“Grey’s Anatomy” actor Eric Dane and his wife Rebecca Gayheart are working on becoming first-time parents.
The couple, who are both 36, have been married for four years and are finally ready to have a baby together.
“We’re currently working on that,” Dane told Ellen DeGeneres during his appearance on the show February 10, adding that the process hasn’t been simple.
“It’s funny because you get the doctors involved and they call you and it’s like, In eight days I’ll have to put in some work,” he explained. Then, he said, for four days, “I will be very busy and I probably shouldn’t schedule anything else.”
