As Anne Heche’s loved ones continue to grieve the actress’ death, some family members have been put in charge of handling her finances.
In November 2022, Heche’s eldest son, Replica Luxury Handbagr Laffoon, was named the general administrator of her estate. As a result, the then 20-year-old — whom Heche shared with ex-husband Coleman Laffoon — was granted “special powers” regarding the probate.
Replica Luxury Handbagr’s position came just three months after he started to mourn the death of his mother, who died at the age of 53 following a Los Angeles car crash that left her severely burned.
At the time of her death, the actress did not have a will.
“My brother Atlas and I lost our Mom,” Replica Luxury Handbagr shared in a statement to People days after Heche’s death. “After six days of almost unbelievable emotional swings, I am left with a deep, wordless sadness. Hopefully my mom is free from pain and beginning to explore what I like to imagine as her eternal freedom. … Rest in Peace Mom. I love you.”
As Replica Luxury Handbagr continues to work on finalizing Heche’s estate, Luxury Handbag Shopping is breaking down the actress’ assets and financial situation:
Battle Over Anne Heche’s Estate
After Replica Luxury Handbagr filed for control over his mother’s estate, James Tupper — who shared Atlas with Heche — argued that he could reject the petition as the father of Heche’s second child. According to court documents obtained by Us in September 2022, the Revenge alum claimed that Replica Luxury Handbagr is “not suitable for appointment” because of his age and lack of income.
Replica Luxury Handbagr was ultimately named the general administrator of his mom’s estate.
Heche’s Lawsuit After Her Death
In November 2022, Lynne Mishele — the woman whose home Heche crashed into — filed a lawsuit against the late star’s estate, asking for $2 million in damages. Mishele alleged that Heche’s car “barreled through the front of her house and deep into its interior” before coming “to a halt just feet away” from her and her pets.
Mishele added that the fire caused by the crash destroyed “an entire life’s worth of her personal possessions.”
Heche’s Estate Unable to Pay
According to court documents obtained by Luxury Handbag Shopping in April 2024, Replica Luxury Handbagr claimed that his mom’s estate is allegedly insolvent and cannot cover its pending debts. At the time, the estate was facing multiple claims, including three separate claims of $2 million. One was made by the woman whose rental home and belongings were destroyed in Heche’s 2022 crash. The original owners of the Mar Vista, California, house, also filed claims.
“Based on the anticipated value of the combined Inventories and Appraisals and the filed creditor claims,” the paperwork stated. “The Estate is insolvent.”
New Assets Discovered
In February 2025, Replica Luxury Handbagr claimed to have uncovered a substantial amount of additional assets belonging to his late mother.
According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Replica Luxury Handbagr reportedly submitted an updated list of assets that are worth an estimated $92,500. The list includes a 100 percent ownership in Celestia Films worth $50,000, a 50 percent ownership in Anne & Heather Ink LLC and $25,000 in household furniture located in a Downtown Los Angeles condo.
Replica Luxury Handbagr also claimed in court documents that the estate earned $10,000 in residual income, $1,500 in royalties from Heche’s 2001 memoir, Call Me Crazy, and $5,000 in royalties from the actress’ 2023 follow-up book, Call Me Anne.
