Anne Heche's Ex: Check Please

Anne Heche has sealed the deal on her divorce war, and we know who's paying what.
Anne Heche: Click to view!
According to the order signed today, "the case is settled." Now the damage. Anne will pay Coley Laffoon $3,700 a month in child support. Sounds like a lot, but here's the deal. Anne was shelling out $14,798 a month, but went back to court recently and pleaded poverty since her show was canceled and she wasn't working much.

Anne will pay 75% of Homer's private school tuition and Coley pays the balance. She was paying all of it before.

Oh yeah, that pesky lump sum settlement. Anne's gotta pay $275,000. That's gotta hurt, because Anne filed papers last month claiming she's $364,000 in the hole and only has $34,840.93 in her bank account.

32. He did 5 years with her and then she cheated on him AND stuck him
with their kid. She deserves to pay for that kind of behavior.

She's lucky she didn't marry me or I woulda wrote a book and sold the kid to
Angelina Jolie while it was still cute. LOL

33. I thought he was working....staying home, keeping the house and taking care of Homer.....oh I get it....it's okay for millions of women to do, but not a man.....how sexist can you get? By the way Anne, you play, you pay

34. Ya know why SHE doesn't have the kid? Because she's selfish, and he proved it in court. Oh yeah... and she's fully psychotic. What a sexist question anyway. If women actually wanted equality, they maybe shouldn't have the assumption that they automatically get custody. Pull your heads out ladies, and realize that equality might not be all it's cracked up to be. Wanna be a "woman"? Go to work, pay your own bills (ALL of 'em) and stop whining. Wanna be a "wife"? Shut up and get me a beer and a sandwich.

35. I wanna know why it costs so much to take care of a child. I know it isn't cheap, but seriously $40,000 a year? It is ridiculous to think that all this money is going to the kid, especially when there are separate orders to pay for other things.

36. maybe she should have been faithful in her marriage and not screwed around. serves her right. marriage is all about peaks and valleys. it doesn't always stay like it is the first few months. it takes work and commitment. i've been at it 23 years. and i got married when i was 21!!!!! she got wh

37. Maybe she should have thought about all this before starting an affair, while both she and the 'other' were married to others. You reep what you sow!

38. OK Broeheem.....let's take the sexism out of this. Why should anyone have to pay these ridiculously high child support amounts? Why isn't there joint custody at least? Both parents should be responsible for child support and if that means that one of them has to get off of their lazy butt & get a job, so be it! By the way, I don't work outside of my home. I work 24/7 in my home taking care of my elderly mother & I still find the time to "fetch" my husband his beer & sandwich all the time. I appreciate what my husband does for me & he RESPECTS me for who I am!! Guess what? His mother will be " under my care" in the future too & I'll STILL "fetch" him his beer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

39. What kind of a sorry ass excuse for a man allows his ex WIFE to be the primary support for his child? I am so disgusted with these so-called "men" who are nothing ore than leeches and maggots who can't take reponsibilty for the lives they have created. I used to think Black men were the worst fathers on the planet, but people like Kevin Federline and this Laffoon a**hole are giving Black men a run for their money.

40.
Exactly about the men comment. This wouldnt be "news worthy" except for the fact the Anne is a woman who has to pay. Men pay 99% of the time. It's about time a woman got it stuck to her.

As a side note, we havent heard the whole story. Women don't lose the kids unless they have some srious problems going on. She settled and gave up her kids to keep SOMETHING from coming out in the courts.

41. My sister has a computer consulting business, and a Jersey Mike's submarine shop to run. Her husband stays home and takes care of their 3 children while she travels. He is a great father, so I don't have any problem with a stay-at-home father. He is fantastic.

If both people are broke, then both parents need to go out and get a job.

42. Hey edumacated,how many women out there are sitting on their butts,getting taken care of by their ex husbands?Why aren't you calling them sorry excuses for a woman?Can you explain to me why heather mills desrves $90 million of Paul McCartney's money,how many songs did she write?IWhat happened to the new "strong, independent women" who can take care of themselves? Women have been doing it for years,its about time.

43. OK, let's use Helen Reddy's philosophy (she was a singer in the 70's):

1st hit: "I Am Woman" (I can do it all, I don't need a goddamned MAN for anything, etc.)

2nd hit: "That Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady" (Whatdaya mean Mr. MAN... of course you have to pay my bills... I'm a WOMAN)

A hypocrite ... to say the least. Boy, what a role model. You've come a long way, baby.

44. What goes around comes around. She's a bad person, and it's come back to bite her.
