Some private about Rebecca Gayheart:
While awaiting that outcome of the vehicular manslaughter case, Rebecca Gayheart was involved in another auto accident. She flipped her rental car into two parked vehicles. No one was injured and no charges were filed. Her father attributed the second accident in part to her anxiety over both the first accident and her resulting criminal case. He commented that he and his wife did not intend to allow their daughter to drive any longer.
Controversy
In August 2009, a naked video surfaced on Gawker.com with Gayheart, husband Eric Dane and former Miss U.S. Teen Kari Ann Peniche. In the video clip, Gayheart, Peniche, and Dane walk naked around Peniche's Los Angeles apartment, relax in a hottub and discuss their potential porn names. Through it all, Dane, Peniche and Gayheart appear to be intoxicated. Midway through the clip, Gayheart says she has to lie down because she's "so high".
