Depp's Generosity: Free Rent for Eric Dane

Actor Johnny Depp generously offered the late Eric Dane a place to stay in one of his Los Angeles properties. Dane, who passed away at age 53 following a ten-month battle with ALS, was able to live rent-free in Depp's home above the Sunset Strip. This support was intended to ease Dane's financial worries during his difficult health struggle.

Dane's family announced his passing, noting he spent his final days surrounded by loved ones. The Grey's Anatomy star had publicly shared his ALS diagnosis less than a year prior to his death. He had become an advocate for awareness and research concerning the disease during his journey.

In the months leading up to his passing, Dane spoke about the physical challenges of ALS, including the loss of function in one arm. He expressed concerns about further decline, highlighting the sobering reality of his condition as the neurodegenerative disease progressed.
