Gayheart said, "We are best of friends. We are really close. We are great coparents. I think it’s important to not look at a relationship that ends as a failure."
The Scream 2 star added, "It's just a season. It wasn't a failure. It was a huge success. We were married for, I mean, we are still married, but together for 15 years, and we had two beautiful kids so I think that's a successful relationship, and that's how we look at it."
Notably, Gayheart's remarks came a day before the Grey's Anatomy alum informed his fans regarding his ALS diagnosis in a talk with PEOPLE.
Dane, 52, said, "I have been diagnosed with ALS. I am grateful to have my loving family by my side as we navigate this next chapter.”
“I feel fortunate that I am able to continue working and am looking forward to returning to set of Euphoria next week. I kindly ask that you give my family and I privacy during this time,” the Burlesque star noted.

Before concluding, it is significant to mention that Rebecca Gayheart, who tied the knot with Eric Dane in 2004, filed for divorce in 2018.
However, as per the report of PEOPLE, the mother of two requested the court to dismiss the divorce petition with no prejudice in March this year.
