BREAKING Anne Heche taken off life support, 9 days after car crash
Heche, 53, had been legally dead since Friday, though still with a heartbeat, and was kept on life support to preserve her organs so they could be donated, the representative said.Heche, who starred in the movies "Donnie Brasco," "Wag The Dog" and "I Know What You Did Last Summer," struggled for decades with the fallout from a troubled childhood and was part of a groundbreaking same-sex couple in the 1990s.
She became one half of Hollywood's most famous same-sex couple at the time when she dated comedian and actress Ellen DeGeneres. Against the wishes of her studio, Heche came out publicly at the 1997 red carpet premiere for disaster flick "Volcano," taking DeGeneres along as her date.In an interview with Page Six entertainment website in October 2021, Heche said she was "blacklisted" by Hollywood because of her relationship with DeGeneres.
Anne Celeste Heche was born in Aurora, Ohio, on May 25, 1969, and was the youngest of five children. At age 13, she was shocked by her father's death from AIDS and from the revelation that he had had secret gay relationships.
