Baby for actress Anne Heche

Actress Anne Heche, whose lesbian affair with Ellen DeGeneres rocked Hollywood, today announced she had become a mother.

The 32-year-old gave birth to a baby boy, Homer Heche Laffooon in Los Angeles.

A spokesman for the actress said the baby, mother and father Coley Laffoon were all doing well.

Heche met Laffoon, a cameraman, as she made a documentary about returning to stand-up comedy after the break-up of her relationship with DeGeneres.

She later claimed she had been hearing voices which told her to be a lesbian when she had her relationship with situation comedy star DeGeneres.
