In a rare public appearance, actor Eric Dane was spotted enjoying a family outing with his wife, Rebecca Gayheart, and their daughter Georgia. This sighting comes amid Dane’s ongoing battle with ALS, a challenging journey that has not deterred him from spending quality time with his loved ones.

The family was seen at the popular West Hollywood venue, Sushi Park, on Thursday. Dane, known for his roles in shows like “Countdown,” was pictured in a wheelchair, accompanied by Gayheart and their youngest daughter, who is 13 years old.

Embodying a laid-back style, Dane wore a casual black T-shirt paired with beige pants, adding a black puffer coat for warmth at one point. Meanwhile, Gayheart looked chic in black leather pants and a white tunic. Their daughter Georgia complemented her father’s style with a black T-shirt, showcasing a unified family look.

This family outing follows closely on the heels of a recent revelation by the “Grey’s Anatomy” star. Nearly a month ago, Dane shared that he was unable to attend the Emmy Awards for an anticipated “Grey’s Anatomy” reunion due to a hospitalization following a severe fall. Despite these setbacks, Dane’s positive spirit remains evident during his cherished moments with family.

The sighting comes almost a month after the “Grey’s Anatomy” alum, 52, revealed that he missed out on the show’s epic reunion at the Emmy Awards because he was hospitalized after a bad fall.

“ALS is a nasty disease,” he told the Washington Post in October, referencing his diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

“So I was in the hospital during the Emmys getting stitches put in my head,” he divulged, adding that he was “really upset” about missing the milestone moment.

The actor explained that “there was nothing I could do about it.”

The father of two publicly shared his diagnosis in April. “I am grateful to have my loving family by my side as we navigate this next chapter,” he told People at the time.

Gayheart — who married the actor in 2004 and also shares daughter Billie, 15, with him — shared how his debilitating condition is affecting their teen daughters in a recent interview.

“I mean, it’s heartbreaking,” the “Beverly Hills, 90210” alum told People at an event in September. “My girls are really suffering, and we’re just trying to get through it. It’s a tough time.”

Billie and Georgia are “taking it day by day” as their father faces the progressive neurodegenerative disease, she added.

“We have some professional therapists who are helping us, and we’re just trying to have some hope and do it with dignity, grace and love,” Gayheart continued.

Though the “Beverly Hills, 90210” alum hasn’t yet found a “positive nugget” in the family’s plight, she said they’d become closer as a family.

“I mean, we’re definitely dealing with something that has brought us all together, and Eric will always be my family, whether we’re married or not, or living in the same house or not,” she explained, adding that ALS is a “horrible disease.”

The “Urban Legend” actress clarified her relationship with Eric — who had previously been spotted stepping out with Janelle Shirtcliff in the months following his diagnosis — in April.

“We are best of friends. We are really close. We are great co-parents,” she told E! News at the time.

Gayheart and Eric called off their divorce after seven years in March, just prior to him announcing his diagnosis.

“The Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood” actress initially filed for divorce from the “Euphoria” star in February 2018, citing irreconcilable differences.
