Eric Dane has been battling some demons offscreen. The Grey’s Anatomy star recently checked into an L.A. rehab clinic.
“Actor Eric Dane voluntarily checked himself into a treatment facility to help him get off of pain medication that he was prescribed for a sports injury that he suffered over the recent hiatus. He reports back to work next week. Business as usual," Eric's spokesperson told Star magazine, confirming the actor's 30-day stint at the facility.
Grey's Anatomy filming resumed yesterday, and Eric is a busy dad to his baby girl, Billie, with Rebecca Gayheart.
Rebecca is reportedly pregnant again with the couple's second child.
So it's a good thing Eric took the initiative to get his life on track.

"Eric felt things spiraling out of control and decided he needed to get some help,” a family friend told Star.
