Anne Heche and partner James Tupper are expecting their first child together. The "Nip/Tuck" star - who met actor James on the set of her U.S. TV show "Men In Trees" in 2006 when she was still married to ex-husband Coleman Laffoon - is said to be extremely excited about the pregnancy.
The 39-year-old actress' representative said: "They are both thrilled!"
James, who was also married when he first met Anne, revealed recently he feels blessed to have met the actress because they have developed such a deep bond.
He said: "In that friendship, we kind of discovered we saw the world in a somewhat similar way. I think we both made decisions that were based on the relationships we were in."
"I wish people could meet her in person. She has such a sparkle and such a love for people, and she works so hard. She is so dedicated to all the good things."
Anne has a six-year-old son Homer with Coleman.
Before marrying Coleman, Anne was romantically linked to U.S. TV talk show host Ellen DeGeneres.
