Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart: Co-parenting isn’t easy

OHMYGOSSIP — Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart are finding it difficult to co-parent their brood.
The ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ actor and the 46-year-old actress have two daughters Billie, eight, and Georgia, six, together, and after splitting in February they have now revealed that co-parenting “isn’t easy”.
Rebecca said: “We’re doing our best. It isn’t easy. But we are trying and we are committed.”
When asked what specifically is difficult about co-parenting, Rebecca simply said: “There are so many things.”
The couple were married for 14 years before their split earlier this year, and in her divorce filing, Rebecca requested both legal and joint custody of their girls.
And although she’s been finding their break-up difficult, the ‘Scream 2’ star said she sees a silver lining, as she’s planning on going back to work in order to show her daughters that they don’t need to “depend on a man”.
Speaking to Us Weekly magazine, she said: “I think that as a female you need to be able too always take care of of yourself and never depend on a man. I’m going back to work and I think it’s partly because I want my daughters to see me work. I took some time off to have my kids.
“A lot of little girls watch [movies] and they start fantasising about Prince Charming [saving them]. I think that’s a message that’s very old fashioned.”
Rebecca and Eric, 45, revealed the news of their split in a joint statement in February, which followed reports they had filed for divorce.
It read: “After 14 years together we have decided that ending our marriage is the best decision for our family. We will continue our friendship and work as a team to co-parent our two beautiful girls as they are the most important thing in the world to us. We kindly ask that you respect our privacy during this time as we navigate the next phase of our lives.”
