Wait, Eric Dane Did What at the Countdown Premiere?
So, here’s what happened and trust me, it’s wild. Eric Dane, yes, McSteamy from Grey’s Anatomy and The Last Ship, showed up at the Countdown premiere holding hands with filmmaker Janell Shirtcliff. But here’s the twist… he was apparently still seeing his longtime girlfriend Priya Jain at the time. And she had no idea.
Can you imagine finding out your boyfriend is with someone else because of red carpet photos? That’s exactly what blindsided Priya a designer and the founder of Naked Lynx who had literally been by Dane’s side almost every single day for the past year.
“I Love You” to “I’m Done”: What Really Went Down?
According to insiders (who had a lot to say), Priya and Eric weren’t just casually dating. They were deep in love, said I love you all the time, and even got matching star tattoos on their wrists. Priya had been caring for Eric after his ALS diagnosis, with full devotion.
But then came the shock. She saw him cozying up to Janell at the premiere and afterparty just days after they last spoke. The public humiliation hit hard. One source said she’s “totally done” and just wants to move on with her life and career. And honestly? Who could blame her.
The Internet Reacts: From Heartbreak to Sympathy
Fans are heartbroken for Priya and the reactions online have been full of disbelief, sympathy, and even anger. Some are calling the situation “devastating,” others are saying Priya “dodged a bullet.” The fact that Dane is still legally married to Rebecca Gayheart and shares two daughters, Billie and Georgia, only added to the drama.
Quick Recap (Because, Wow):
- Eric Dane attended the Countdown premiere with Janell Shirtcliff
- Priya Jain was “blindsided” after dating him for a year
- They had matching tattoos and said “I love you” constantly
- She helped him through his ALS diagnosis
- Publicly seeing him with someone else left her humiliated
Final Thoughts: Was It a Blessing in Disguise?
Sometimes, heartbreak clears the way for something better. Even insiders admitted that as painful as this was, it might’ve saved Priya from deeper heartbreak in the future. She’s focused on her career now and we’re totally rooting for her.
Let’s just say, this real-life drama is more shocking than anything Dane’s ever done on screen.
