Anne Heche has given birth to a boy. The star and her partner James Tupper welcomed 6 lb 12oz Atlas into the world over the weekend.

Her representative confirmed: "Mother and baby are both doing well. Anne and James are ecstatic."

Anne - who began dating James in 2007 after meeting on the set of TV show "Men In Trees" - already has a seven-year-old son, Homer, with her ex-husband Coley Laffoon.

A source added: "Homer is very excited to be a big brother."

Anne's divorce from Coley - who she was married to for five years - was finalized earlier this week, following nine months spent agreeing on custody of Homer and the split of their assets.

According to court documents, Anne must give Coley a $515,000 lump sum payment.

The couple will share custody of Homer, with Anne paying Coley $3,500 a month in child support.

Anne, 39, filed for divorce in 2007 citing irreconcilable differences.
