.
Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart started their marital journey in 2004. The couple dated for ten months before saying their vows in Texas.
After seven years of legal limbo, Gayheart officially pulled the plug on her divorce from Dane just days before a scheduled court hearing that could have forced them to take action.
In January, a judge issued a “final notice” to the former couple, warning that it could be dismissed entirely if they did not move the case forward.
The March 20 hearing was set to determine the next steps, with potential fines looming if they failed to appear. Now, in a surprising turn, both Gayheart and Dane signed off on the dismissal on March 6.
According to In Touch, court documents confirm that Gayheart officially filed to drop the case on March 7, effectively ending the 7-year-long legal battle without ever finalizing the split.
