With Anne Heche still in a coma following car accidents, her family now has released a statement for her fans.

Paparazzi caught up with Anne Heche’s famous ex Ellen Degeneres earlier, but the talk show host made it clear that the two do not keep in contact anymore, so she had no real information to offer beyond well wishes and condolences. During the first incident, Heche’s vehicle went off the road and crashed into the parking garage of an apartment complex. And unfortunately, the news is not positive.

Her ex and former "Men in Trees" co-star James Tupper, with whom she shares one of her two sons, wrote on Instagram "More than her extraordinary talent, she saw spreading kindness and joy as her life's work -- especially moving the needle for acceptance of who you love," the statement read. She is not expected to survive," the statement read.

Heche's family and friends say that she's suffered “a severe anoxic brain injury” and has not regained consciousness since the crash.

Per the Los Angeles Fire Department, Heche’s vehicle was traveling at a high speed and “burst into flames and came to rest 30 feet inside the two-story home.” It took 59 firefighters more than an hour to subdue the blaze and rescue Heche, who was able to communicate at the time of her rescue but slipped into a coma shortly after. On August 5, Heche crashed her car into a residence in the Mar Vista neighborhood of Los Angeles, setting both her car and the home on fire. “Unfortunately, due to her accident, Anne suffered a severe anoxic brain injury and remains in a coma, in critical condition.

The occupant of the house called the local sheriff after Heche showed no sign of leaving; the actor was briefly admitted to a psychiatric unit and admitted that she had taken ecstasy. Heche also claimed that her father repeatedly raped her as a child, leading to her contracting genital herpes when young. But the actor shortly afterwards lost consciousness and on 8 August representatives posted an update, saying Heche was in an “extreme critical condition” and had slipped into a coma. Also in that same year, Heche began a high-profile relationship with sitcom star and talkshow host Ellen DeGeneres, shortly after the comedian came out as gay. “She deserves to be remembered with compassion.” Hopefully my mom is free from pain and beginning to explore what I like to imagine as her eternal freedom.”

Mar Vista resident David Manpearl said Heche’s vehicle crashed through the residence and was lodged in a wall in the back. On Friday, Heche was hospitalized with severe burns after crashing her car into a home in L.A.'s Mar Vista neighborhood and causing it to catch fire.

I was raised to pretend. “I was raised to hide. I think I was insane.” I had never seen anybody so lit up.” I called my other personality Celestia. I believed I was from another planet. I think you’re such a talented person and I hope everything is OK; I hope you come through this.”

During their TCA panel on Thursday, Lifetime announced that they were still set to air Girl In Room 13, an upcoming film starring Heche about a mother searching for her daughter who is a victim of sex trafficking. She was a lot of things but my most importantly she was loved. She told me the only one holding me back was me, and that I needed to be my own hero. I’ve been reading so many experiences similar to mine and that impact is a testament to who she is. Lord knows she had her struggles in life, but it led her to carry herself the way she did, led her to be the woman I met.

Actor Anne Heche dies after suffering significant burns and a severe brain injury last week when she crashed her car into a Mar Vista home.

In June 2022, she also landed a starring role in Lifetime’s upcoming film “Girl in Room 13,” directed by Elisabeth Röhm. As of Thursday, the film was still on track for its September release. In 2020 she was a contestant on the 29th season of “Dancing With the Stars,” being voted off third among the contestants. “I created characters out of the funniness of life,” Heche told The Times in 2010, speaking about her process. In 2017, Heche appeared in the film’ “My Friend Dahmer” and took up a lead role for the NBC series “The Brave.” In 2018, she and Tupper split. “Oh and Heche are great here, giving performances entirely lacking in vanity and self-consciousness,” The Times’ “Catfight” review said. Throughout the ’90s, she appeared in “An Ambush of Ghosts,” “The Adventures of Huck Finn,” “I’ll Do Anything” and others. I hope the fact that I talk about these things in my life might help other people find peace in their own conflicts,” she told The Times in 2004. She eventually became a screen staple, acting alongside Cher, Demi Moore and Alec Baldwin. In 1996, she appeared in Nicole Holofcener’s Sundance film “Walking and Talking,” then in Mike Newell’s “Donnie Brasco” with Johnny Depp a year later. After graduating in 1987, Heche debuted as Vicky Hudson and Marley Love in NBC’s “Another World.” “More than her extraordinary talent, she saw spreading kindness and joy as her life’s work — especially moving the needle for acceptance of who you love. Before Heche died, the LAPD was planning to administer a second blood test to rule out hospital treatments as the reason for narcotics showing up in her initial screen. As of Friday, Heche was legally dead, but her heart was still beating and her body was kept on life support to preserve viable organs for possible donation.

Anne Heche began acting in dinner theater at age 12 and enjoyed a prolific career in TV and film for the past 30 years. Heche has been adept at comedy and drama, lead and supporting roles and big or small screens. Numerous film and TV roles followed, and Heche most recently appeared in the OWN/ABC drama All Rise and wrapped a role in the human-trafficking telefilm Girl in Room 13.

The actress was declared brain dead a week after her car crash.

Most recently, Heche appeared in the Season 3 premiere of All Rise earlier this year, and she recurred on Chicago P.D.in 2019. In fact, two of her small screen projects are still on the way — The Weeknd’s upcoming HBO series, The Idol, and her Lifetime film Girl in Room 13. She was 53 years old.

Heche came to prominence playing twin sisters Vicky Hudson and Marley Love in the TV soap opera Another World from 1987–1991, where she played opposite Russell ...

Hollywood tried to slot her into cookie-cutter blockbusters, sometimes successfully. She was at her best playing competent women in extreme situations.

There was a chance that Heche was on the verge of yet another career revival. “Birth” is an otherworldly piece, and it’s almost as if Glazer uses Heche to further unsettle the audience, a task she takes on with vigor. She never stopped working, but the Anne Heche offscreen soon started to overshadow the Anne Heche on. In Heche, you can see Laura bristling at the restraints that come with the comforts of a close friendship and good relationship. She was faced with mockery that followed her for the rest of her career. In some ways, she operated in the most mainstream arenas of the entertainment industry.

Looking back at the diverse movies that made up Anne Heche's remarkable acting career, including comedies, drama, black comedy, mysteries and horror films.

The 1998 movie billed as an action-adventure comedy was directed by Ivan Reitman and also stars David Schwimmer. It is considered to be one of Heche's most compelling and memorable film performances. Denzel Washington stars as the titular John Q in what's a tragically common circumstance in the only first world country without a national healthcare system: a father whose son is can't get a heart transplant because his insurance refuses to cover the procedure. The movie has a scheduled September 2022 air date. The 1997 political satire and black comedy Wag the Dog follows a president caught in a sex scandal two weeks prior to his re-election—and the team that helps him distract the public from it. The movie is based on Joseph Pistone’s book, Donnie Brasco: My Undercover Life in the Mafia. The movie also stars Heche, James Gandolfini and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Two friends must choose whether to help a third friend who was arrested in Malaysia for drug possession. The film has a powerful message to stop violence against women. Heche plays an adviser who enlists the spin doctor Conrad Brean ( Robert De Niro), who decides a distraction is the best course of action. Donnie Brasco, considered one of the greatest Mob movies made, stars Al Pacino, Johnny Depp and Michael Madsen. Heche plays the part of Betty. All of this was a far cry from her first paying job of $ 100 a week at the 76 House Dinner Theater in South Jersey.

The screamingly underrated actor, who has died at the age of 53, was prickly and brilliant in films as diverse as 'Birth' and 'Six Days Seven Nights', ...

To finally see her singular genius as an actor, the honesty with which she brought her characters to life, her exhaustive range. “I was a part of a revolution that helped move equality forward,” she said in 2020. In 2020, Heche said in an interview that she once overheard her agents in the Nineties refer to her as “the white trash Gwyneth Paltrow” – a nod to the rarefied air that floated around Paltrow, but presumably didn’t with Heche. It’s an unkind descriptor, but does at least gesture to Heche’s approachability, or general lack of artifice as an actor. It was a bit of a doomed endeavour, Heche attempting to convey the rich complexities of gender and sexuality to an audience that, barely five minutes ago, had asked DeGeneres to explain what a lesbian is. Understandably terrified of losing her career and valiantly fielding questions about her sex life from audience members, DeGeneres was living in the volatile present. In her work and in her personal life, she seemed to go to places that few others understood in the moment itself. Missy lives in a gothic backwoods abode that’s seemingly allergic to lightbulbs, and Julie and Helen plot to snoop around her house by pretending to have broken down in their car outside. Later, she would maintain that her older brother’s fatal car accident at 18 was a suicide, despite what her family claimed. Heche was only a big, name-above-the-title movie star for two years, leading the 1997 blockbuster Volcano, and the romantic comedy Six Days Seven Nights with Harrison Ford in 1998. You can imagine it was written to be creepy – maybe the tea was poisoned – but in Heche’s hands, Missy reads as profoundly lonely. It is an unspeakably cruel ending to a life already marked by tragedy and difficulty. Heche’s death was confirmed today in a family statement, coming a week after the 53-year-old was taken to hospital following a catastrophic car accident in Los Angeles. She never regained consciousness.
