Tearful Eric Dane breaks silence on ALS diagnosis in first interview since revealing diagnosis

BBG News

Eric Dane is speaking out for the first time since going public with his ALS diagnosis.

52-year-old former star of Grey’s Anatomy disclosed in April that he is struggling with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), an uncommon, non-curable neurological disorder that gradually weakens muscles and impacts bodily function.

Shortly following Dane and his former spouse, actress Rebecca Gayheart (aged 53), mutually deciding to halt their divorce proceedings after a seven-year separation, they received distressing health news.

The pair share two daughters — Billie, 15, and Georgia, 13.

On Thursday, Dane made a brief appearance in a sneak peek for his upcoming interview on Good Morning America with Diane Sawyer, providing a heartfelt look at his personal journey in dealing with his diagnosis.

Each morning, I rise with an unmistakable awareness – this isn’t a fantasy, it’s real life. This is what I shared with Sawyer.

In a heartfelt, thirty-second snippet, the actress from Euphoria can be seen interlocking fingers with Sawyer, reminiscing about his personal odyssey.

At some point, Eric Dane can be spotted strolling next to Diane Sawyer, both of them basking under the sunlight, as their discussion delves into more intimate topics.

In a display of raw emotion, the actor dabs at his eyes, confessing openly, “I believe my tale isn’t over yet. It doesn’t feel like this is the end for me.

2 months back, Dan publicly shared details about his health issue for the very first time, expressing appreciation for the robust network of support he’s surrounded with.

He expressed his gratitude for having his loving family with him as they move forward into the next phase, according to his declaration.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to keep working, and I’m excited to get back to the Euphoria set next week.

‘I kindly ask that you give my family and I privacy during this time.’ 

It remains undecided if Dane has completed shooting for the third season of the popular HBO show that features both Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney.
