A post shared by Anne Heche (@anneheche)Anne Heche, the actor who famously dated Ellen DeGeneres from 1997 to 2000, has another woman in her life.
After breaking up with Ellen, Heche (All Rise, The Brave) married cameraman Coleman “Coley” Laffoon and then partnered with actor James Tupper until 2018.Just recently, Heche added “partner” to her Instagram bio, which clearly refers to Ami Goodheart, a talented 1920s-style dancer who is now a successful costume designer (Legendary) and lives in the same L.A.
building as Anne. Just as Anne held hands with Ellen at the 1997 premiere of Volcano (which Anne co-starred in), Anne hit the red carpet with Goodheart at the Costume Designers Guild Awards in Santa Monica on March 9.I reached out to Anne for comment about the two of them and got a cryptic reply. (“You like our 11:00 LIVE?????” she said. “Huh?” I wrote back but got no answer.
Anne was referring to the fact that she and Ami have been doing “11:00 Live” Instagram chats together.) Asked on Instagram if they’re in love, Ami — an out lesbian who once co-hosted a queer dance class called Freak Flag — “liked” the comment but didn’t elaborate.
