Relationship with Rebecca Gayheart

Since 2004, Dane has been married to Rebecca Gayheart, an actress and model. Their relationship, though enduring typical life fluctuations, including a divorce filing that was later retracted, remains strong, particularly in their shared commitment to raising their children.

In a conversation with Us Weekly, Gayheart offered her perspective: “I believe it’s essential to reframe the concept of a relationship ending as anything other than a success. Relationships are like seasons in life. It wasn’t a failure at all. It was a resounding success.” She further elaborated, “We were married—we are still technically married—but we were together for 15 years and created two incredible children. That, to me, represents a successful partnership, and that’s how we both view it.”

Reflecting on their journey in 2018, she also commented, “But we are dedicated to making it work… There are numerous factors. I think it’s vital for women to prioritize self-reliance and not depend entirely on a partner. My return to work is partly motivated by wanting my daughters to witness my professional endeavors. I took a hiatus to focus on raising them.”
