Weeks after he was forced to miss the Emmys 2025, Eric Dane opens up about his noticeable absence from the award show.

While speaking to the Washington Post, the Grey’s Anatomy alum stated he was hospitalized with ALS during this year’s Emmys. He was initially scheduled to appear alongside his former co-star Jesse Williams to mark the hit medical show’s 20th anniversary.

“ALS is a nasty disease,” he pointed out. “So I was in the hospital during the Emmys getting stitches put in my hand. I missed an opportunity I was really looking forward to. It would have been great to see Jesse and get reunited with some of my peers, and to be able to present in front of my colleagues, I thought, would have been a special moment.”
