Anne Heche’s Son Discovers 5-Figure Sum in Assets As He Deals With Late Actress’ Creditors

Anne Heche’s eldest son, Homer Laffoon, revealed he uncovered additional assets of his late mother as he works to finalize her estate two years after her death, In Touch can exclusively report.

Homer submitted an updated list of assets, obtained by In Touch, that Anne left behind when she died on August 11, 2022, at the age of 53. Anne’s son said the assets were worth an estimated $92,500.

In his filing, Homer said the property includes a 100 percent ownership in Celestia Films worth $50,000, a 50 percent ownership in Anne & Heather Ink LLC (which appears to be related to her podcast with her friend Heather Duffy) and $25,000 in household furniture located in a condo in Downtown L.A.

In addition, he revealed the estate has earned $10,000 in residual income, $1,500 in royalties from Anne’s 2001 memoir, “Call Me Crazy” and $5,000 in royalties from Anne’s 2023 follow up book, “Call Me Anne.””

In 2023, Homer revealed an additional $110,000 in assets. He said he uncovered various uncashed checks for royalties, including one for $25,000, and $76,000 in a bank account.

The beneficiaries of Anne’s estate are Homer, who she had with her ex Coleman Laffon, and Atlas Tupper, who she had with ex James Tupper.

James opposed Homer being appointed as administrator of Anne’s estate. The actress did not leave behind a will.

In court, James submitted an email he claimed Anne sent appointing him as administrator of her estate. Homer scoffed at the email, arguing it was not even signed by his mother.

In the end, the court appointed Homer to take control of Anne’s estate.

In April 2024, Homer provided an update to the court on his work as administrator of Anne’s estate. Anne’s estate was hit with various creditor claims, including three claims totaling $6 million, over the crash that led to the actress’ death.

Anne crashed her car into an L.A. home and was transported to the hospital with severe injuries. She died nine days after the accident.

TMZ reported the entertainer was under the influence of cocaine at the time, but the medical examiner determined there was no, “evidence of impairment by illicit substances at the time of the crash.”

The medical examiner listed Anne’s cause of death as inhalation and thermal injuries. Another claim was filed by Anne’s ex Thomas Jane over an alleged $157,000 loan he provided the actress in November 2022.

In his update to the court last year, Homer explained, “due to numerous sources of income, coupled with the lack of records of financial organization by [Anne], royalty payments procedures in the entertainment industry, and the relatively unusual circumstances of [Anne’s] passing and the resulting potential litigations, it has taken a substantial amount of time and effort to move the administration forward.”

At the time, Homer said he was working with James to sell off some of Anne’s property.

Anne’s son told the court that he was actively engaged in “attempts to negotiate appropriate settlements of the claims against the estate, and has engaged in substantial meet and confer efforts with the creditors in an attempt to avoid protracted and expensive litigation against the estate.”

At the time, Homer told the court the estate was “insolvent.”

The case is ongoing.
