Rebecca Gayheart moved Eric Dane’s belongings from Johnny Depp’s Los Angeles home, where he lived before he died of ALS.
Earlier this week, the 54-year-old actress was photographed carrying a number of items, including a box labeled “Eric Yearbook Kids Photos.”
She was also photographed carrying a guitar.
Gayheart filed for divorce from Dane in February 2018 after 14 years of marriage, but withdrew the application last year after being diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). They had two daughters, Billie, whose birthday was 16 days after her father’s death, and 14-year-old Georgia.
Page Six exclusively reported in February that the Pirates of the Caribbean star, 62, had quietly come forward to help an old friend by offering “any possible payment arrangement.”
“Eric has one less thing to worry about,” a source told Page Six last month. He “was basically living rent-free in one of the houses Johnny owned up on the Sunset Strip. He told Eric to pay whatever he could in rent and whatever he couldn’t.”
The “Grey’s Anatomy” alum’s death at age 53 was confirmed in a statement on February 19, less than a year after announcing his diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
“It is with heavy hearts that we share that Eric Dane passed away on Thursday afternoon after a courageous battle with ALS,” his family told Page Six in a Feb. 26 statement.
“Through his battle with ALS, Eric has become a passionate advocate for awareness and research, determined to make a difference for others facing the same battle.”
After his death, friends of the actor set up a GoFundMe to raise money for his daughters.
The “Euphoria” alum’s posthumous memoir, “My Book of Days: A Memoir in Moments,” is scheduled to be released on November 3, and Dane made the “prudent decision” to complete the book after being diagnosed with ALS in 2023.
In a press release, Penguin Random House announced that Dane “wants to share these words with his daughters and readers.”
“Publishing on schedule will allow him to continue speaking in his own voice and with the clarity and courage that defined him,” the press release added.
“He worked on the manuscript until the end.”
Along with his memoir, Dane shared his last public message to his daughters in the Netflix series Famous Last Words.
In an interview released after his death, the “Bad Boys: Ride or Die” star addressed teens, saying, “Fight with every ounce of your being and with dignity. Whether you’re healthy or not, when you’re faced with a challenge, fight.”
“You are my everything. Good night. I love you. Those are my last words,” he said.
