Eric Dane, 52, Dines with 27-Year-Old Girlfriend Priya Jain 6 Years Post-Divorce

On Thursday evening in Los Angeles, Eric Dane was seen having a romantic dinner outing with his latest companion, Priya Jain.

A former star of Grey’s Anatomy, aged 52, who was first seen out with actress and model, 27, towards the end of last year in November, was recently spotted walking hand-in-hand with Jain during a casual outing together.

Six years have passed since the unexpected divorce between him and Rebecca Gayheart, ending a 14-year marriage. Together, they share parenting responsibilities for their two adolescent daughters, Billie (aged 14) and Georgia (aged 13).

Dane kept it casual wearing a pair of gray sweatpants as well as a printed white shirt. 

The actor added a casual, unbuttoned, brown jacket to the group, and crowned the outfit with a hat perched on his head.

In the upcoming survival thriller “Not Without Hope,” where Jain shares the screen with Zachary Levi, displayed an effortless elegance wearing a pair of light-blue denim jeans and a dark navy sweater.

She put on a pair of white closed-toe heels and slung a big white handbag over her left shoulder, ready for a night out, carrying essentials within it.

She tucked her dark, casual ponytail behind to keep any stray hairs off her face.

Eric and Priya snuggled close while strolling along a city sidewalk, eventually settling into a cheerful chat within a restaurant.

Last year, in November 2024, speculations about their relationship began when they were noticed dining together at a popular celebrity sushi restaurant in West Hollywood.

With broad grins on their faces, the two stars departed from the well-known restaurant and moved towards their subsequent location.

On several instances, Eric and Priya have been seen together, but neither has made any official statement about the growing nature of their relationship yet.

Priya has been featured in several productions across the industry, such as the 2016 television film “Cruel Intentions” and the mini-series titled “Knock Out,” which was released in 2023.

As per her IMDb profile, she is set to star in six forthcoming projects, including the disaster-themed horror film “Deep Water,” co-starring Aaron Eckhart and Ben Kingsley.

Apart from being associated with Evolve X Modeling Agency, Jain is also the founder and fashion designer behind the clothing label, Naked Lynx.

The items are described as ‘luxury resort wear’ designed by Priya, per the official website.  

Six years since his divorce from former wife Rebecca Gayheart, the actor on Euphoria has entered a fresh romantic relationship.

In 2004, he married the actress from Scream 2. However, they divorced in 2018 due to irreconcilable differences being the stated cause of their separation.

The star also had requested both joint legal and physical custody of their two daughters.

In the moment of their split, Dan released a statement to People saying, “After 14 years as a couple, we believe that ending our marriage is what’s most beneficial for our family.

We’ll carry on being friends and working together, forming a united front, to raise our two lovely daughters who hold the greatest significance for both of us.

2019 saw Rebecca openly discussing her journey towards healing post-divorce and her dedication to nurturing their children in a constructive manner.

The actress from Jawbreaker shared with People that a new routine has become our way of life now for me and my family. It’s required some time for us to adjust, and I must admit, it hasn’t always been simple.

I find it thrilling to consider the future since there are numerous possibilities waiting for us. In other words, we have a multitude of choices, and fortunately, my children are joyful and in good health.

Gayheart stated, “Eric, my former partner, and I have managed to become friends. We’re making every effort to share parenting responsibilities and preserve our family, although we’re no longer married…

1. Additionally, I believe we’re excelling quite well. Everything seems great. There’s an abundance of thrilling events unfolding.

2. Furthermore, I feel we’re doing a commendable job. Life is wonderful right now. A lot of exhilarating things are taking place.

3. In addition, I think we’re managing quite well. Life is great. There’s an incredible amount of interesting things happening.

4. Moreover, I believe we’re on the right track. Life is enjoyable. A multitude of fascinating events are occurring.

5. Besides, I feel we’re doing a splendid job. Life is delightful. A lot of intriguing things are taking place.

Looking back at 2022, I found myself part of an unexpected reunion when the once-paired duo chose to embark on a luxurious European vacation together, accompanied by their lovely daughters.

Next summer, I couldn’t help but find myself captivated by the sight of Eric and Rebecca strolling hand-in-hand during our shared family getaway in Cabo San Lucas. This heartwarming display fueled whispers of reconciliation among us, igniting a glimmer of hope that their love story might have another chapter.

Dan is recognized not only for his acting skills but also for his role as Cal Jacobs in the HBO Max series “Euphoria.” Production for the third season of this popular show is set to begin at the beginning of this year.

He has also starred in Burlesque (2010), Bad Boys: Ride Or Die (2024), and Grey’s Anatomy. 

From season three through the eighth season, he portrayed the character of Dr. Mark Sloan on the medical drama series, but his role ended when the writers decided to remove him from the program.

On the Armchair Expert podcast in June 2024, Eric expressed that he felt more like he had been asked to step down rather than choosing to leave himself.

Speaking candidly about his previous struggles with substance abuse, Dane confessed, ‘I was battling those issues. My past certainly wasn’t helpful in moving forward.’

After spending a lot of time on the show, like many other actors do, it can become quite costly for the network.

He remarked, ‘The network understands that the show will proceed with its course regardless of who they maintain in it. As far as they have their Grey character, everything is satisfactory for them.’

Prior to landing the role on Grey’s Anatomy, Dane had been abstaining from alcohol. However, he fell back into his old habits during the Writers Guild of America strike in 2007.

The actor clarified that he wasn’t the person they initially hired, which is why he comprehended when he was dismissed. He spoke highly of Shonda Rhimes, saying she was exceptional in her protection. Not only did she defend us openly, but also privately.

‘I have a deep affection for Shonda Rhimes, who has provided me with protection. However, it seems that I may no longer be employed there. The dismissal wasn’t formal as in “You’re fired”; instead, it was more like, “You won’t be returning.”‘

The man with two children went on to say, “During the eight years I spent on Grey’s Anatomy, I was more troubled than I was clear-headed. That period marked the beginning of a downward spiral in my life.

He also attributed to his sudden rise to fame as the cause for him to step away from being sober. 

I found it extremely daunting, and deep down, I wished I could deny its existence and feign comfort around it. Pretend as if I were familiar, though in reality, I am not.
