Throughout his journey with ALS, Eric became a passionate advocate for awareness and research, determined to make a difference for others facing the same fight. He will be deeply missed, and lovingly remembered always. Eric adored his fans and is forever grateful for the outpouring of love and support he’s received.

TMZ reported:
Eric Dane has died at the age of 53, following a battle with ALS, TMZ has learned.
He died Thursday afternoon at a Los Angeles hospital with his wife, his daughters, along with friends and relatives at his bedside.
The “Grey’s Anatomy” star announced he was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly referred to as ALS, back in April 2025.
He explained it had been an exhausting road just to get accurate answers. He bounced from one specialist to another, test after test… until a neurologist finally dropped the bomb: ALS.
Over the months, he chronicled his battle with the progressive neurodegenerative disease … revealing how he was down to just one functioning arm and was running out of body strength.
