Rebecca Gayheart and Eric Dane—who broke up in 2018—appear to be giving their marriage another ago, as the Jawbreaker actress has filed to dismiss her divorce from the Grey's Anatomy star.
Jawbreaking news alert: Rebecca Gayheart and Eric Dane may be giving their marriage another try.
The Beverly Hills, 90210 alum filed documents March 6 to dismiss her divorce from the Euphoria actor, according to court documents obtained by E! News. A Family Centered Case Resolution conference to resolve the matter has been scheduled for March 10.
E! News has reached out to reps for comment and has not heard back.
Since the Jawbreaker actress filed for divorce in 2018, she and the Grey's Anatomy alum—who married in 2004—have reunited for dinners, vacations and other outings with their daughters, Billie Beatrice Dane, 15, and Georgia Geraldine Dane, 13. In their divorce case, both parents sought joint physical and legal custody of their children.
In January 2023, Rebecca, 53, and Eric, 52, sparked reconciliation rumors when they were photographed holding hands on a family trip to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
However, the speculation that they had gotten back together cooled off this past November when he was spotted out to dinner in Los Angeles with Priya Jain. The two later fueled romance when Eric and the 27-year-old were photographed together in the city again in January and February, though neither side commented on the speculation.
Earlier in the year, Rebecca shared an update on her and Eric’s daughters.
"They are making it easy on me so far," she told E! News in July. "But I should knock on some wood. Do we have any wood anywhere?"

As for their eldest daughter Billie, who has recently stepped out on the red carpet, Rebecca noted, "She's a teenager, she's starting high school next year. She's just a good girl, I have to say."
And she's cool with them appearing at events. "I took a decade off from working to be home with my kids," Rebecca explained. "They're like, 'But what do you do, mom?' And I'm like, 'OK, I need to show them what I do.'"
Look back at Eric and Rebecca's romance…
Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart have never revealed how they first connected, though Dane admitted it's "probably one of the least interesting stories in the world."
"It went basically like this: 'You wanna go out?'" he recalled to Flaunt magazine in 2008. "'Yeah, sure.' Ten months later, we were married."
Less than one year after they began dating, the couple exchanged vows in Las Vegas.
After Dane announced he was leaving the TNT drama The Last Ship due to his battle with depression, Gayheart took to Instagram to show her support for her husband.
"Way back when I met my Monday man crush," Gayheart captioned a throwback photo of the couple.
Gayheart cited "irreconcilable differences" as the cause of the couple's split and sought spousal support and joint legal and physical custody of their daughters Billie, 13, and Georgia, 11, when she filed for divorce.
"After 14 years together we have decided that ending our marriage is the best decision for our family," the duo said in a joint statement to E! News at the time. "We will continue our friendship and work as a team to co-parent our two beautiful girls as they are the most important thing in the world to us."
However, the divorce was never finalized, and Dane revealed that the pair were still friends and "great" co-parents when he told Entertainment Tonight in 2019, "We have two kids. It's not complicated…it doesn't have to be."
One decade after the couple made headlines when a nude video with former Miss Teen USA Kari Ann Peniche was published online, Dane addressed the scandal in a rare interview.
"I often think about that answer I gave. And looking back now, was it a mistake? Absolutely not," he told Glamour of previously describing the incident as a misstep. "Three consenting adults, one of them being my wife? I wasn't doing anything wrong."
He added that his previous comments were "most likely referring to the drug use that was alluded to in the video."
"And was that a mistake? Again, I don't necessarily think I was breaking any laws and corrupting anybody," the Grey's Anatomy alum said. "We were just three people taking a bath."
"I didn't regret it, I have no regrets nor do I make any apologies for my life experience," he concluded. "It's my life experience and I'm at peace with all of it."
After the tape was published in 2009, the couple was forced to take action, and as a result, Dane and Gayheart filed a $1 million copyright infringement against Gawker Media and reportedly settled for upwards of six-figures.
The pair first sparked rumors of a reconciliation when they jetted off to Europe as a family of four. The Jawbreaker actress shared snaps from the trip showing Dane making a silly face at the camera with their girls.
"This is us," Gayheart captioned the Instagram post. "Family vacay 2022."
In a second pic from their European adventures, the foursome posed together with big smiles on the Parisian streets, as she wrote on the 'gram, "A pit stop in Paris!"
The group then made their way across the coast to St. Tropez, with Gayheart documenting their journey on her Instagram Stories. "My people," she captioned a snap of the fam with a friend.
