Hours before the announcement, Gayheart filed to dismiss her divorce from Dane. The pair, who share daughters Billie, 15, and Georgia, 13, had been separated for seven years. Gayheart previously filed for divorce in 2018, citing irreconcilable differences — but they never went through with their legal split.

“We are best of friends. We are really close. We are great coparents,” Gayheart said of Dane during an interview with E! News on Wednesday, April 9. “We really figured out the formula to staying a family and I think our kids are benefiting greatly from it and we are as well.”
