Anne Heche pays Bigtime in her Divorce Settlement

Anne Heche's five-year marriage to Coleman Laffoon is officially over, but not without a pinch to her pocketbook.


A judge ruled that Heche must pay $275,000 to her ex-husband, along with monthly child-support payments of $3,700 for the care of their 6-year-old son, Homer, according to court documents released Friday.


Heche will also have to pay 75 per cent of Homer's private-school tuition. The couple agreed to split the cost of any "agreed upon extracurricular activities" for their son.


Heche, 39, and Laffoon, 34, were married Sept. 1, 2001. He filed for divorce on Feb. 2, citing irreconcilable differences.


Heche starred in TV's "Men in Trees." She and Laffoon, a cameraman, met while working on a documentary about Ellen DeGeneres - with whom Heche was romantically linked for three years.
