Inside Eric Dane’s Love Life Amid His Red Carpet Debut With New Girlfriend

Eric Dane is remaining positive amid his ALS battle, showing up strong at the premiere of his new show “Countdown” while holding hands with filmmaker Janell Shirtcliff. The event marked the couple’s red carpet debut after romance rumors and coincides with a report claiming that actress Priya Jain, with whom Eric has been photographed several times, is his girlfriend and felt blindsided by his and Janell’s outing. Page Six reports that Priya and Eric met last summer and became exclusive in November, right around the time of his diagnosis. They were seen walking arm-in-arm just last month, the last time they were photographed together. Access Hollywood has reached out to Eric and Priya for comment. What is for sure about Eric’s current personal life is his close bond with Rebecca Gayheart. The pair, who married in 2004 and share two teenage daughters, called off their divorce amid his health challenges and he recently got emotional in an interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer about how supportive Rebecca has been.
