Anne Heche Lost Sole Custody of Son
has lost primary physical custody of her son. The actress' estranged husband Coley Laffoon was awarded primary physical custody of five-year-old Homer along with an unspecified amount of child support.

Heche will have alternate weekend visits with him. The freelance videographer and stay-at-home dad reportedly received "far below his original demand" in child and spousal support. He had wanted $33,000-a-month to maintain the "marital standard of living" to which he had become accustomed.

Laffoon filed for divorce in February amid rumours Heche was having an affair with her 'Men In Trees' co-star James Tupper. Laffoon requested joint legal custody and primary physical custody of Homer, claiming Heche had "poor parenting skills" and exhibited "bizarre and delusional behaviour". Heche hit back saying Laffoon spent more time at home because she was out earning a living while he was playing ping-pong and poker, checking out online porn and masturbating.

Under the new ruling, Laffoon will reside in Los Angeles with Homer while Heche returns to Vancouver to film the second season of 'Men In Trees' next month. Last month, the pair agreed to a temporary custody arrangement and promised to stop insulting each other in front of their son.
